Welcome back folks, it's always football season at RotoBaller! Although it feels like the NFL season just ended, we're already looking ahead to 2022 -- and that starts with the rookies and the NFL Draft. Below in this article you'll see our early 2022 fantasy football rookie rankings. These rookie rankings are being released before the 2022 NFL Draft so things will of course change based on the draft results.
