This year’s group of NFL rookies has had its fair share of up and down moments and while they season is still young and this crop of rookies will continue to progress, there is no mistaken who has risen above the rest. Cincinnati Bengal WR Ja’Marr Chase had one of the more head scratching preseasons displaying issues with catching the ball but since then has been one of the most explosive WRs in the league. On the other end, Cowboy LB Micah Parsons has been a playmaker for Dallas as both a traditional standup LB as well as a pass rusher on select plays and has all the tools to be a future star in the league.

While these two select rookies may have flashed the most through their first six games of the season, the rest of the 2021 NFL draft class has had some great moments from the top rookie QBs to standout pass rushers and lineman. Here is a look at my top 20 rookies so far this season
