The latest fantasy football mock draft is for a 12-team, full PPR league with three starting wide receivers. Previous mocks can be found at the links below.
Mock 3.0: 12-Team, Superflex PPR
Round 1
1.01: Ja’Marr Chase, CIN WR
1.02: Bijan Robinson, ATL RB
1.03: Justin Jefferson, MIN WR
1.04: Amon-Ra St. Brown, DET WR
1.05: CeeDee Lamb, DAL WR
1.06: Saquon Barkley, PHI RB
1.07: Jahmyr Gibbs, DET RB
1.08: Nico Collins, HOU WR
1.09: Christian McCaffrey, SF RB
1.10: Malik Nabers, NYG WR
1.11: Puka Nacua, LAR WR
1.12: Garrett Wilson, NYJ WR
Thoughts: Jahmyr Gibbs has now been my pick three of the first four mocks this year, but he’s an immediate turn-in-the-card selection outside the top five. We’ll see if an extra starting wide receiver leads to running backs being pushed down the board some.
Round 2
2.01: Brian Thomas Jr., JAX WR
2.02: Ashton Jeanty, LV RB
2.03: A.J. Brown, PHI WR
2.04: Drake London, ATL WR
2.05: Ladd McConkey, LAC WR
2.06: Derrick Henry, BAL RB
2.07: De’Von Achane, MIA RB
2.08: Brock Bowers, LV TE
2.09: Rashee Rice, KC WR
2.10: Jaxon Smith-Njigba, SEA WR
2.11: Jonathan Taylor, IND RB
2.12: Trey McBride, ARI TE
Thoughts: It seems that was the case, as Derrick Henry going behind Drake London and Ladd McConkey is a surprise. I’ll gladly take him, though, and Henry somehow had an overlooked 1,900-yard rushing campaign in his first season with the Ravens.
Round 3
3.01: Tyreek Hill, MIA WR
3.02: Chase Brown, CIN RB
3.03: Josh Allen, BUF QB
3.04: Bucky Irving, TB RB
3.05: Tee Higgins, CIN WR
3.06: Terry McLaurin, WAS WR
3.07: Lamar Jackson, BAL QB
3.08: Jalen Hurts, PHI QB
3.09: Jayden Daniels, WAS QB
3.10: Josh Jacobs, GB RB
3.11: Mike Evans, TB WR
3.12: Travis Hunter, JAC WR
Thoughts: I was torn between Lamar Jackson and Davante Adams here, and wideout might get shaky with three starters that still need to be found. However, I love the idea of pairing Jackson and King Henry along with Jahmyr Gibbs to begin the roster.
Round 4
4.01: Marvin Harrison Jr., ARI WR
4.02: George Kittle, SF TE
4.03: Davante Adams, LAR WR
4.04: Breece Hall, NYJ RB
4.05: Kyren Williams, LAR RB
4.06: Jameson Williams, DET WR
4.07: DJ Moore, CHI WR
4.08: Alvin Kamara, NO RB
4.09: Joe Mixon, HOU RB
4.10: Kenneth Walker III, SEA RB
4.11: Tetairoa McMillan, CAR WR
4.12: Chuba Hubbard, CAR RB
Thoughts: Jameson Williams would be a more dangerous pick here if not for being a full PPR format, but he still carries immense upside. Also, I accidentally get another team stack with the Lions, and you can’t go wrong taking a shot on top NFL offenses.
Round 5
5.01: Zay Flowers, BAL WR
5.02: Xavier Worthy, KC WR
5.03: James Cook, BUF RB
5.04: Courtland Sutton, DEN WR
5.05: DeVonta Smith, PHI WR
5.06: Jerry Jeudy, CLE WR
5.07: DK Metcalf, PIT WR
5.08: Chris Olave, NO WR
5.09: George Pickens, DAL WR
5.10: Chris Godwin Jr., TB WR
5.11: Jaylen Waddle, MIA WR
5.12: RJ Harvey, DEN RB
Thoughts: In retrospect, Chris Godwin Jr. might have been a better selection just to balance out Jameson Williams with a steadier option. That said, DK Metcalf is the clear No. 1 target for Aaron Rodgers, and perimeter weapons have put up huge numbers with the four-time NFL MVP over the years.
