Jahmyr Gibbs stormed his way to the overall RB1 finish by scoring 46.0 PPR points while running back David Montgomery was sidelined by an MCL sprain in Week 18 last year. Rather than viewing Gibbs’ fantasy-point outpouring as an extraordinary ceiling indicator, the fantasy community has pushed Gibbs down to the consensus 1.05 pick this year. Jackson smartly exploits Gibbs’ mispriced ADP, taking him as the 1.01 while Montgomery enters his age-28 season. Bijan Robinson is likewise a candidate to finish as fantasy football’s top non-quarterback scorer, playing in an expectedly improved offense with quarterback Michael Penix Jr.

under center. Crawford gets Robinson at value with the 1.04. Malik Nabers totaled 165 targets in his 2024 rookie season, the second-most in the NFL. He enters year two with a trio of strong-armed quarterbacks at the ready. Cooterdoodle drafting him one spot ahead of ADP still feels like a bargain. Lindberg stands out as the only manager to draft running backs consecutively in the top two rounds, first selecting Christian McCaffrey before adding De’Von Achane.

Both players could lead the position in receptions. McCaffrey enters his age-29 season, following a 2024 campaign derailed by recurring bilateral Achilles tendonitis, a calf strain and a season-ending PCL sprain. I stay the course and draft Brock Bowers at 2.03 as planned, unnerved by the Raiders pairing but comforted by each player’s potential to finish as their positional touch-count leader in 2025. Daugherty begins building a youthful and elite running back corps by drafting last year’s RB13 finisher, Bucky Irving, in Round 2. Irving spent of his 2024 rookie season earning the starting role in-season. Pass-catching specialist, running back Rachaad White, strained his groin during preseason Week 1 play.

At some point over the coming days, all of your draft preparations will be put to the test as you execute your strategy in an actual talent grab.

That point isn't now, though. You still have time to cram in some final research like, say, the first three rounds of a mock draft, cheat sheet positional rankings and a batch of fun team names. .css-1582m2i{margin:0;font:inherit;font-weight:700;}Round 1 Most of the big free-agent moves and trades have already occurred this offseason and you can find all the fantasy analysis here. That leaves just a handful of potential transactions to be made (Aaron Rodgers might be at the top of the list) before the NFL Draft in April. Considering all that, here’s how I see the first five rounds (60 picks) going if I were to hold a fantasy football draft for 2025 or participate in a best ball league right now.

This mock draft includes 12 teams and is based on a full PPR scoring system. Each team is required to start one quarterback, two running backs, two wide receivers, one tight end and two flex starters (non-super flex). No kickers or D/STs were required in this mock. Each team went into the draft with a particular strategy in the first three rounds, so you can see how a build begins and ends after 10 picks. For example, Team 7 and Team 10 didn’t take a running back. Others went “old school” and focused on running backs early, while others took a tight end and/or a quarterback higher than the other teams in the draft.

I’ve also included the players whose draft value has risen and fallen compared to my previous mock draft, which is based on free-agent signings or trades that have occurred over the last month. Players who have moved up or down into different rounds are also highlighted in the mock. Joey Pollizze's fantasy football mock draft for 12-team, single-QB leagues.

These are the players who are going to lead your team throughout the year and could carry you to a potential fantasy championship.

However, that doesn't mean these early-round players can't bust in fantasy football. Just look at Christian McCaffrey, Tyreek Hill, and Breece Hall last season. As we head into the beginning of July, now is a great time to look at how the first round of 2025 fantasy football drafts might go. In this article, we will go through a 12-team, single-QB mock draft to determine how the first 12 picks should go. So, let's dive in and look at how the first round of fantasy football drafts could go in your league. 1.01- Ja'Marr Chase, WR Cincinnati Bengals

Never Too Early; 2025 Drafts Have Started Remember that year you drafted Christian McCaffrey first overall and he killed your season? And not so long ago, you'd get a few months to recover before deciding if you could bring yourself to draft him again. It’s different now. Best ball drafts are already live for 2025 on some platforms. And we’re already putting together the 2025 projections that will drive our fantasy football rankings.

So why not go ahead and run our first fantasy football mock draft of the year? When mock draft season rolls around, every fantasy football manager starts searching for “the blueprint.” In a recent crossover episode of the FantasyPros Football Podcast, Joe Pisapia teamed up with Jake Ciely (The Athletic)... With four distinct draft slots — 1, 4, 9 and 12 — the crew showed how different strategies play out in real time. Here’s the round-by-round logic, the player debates that matter and where each roster found its edge. Jacob Hubman had the first pick and broke from his usual “running back early” tendencies to take Ja’Marr Chase over Bijan Robinson and Christian McCaffrey. “If I’m at the number one, I’m going to have a little bit of fun and go Chase,” Hubman explained, setting up a Hero WR build.

That decision opened the door for two straight volume-heavy running backs in Chase Brown and Kyren Williams at the round two/round three turn. The rest of his draft balanced floor with tradeable upside pieces like Calvin Ridley, George Pickens and later Isaac Guerendo (as leverage against the McCaffrey drafter).
