Rome Odunze Dynasty Outlook: Dynasty WR Rankings

Coming into 2025 dynasty rookie drafts, Rome Odunze was one of the highest drafted prospects. According to Fantasy Pros, Odunze was drafted with an ADP of 3.5 and he was taken as the WR3 off the board.

For reference, Odunze was taken over Brock Bowers (5.0), Brian Thomas Jr (7.0) and Ladd McConkey (10.0). All of which are valued higher than Odunze on Keep Trade Cut.

With a disappointing 2024 season, Odunze presents an interesting challenge. Below, we’ll be putting Odunze in my dynasty wide receiver rankings and if you should buy, sell or hold him.

Rome Odunze Dynasty Outlook

Coming out of Washington, Odunze was an extremely highly touted prospect. Odunze put up an unreal 2024 season with a PFF grade of 89.5, a 2.93 YPR mark and an unreal 75% contested catch percentage.

At 6’3” and 215 lbs, Odunze profiles to be a legitimate WR1 in the NFL. On top of that, Odunze had a massive situational upgrade with Ben Johnson.

One of the main issues for Odunze was getting targets in a crowded Bears wide receiver room. Keenan Allen drew 121 targets in 2024, but it seems like he’s out the door for 2025.

Buy, Sell or Hold?

Right now, Odunze is ranked as the WR15 on KTC, which presents owners with a tough situation. From a value perspective, the only player I’d take Odunze over is A.J. Brown (WR14).

With that in mind, Odunze should be a hold. He’s priced very appropriately, making it tough to get a nice discount for Odunze.

With that being said, if you can swap out a higher-ranked running back for Odunze, you should be doing so. Two players I would move off of for Odunze are Bucky Irving (37) and Breece Hall (35).

Dynasty WR Rankings

Even after a rough year one, Odunze is the WR14 in my dynasty wide receiver rankings. It’s tough to rank players against each other, but right now, Odunze is my 37th-ranked player in a Superflex format.

For 1QB leagues, that bumps him up to 24th overall. As a former 9th overall pick, Odunze has a ton of upside in this new-look Bears offense.
