Let’s take a look...
1. Draft Capital -
Round 1 - 7
Round 2 - 10
Round 3 - 5
Round 5 - 2
Day 1 or 2 is basically a requirement. The two outliers are Stefon Diggs (who was injured ACL) and Ty Hill. And we all know his outlier story.

2. Height. I wouldn’t normally think this is something worth mentioning, but check it out...
5’9” or shorter - 0
5’10” or 5’11” - 3
6’0” or 6’1” - 11
6’2” or taller - 10
Just interesting stuff there.
5’9” or shorter - 0
5’10” or 5’11” - 3
6’0” or 6’1” - 11
6’2” or taller - 10

3. 40 time. This may surprise you.
4.39 or faster - 4
4.40 - 4.49 - 8
4.50 - 4.59 - 10
4.60 or slower - 2
M Thomas, Nuk, D Adams are all in the upper 4.5’s. 40 time has limiter, as you don’t want to see above a 4.6, but as long as the player is in the 4.4, 4.5 range.

4. College Dominator. There are a number of ways to measure this, so I just used http://playerprofiler.com .
29 or less (below 50th percentile):
3 players
30 - 34 (50-66 %):
7 players
35-39 (67-80 %):
7 players
40 or more (80+ %):
7 players
29 or less (below 50th percentile):
3 players
30 - 34 (50-66 %):
7 players
35-39 (67-80 %):
7 players
40 or more (80+ %):
7 players
5. Breakout age. Again, there are a few different ways to measure ‘when’ a player broke out. I use http://playerprofiler.com as the standard.
18 year old BOA - 7
19 year old BOA - 9
20 year old BOA - 6
21 yr old + BOA - 2
Ty Hill still an outlier.

21 yr old + BOA - 2
Ty Hill still an outlier.
So. In review. If you’re looking for an elite Dynasty Wide Receiver in the 2020 class - here is what you’re you are seeking:
Drafted in rounds 1-3
6’0” or taller
A 4.59 or better 40-Time
A college dominator of 30 or better
A BOA of 18 or 19 years old
...

A BOA of 18 or 19 years old

There is more to it than just this, of course. But if you are looking at a player that violates a couple of these categories, then just know you are betting on an outlier.
Always try to increase your hit rate. Start with the basics and go from there.
