Hey!
Every round of your draft has a potential league-winner just sitting there.
I went round by round and pulled the 1 pick I'm trying to land in each range this year.
Here are the best picks you can make in every round of your fantasy draft:
Round 1: Justin Jefferson
Jefferson just had the worst fantasy season of his career at WR37 and 9.4 PPG. Now he gets Kyler Murray, who threw for 21 TDs in 2024 and turned Trey McBride into a 1146-yard TE. Jefferson is the best value in the entire first round…
Round 2: Saquon Barkley
He was the RB1 two years ago at 21.2 points per game. 2025 was a scheme problem, Kevin Patullo cratered the whole offense and Saquon still saw 80% snap share (3rd). New OC Sean Mannion should bring back the zone concepts that made Saquon great…
Round 3: Breece Hall
Hall ran for over 1000 yards on a broken offense with a 74% opportunity share (5th). Now he gets Geno Smith, a checkdown machine who just made Jeanty a top targeted RB last season…
Round 4: Ladd McConkey
His 2025 was almost entirely injuries, from Weeks 5-10 when he was healthy Ladd averaged 14.5 points on a 26% target share. Now Mike McDaniel takes over, the same guy who built the #1 offense in 2023 and made Tyreek the WR1…
Round 5: Terry McLaurin
He scored 13 TDs in 2024, then the fantasy world forgot about him after 1 injury year plagued season in 2025. But Deebo and Ertz are now gone (171 targets vacated) and new OC David Blough has said publicly he wants McLaurin at 10 targets a game…
Round 6: Christian Watson
In just 10 games last year Watson was the WR17 at 11.5 PPG, and from Week 11 on he hit 13.2 points per game. Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks are gone & the Packers just gave Watson a massive extension. The injury risk is the only reason he's this cheap…
Round 7: Tony Pollard
Pollard just quietly banked his 4th straight 1000+ yard season. He's been healthy in 68 of his last 70 games. Now Brian Daboll takes over, his 2025 Giants ranked 2nd in the NFL in rush attempts last season…
Round 8: Rico Dowdle
Dowdle has back-to-back 1300-yard seasons and is going after pick 80. Vegas has him projected for more rushing yards than Jaylen Warren in Pittsburgh, and Mike McCarthy fed Dowdle towards the end of his 2024 season in Dallas…
Round 9: Jakobi Meyers
Meyers is one of the safest WRs in fantasy, and basically free at pick 106. As a full-time starter in Jacksonville he saw a team-high 24% target share. Trevor Lawrence threw for 4007 yards and 29 TDs last year, expect him to build on this in 2025…
Round 10: Kyler Murray
Kyler has finished as a Top-12 QB every single healthy year since 2019. Now he lands with Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, and Kevin O'Connell. O'Connell turned Sam Darnold into a Top 10 QB recently. Expect a similar turnaround for Kyler…