Round 6
6.01: Patrick Mahomes, KC QB
6.02: Jordan Addison, MIN WR
6.03: Joe Burrow, CIN QB
6.04: Omarion Hampton, LAC RB
6.05: Brandon Aiyuk, SF WR
6.06: David Montgomery, DET RB
6.07: Calvin Ridley, TEN WR
6.08: Aaron Jones Sr., MIN RB
6.09: James Conner, ARI RB
6.10: Sam LaPorta, DET TE
6.11: Khalil Shakir, BUF WR
6.12: Quinshon Judkins, CLE RB
Thoughts: The roster now has three Detroit stars, DK Metcalf, and perhaps the most dangerous QB/RB combination in league history—so I really like how things have played out. And if Jahmyr Gibbs ever misses time, David Montgomery doubles as a top-tier handcuff in addition to his standalone value.
Round 7
7.01: Rome Odunze, CHI WR
7.02: Evan Engram, DEN TE
7.03: Jakobi Meyers, LV WR
7.04: Brock Purdy, SF QB
7.05: Baker Mayfield, TB QB
7.06: Bo Nix, DEN QB
7.07: Cooper Kupp, SEA WR
7.08: D’Andre Swift, CHI RB
7.09: Jauan Jennings, SF WR
7.10: Isiah Pacheco, KC RB
7.11: Kaleb Johnson, PIT RB
7.12: TreVeyon Henderson, NE RB
Thoughts: Cooper Kupp is determined to have a bounce-back campaign after being released by the Rams, and Seattle has big plans for the former All-Pro—signing him to a three-year, $45 million deal.
Round 8
8.01: Deebo Samuel, WAS WR
8.02: Tony Pollard, TEN RB
8.03: Stefon Diggs, NE WR
8.04: Josh Downs, IND WR
8.05: Brian Robinson Jr., WAS RB
8.06: Travis Etienne Jr., JAX RB
8.07: Ricky Pearsall, SF WR
8.08: T.J. Hockenson, MIN TE
8.09: Najee Harris, LAC RB
8.10: Michael Pittman Jr., IND WR
8.11: Jared Goff, DET QB
8.12: Tyrone Tracy Jr., NYG RB
Thoughts: Don’t be afraid to go heavy on running backs if the value is there, and I preferred Travis Etienne Jr. over Michael Pittman Jr. as the likely target at wide receiver. Jauan Jennings went last round and was someone who would have fit nicely with this roster.
Round 9
9.01: Jaylen Warren, PIT RB
9.02: Jayden Reed, GB WR
9.03: Javonte Williams, DAL RB
9.04: Christian Kirk, HOU WR
9.05: Rhamondre Stevenson, NE RB
9.06: Luther Burden III, CHI WR
9.07: David Njoku, CLE TE
9.08: Tyjae Spears, TEN RB
9.09: Zach Charbonnet, SEA RB
9.10: Rachaad White, TB RB
9.11: Tank Bigsby, JAX RB
9.12: Emeka Egbuka, TB WR
Thoughts: The quarterback situation in Cleveland might be unsettled until early September, but David Njoku should be a huge part of the offense no matter what. In a full PPR format, the projected involvement gave Njoku the edge over a couple of other options.
Round 10
10.01: Keon Coleman, BUF WR
10.02: J.K. Dobbins, DEN RB
10.03: Darnell Mooney, ATL WR
10.04: Matthew Golden, GB WR
10.05: Jake Ferguson, DAL TE
10.06: Rashod Bateman, BAL WR
10.07: Rico Dowdle, CAR RB
10.08: Cam Skattebo, NYG RB
10.09: Jordan Mason, MIN RB
10.10: Austin Ekeler, WAS RB
10.11: Wan’Dale Robinson, NYG WR
10.12: Isaac Guerendo, SF RB
Thoughts: The first bench wide receiver isn’t taken until the double-digit rounds, but Rashod Bateman is a strong option if he needs to step into the lineup—particularly due to the touchdown potential with Lamar Jackson. Depth at wide receiver is something to keep in mind for all scoring formats.
Round 11
11.01: Jalen McMillan, TB WR
11.02: Trey Benson, ARI RB
11.03: Ray Davis, BUF RB
11.04: Bhayshul Tuten, JAX RB
11.05: Rashid Shaheed, NO WR
11.06: Jonnu Smith, MIA TE
11.07: Marvin Mims Jr., DEN WR
11.08: Tyler Allgeier, ATL RB
11.09: Travis Kelce, KC TE
11.10: Marquise Brown, KC WR
11.11: Romeo Doubs, GB WR
11.12: Jaydon Blue, DAL RB
Thoughts: Marvin Mims Jr. was red hot to end 2024, and the Broncos not adding much at the position shows they have confidence in him picking up where he left off. If Mims was gone, I likely would have taken another tight end with Travis Kelce still on the board.
