At this point, it is assumed that many of those picks will have a chance to contribute right away. OT Spencer Fano will compete to start at left tackle, WRs KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston should be near the top of the receiver depth chart, center Parker Brailsford could compete to start, and both tight ends could have a role in HC Todd Monken’s offense.
Solak has QB Fernando Mendoza at the top of his candidates for OROY. According to FanDuel, Concepcion is slightly more likely than Boston for the award, but they are listed with the eighth and tenth best odds overall.
Neither S Emmanuel McNeil-Warren nor LB Justin Jefferson was listed among the favorites on the defensive side of the ball.
If you had to pick, would you predict Concepcion or Boston to win Offensive Rookie of the Year this year? Do you think either is actually a top 5 candidate by the time the season is over?
