Plus, you’ll find two decades of NFL research combined with a series of machine-learning models to deliver aging curves and expected retirement rates specific to every position.

The result: The clearest possible picture of a player’s current and long-term value.

Tier 1
1	Ashton Jeanty A Jeanty LVR RB2	N/A	8	21.9	225	765	1,261	2,201	Jeanty went from a 1,900 total yard sophomore season to a 2,700 total yard junior season. He boasts elite contact balance, burst, and receiving ability. Jeanty’s landing spot in Vegas should support some massive workloads over the next few seasons.	92
5yr. Proj 1261 10yr. Proj 2201 ADP N/A Bye 8 Age 21.9 DS Analysis Jeanty went from a 1,900 total yard sophomore season to a 2,700 total yard junior season.

2	Omarion Hampton O Hampton LAC RB5	N/A	12	22.6	136	680	1,070	1,818	Hampton has carried the North Carolina offense for two years (including when Drake Maye was the QB). The former four-star recruit tallied two straight years of 1,500+ rushing yards and 15 TDs, and he brings solid receiving potential. A shifty runner who can hit the home run, Hampton showed his athleticism by crushing the Combine with a 4.48 40-yard dash and a 38" vertical. He landed in a dreamy long-term spot with HC Jim Harbaugh and the Chargers. Hampton should work in tandem with Najee Harris this fall -- and then handle a clear lead role in ‘26	73

3	Quinshon Judkins Q Judkins CLE RB8	N/A	9	22	193	562	882	1,493	Judkins has a chance to become an immediate three-down back. He answered questions about his athleticism with a 4.48 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine and tied for second among RBs with a 1.52 10-yard split. We’ll see how he works alongside Round 4 RB Dylan Sampson	58

Tier 4
4	Tetairoa McMillan T McMillan CAR WR11	N/A	14	22.6	185	587	994	1,940	At Arizona, McMillan tallied two straight years of 1,300+ yards and 8+ TDs. He brings a clear X WR skill set at 6’5, 212 pounds. He supplies some deep speed but still has the footwork and route tree to freeze defenders. With long arms and a good catch radius, McMillan boasts tremendous fantasy upside. The Carolina landing spot supplies a path to WR1 targets within a couple of seasons.	54

5	Emeka Egbuka E Egbuka TB WR12	N/A	9	23	192	538	949	1,887	Egbuka went back for his senior year to chase a National Championship and caught 70 passes for 896 yards and 10 TDs. He is an ideal NFL slot WR with a quick first step and clean routes to turn slants and drags into big gains. While the Round 1 draft capital was nice, the Bucs don’t supply a clear landing spot for meaningful short-term targets. Mike Evans returns for 2025, Note that Evans is only under contract for one more season.	50

6	Tyler Warren T Warren IND TE3	N/A	11	23.4	186	540	909	1,751	In 2024, Warren was the Nittany Lions’ leading receiver with 104 catches for 1,233 yards and 8 TDs. He has a massive 6’6, 261-pound frame with the typical Penn State top-tier athleticism. Add in monster in-line blocking, and Warren projects as an impact rookie for the Colts. QB play might cap his short-term ceiling, though. Indy will roll into the season with Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones.	49
5yr. Proj 909 10yr. Proj 1751 ADP N/A Bye 11 Age 23.4 DS Analysis In 2024, Warren was the Nittany Lions’ leading receiver with 104 catches for 1,233 yards and 8 TDs.

7	Travis Hunter T Hunter JAC WR29	N/A	8	22.4	120	458	780	1,550	Hunter showed elite receiver ability last year, catching 96 passes for 1,258 yards and 15 TDs while also playing full-time on defense. The Heisman winner is a smooth mover with excellent hands and body control. Jacksonville traded up to secure Hunter, who's fully expected to play on both sides of the ball. Most importantly, Hunter will have a sizable role on offense. We’ll keep a close eye on his deployment alongside Brian Thomas Jr. this offseason.	32

8	Colston Loveland C Loveland CHI TE5	N/A	5	21.5	107	404	694	1,368	Loveland had an injury-filled 2024, dealing with a shoulder and another undisclosed injury. With Michigan’s offensive issues, Loveland was still their leading receiver with 56 catches for 582 yards and five TDs. His awareness and quick feet make him dangerous against zone coverage, reminiscent of Travis Kelce. We like Loveland’s landing spot alongside QB Caleb Williams and HC Ben Johnson. Note that the Bears can move on from Cole Kmet’s contract in the ‘26 offseason.	31

9	Cameron Skattebo C Skattebo NYG RB15	N/A	14	23.8	75	427	669	1,080	Skattebo will get plenty of hype as a hard-nosed runner with 1,711 rushing yards in 2024. Arizona State utilized him in the passing game plenty, but he doesn’t present top-notch athleticism. Skattebo did show his explosion at the NFL Combine with a 39.5" vertical. While his Round 4 draft capital isn’t ideal, Skattebo landed in a fine spot for opportunity	31

