2023 NFL draft winners, losers: Players most impacted by rookies - ESPN

Naturally, we spend the NFL draft's three-day weekend focusing on college football players entering the league. It's a time for rookies to shine as they achieve their childhood dreams and enter professional football.

Getting to see where first-round picks such as Will Anderson Jr. and Bijan Robinson will begin their careers was both dramatic and exciting.

What we don't discuss much during draft weekend is the impact those new additions will have on players currently on NFL rosters.

Outside of a quarterback getting new playmakers, we typically don't have many conversations about what an exciting rookie means for a team's veteran players.
