Depends on what your definition of impact is.  Here's the top rookies in receiving yards from last year.

Receiving Yards

1. Michael Thomas WR, New Orleans Saints – 981
2. Sterling Shepard WR, New York Giants – 653
3. Will Fuller WR, Houston Texans – 611
4. Tyler Boyd WR, Cincinnati Bengals – 554
5. Tajae Sharpe WR, Tennessee Titans – 549
6. Tyreek Hill WR, Kansas City Chiefs – 526
7. Robby Anderson WR, New York Jets – 471
8. Hunter Henry TE, San Diego Chargers – 424
9. Malcolm Mitchell WR, New England Patriots – 401
10. Corey Coleman WR, Cleveland Browns – 373


On top of that, small school WR's typically do not put up great numbers as rookies.