Round 12
12.01: Kyle Williams, NE WR
12.02: Blake Corum, LAR RB
12.03: Mark Andrews, BAL TE
12.04: Tyler Warren, IND TE
12.05: Colston Loveland, CHI TE
12.06: Adam Thielen, CAR WR
12.07: Braelon Allen, NYJ RB
12.08: Jerome Ford, CLE RB
12.09: Tucker Kraft, GB TE
12.10: Cedric Tillman, CLE WR
12.11: Dalton Kincaid, BUF TE
12.12: Justin Fields, NYJ QB
Thoughts: There were a handful of guys in consideration here, but Adam Thielen gives the roster another steady option to complement the ceiling of others on the roster. When healthy, Thielen was on pace for 1,000 receiving yards in 2024.
Round 13
13.01: Kyler Murray, ARI QB
13.02: Tre Harris, LAC WR
13.03: Dallas Goedert, PHI TE
13.04: Zach Ertz, WAS TE
13.05: Denver Broncos, DEN DST
13.06: Kyle Pitts, ATL TE
13.07: Isaiah Likely, BAL TE
13.08: Joshua Palmer, BUF WR
13.09: Roschon Johnson, CHI RB
13.10: Philadelphia Eagles, PHI DST
13.11: Hunter Henry, NE TE
13.12: Jayden Higgins, HOU WR
Thoughts: Among the options I had my eye on in Round 12, the final two left were Isaiah Likely and Joshua Palmer. To keep the Baltimore stack going, Likely got the edge as a borderline TE1/TE2 option who is currently undervalued.
Round 14
14.01: Brenton Strange, JAX TE
14.02: Keenan Allen, FA WR
14.03: Kareem Hunt, KC RB
14.04: Jack Bech, LV WR
14.05: Jaylen Wright, MIA RB
14.06: DeMario Douglas, NE WR
14.07: Nick Chubb, HOU RB
14.08: Quentin Johnston, LAC WR
14.09: Jaylin Noel, HOU WR
14.10: Steelers D/ST
14.11: Trevor Lawrence, JAX QB
14.12: Jaleel McLaughlin, DEN RB
Thoughts: It’s wise to still take shots at wide receiver with late-round picks, and DeMario Douglas is arguably the safest of the New England pass-catchers this year. Whether he can be more than a low-ceiling option for bye weeks will be determined by Drake Maye’s progress in Year 2.
Round 15
15.01: Amari Cooper, FA WR
15.02: Devin Neal, NO RB
15.03: MarShawn Lloyd, GB RB
15.04: Dak Prescott, DAL QB
15.05: Audric Estime, DEN RB
15.06: Jordan Love, GB QB
15.07: Mike Williams, LAC WR
15.08: Chiefs D/ST
15.09: Justice Hill, BAL RB
15.10: Dylan Sampson, CLE RB
15.11: Justin Herbert, LAC QB
15.12: Kendre Miller, NO RB
Thoughts: I might as well go with another ceiling option to close out the position players, and we know Mike Williams can put up monster numbers catching passes from Justin Herbert. The question is if he will be comfortably ahead of Quentin Johnston and rookie Tre Harris.
Round 16
16.01: Ravens D/ST
16.02: Vikings D/ST
16.03: Mike Gesicki, CIN TE
16.04: Jets D/ST
16.05: Michael Wilson, ARI WR
16.06: Texans D/ST
16.07: Bills D/ST
16.08: Caleb Williams, CHI QB
16.09: Brandon Aubrey, DAL K
16.10: Xavier Legette, CAR WR
16.11: Chargers D/ST
16.12: Lions D/ST
Round 17
17.01: Jake Bates, DET K
17.02: Justin Tucker, FA K
17.03: Cameron Dicker, LAC K
17.04: Packers D/ST
17.05: Wil Lutz, DEN K
17.06: Chris Boswell, PIT K
17.07: Tyler Loop, BAL K
17.08: Ka’imi Fairbairn, HOU K
17.09: Chase McLaughlin, TB K
17.10: Will Reichard, MIN K
17.11: Harrison Butker, KC K
17.12: Evan McPherson, CIN K