10	TreVeyon Henderson T Henderson NE RB17	N/A	14	23	149	378	598	988	Henderson was highly recruited and is insanely explosive when given space. He also shows elite receiving ability but doesn't regularly break through contact. He ran as expected at the Combine with a 4.43 40-yard dash and tied for second among RBs with a 1.52 10-yard split. Henderson projects as an upside PPR back and should eventually see the lion’s share of the rushing work in New England	29

Tier 8
11	Matthew Golden M Golden GB WR33	N/A	5	22.3	143	431	729	1,423	Golden was a surprising four-star commit to Houston, where he showcased deep threat talent. Moving to Texas this past season unleashed his potential with 58 catches for 987 yards and 9 TDs. He was also the fastest WR at the NFL Combine with a 4.29 40-yard dash. Green Bay saw enough to select him in Round 1, and they’ve already talked up his speed, hands, and versatility. He should make a Year 1 fantasy impact – especially with Christian Watson rehabbing a torn ACL.	28

12	RJ Harvey R Harvey DEN RB18	N/A	12	24.8	136	402	573	732	Harvey was a surprise second round pick, but two straight years of 1,400 rushing yards and good receiving skills could make him the “Alvin Kamara” of Sean Payton’s offense. He likely won’t immediately be a three-down back, but there is long term upside to get there for a Broncos team that likes to run	26

13	Bhayshul Tuten B Tuten JAC RB21	N/A	8	23.7	115	332	515	892	Tuten carried the Virginia Tech offense for two years after transferring from North Carolina A&T. He has excellent speed and vision and is also a top-notch returner. Though Tuten's short-area quickness leaves a lot to be desired, he flashed receiving upside as a sophomore. He posted elite numbers at the NFL Combine as the fastest RB in the 40-yard dash, running a 4.32. He also had the best Vertical (40.5"). Tuten could earn lead-back status by late 2025	24

14	Oronde Gadsden II O Gadsden II LAC TE6	N/A	12	22.3	112	346	636	1,236	The son of the former Miami Dolphins’ WR, Gadsden II is the ultimate tweener prospect. He is too big to be a WR, but not quite built enough to be an in-line TE. Gadsden landed in a promising spot without a long-term TE -- and alongside Justin Herbert.	23

15	Jayden Higgins J Higgins HOU WR43	N/A	6	22.8	97	400	666	1,237	Higgins should start opposite Nico Collins in the Texans offense with Christian Kirk playing the slot. His size (6’4, 212 pounds) gives him Higgins turned heads at the Senior Bowl and NFL Combine, where he ran a 4.47 40-yard dash along with a 39" Vertical and 10'8 Broad Jump.	22

16	Woody Marks W Marks HOU RB24	N/A	6	24.8	140	312	484	818	Marks is the perfect receiving back in the NFL with over 1,400 career receiving yards from the RB position. He is an average athlete, but ran a ton of routes at both Mississippi State and USC. He could develop into a deep-league PPR option – and the Joe Mixon handcuff – as early as 2025.	22

17	Luther Burden III L Burden III CHI WR46	N/A	5	21.8	85	381	645	1,241	Burden joins a stacked Bears team with DJ Moore, Rome Odunze, and Colston Loveland. But if there is a HC who can scheme touches for him, it is Ben Johnson. His ability in the screen and short passing game could make him a weapon, though he may struggle to produce consistent fantasy numbers early in his career.	21

18	Kaleb Johnson K Johnson PIT RB27	N/A	5	22.2	46	322	526	808	Johnson fits the Steelers as a hard nosed between the tackles runner with great contact balance and power. He should help fill the Najee Harris role and split with Jaylen Warren. The Steelers appear to be taking it slow with Johnson's development	21

19	Tre Harris T Harris LAC WR48	N/A	12	23.7	78	393	650	1,165	Harris joins a unit desperate for talent outside of Ladd McConkey. His size, production and downfield speed makes Harris a great deep threat for QB Justin Herbert. He should be locked into a starting spot with a good QB, but HC Jim Harbaugh will always want a run first offense.	20

Still, he enters the league with an excellent size/speed combo. And despite lasting until Round 5, he lands with a Seattle team offering little WR depth. Horton has gotten some work with the first team in training camp.	20

But he flashed NFL potential in 2023 at New Mexico with 189-1,190-17. The Washington backfield has some long term uncertainty, as Brian Robinson and Austin Ekeler enter contract seasons.	20

22	Elic Ayomanor E Ayomanor TEN WR53	N/A	10	22.4	124	361	610	1,213	A beacon of talent on an awful football team, Ayomanor sports perhaps the best body control in the class. He is built on highlight catches and physically boxing out defenders to keep position. The overall athleticism is there, but he struggles with concentration drops that will need to be cleaned up. He had a solid NFL Combine running a 4.44 40-yard dash, though he had the slowest 10-yard split among WRs at 1.58. Ayomanor landed in an excellent spot for long-term opportunity.	19

He played primarily in the slot at Iowa State, but showed some outside ability at the Senior Bowl. Likely to start as the back-up to Christian Kirk, Noel could develop into a starting role by his second year.	19

He could be developed to replace Jameson Williams down the line, but the lack of college production is concerning.	19
