Instant Fantasy Analysis - WR Michael Gallup, Cowboys

[The Football Guru 211]

The Cowboys got lucky on this one without question, getting a player I believe is the last potential lead receiver left on the board in the middle of the third round. Gallup has a bit of Michael Crabtree in his game, but I believe he is a more advanced version of Davante Adams at the same time in their respective careers. While Gallup isn't where Adams was (or is) in terms of high-pointing the ball and will drop a few he should haul in, he has nice burst off the line of scrimmage and shows the ability to get open at all three levels. Better yet, he turns into a running back after the catch. Because of this, he's probably going to be used more in the short-to-intermediate passing game in the NFL. Consider the departure of Dez Bryant and the utter lack of potential lead receiver candidates on the roster, Gallup should be considered a high-end WR3 in redraft. He may not have the highest upside at receiver for dynasty purposes, but he should be considered the favorite to lead his position group in fantasy scoring as a rookie.

I think he is the top rookie WR this year from a fantasy prospective
