Rashod BatemanWRBAL

Rashod Bateman is being drafted as WR92 with the 269th overall pick, which Matt Waldman views as ridiculously low and a strong value opportunity. In 2024, Bateman posted a career-high 756 yards and 9 touchdowns. While he has not been consistently healthy or productive, Waldman believes in his ability and is willing to take a shot on him in the 20th round because he can exit the position quickly if needed. The Ravens have limited receiver depth and view Bateman as their primary hope at the position. Waldman suggests using him as a free square play in best ball drafts with the expectation he returns to his first-round draft pedigree.
