"The 2025 NFL draft class is off to a hot start through Week 6. Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka has the fourth-most receiving yards in the NFL (469), while Colts tight end Tyler Warren is second in receiving yards at his position (370). Elsewhere, the Browns and Giants have embraced rookie production on both sides of the ball. But how do the top first-year players stack up against each other?"
"His 78.2 receiving yards per game ranks seventh in the NFL. He's showing the sure hands and reliability of a 10-year veteran. Egbuka has not only displayed his route-running ability in the short and intermediate areas, but he has also been a deep threat. His 17.4 yards per reception ranks fourth in the NFL, as quarterback Baker Mayfield has been able to consistently connect with him downfield."
Through Week 6, Emeka Egbuka has 469 receiving yards, fourth-most in the NFL, and averages 78.2 yards per game. Colts tight end Tyler Warren has 370 receiving yards, second among rookie tight ends. The Browns and Giants have significant rookie contributions on offense and defense. Chargers running back Omarion Hampton is on injured reserve with an ankle injury and was omitted from consideration. Egbuka averages 17.4 yards per reception, ranks fourth in yards per catch, and has demonstrated route-running, deep-threat ability, and veteran-like hands despite a hamstring injury in Week 6. Carter leads rookie defenders in pressures (13), QB hits (8), and pass-rush wins (16).
