1-10
1. Christian McCaffrey (RB1): Historic producer that’s the centerpiece of one of the league’s best offenses.
2. Tyreek Hill (WR1): Until he loses a step, Hill is the best wide receiver in football.
3. Ja’Marr Chase (WR2): Tyler Boyd‘s departure opens up more opportunities in the slot, which could increase Chase’s already elite role.
4. CeeDee Lamb (WR3): Lamb is coming off a career year where Dallas was the league’s highest scoring offense. The Cowboys’ schedule is tougher this year with the AFC North’s high-caliber defenses on the docket.
5. Amon-Ra St. Brown (WR4): St. Brown has 315 receptions through his first three seasons.
6. Bijan Robinson (RB2): Arthur Smith’s exodus should give Bijan one of the league’s best running back roles.
7. Breece Hall (RB3): Hall led all running backs in receptions last year, and now he gets Aaron Rodgers with an improved offensive line.
8. Justin Jefferson (WR5): Quarterback volatility makes Jefferson a riskier bet than the four receivers ahead of him.
9. Garrett Wilson (WR6): No. 4 in the league in targets last season despite suffering from one of the league’s worst quarterback situations. The return of Aaron Rodgers will be a massive boost to Wilson’s efficiency.
10. Puka Nacua (WR7): Coming off a historic rookie campaign, Nacua is the smart, reliable player that Stafford gets the most out of.
11-20
11. Jahmyr Gibbs (RB4): Dynamic talent that will share workload and cede scoring zone opportunities to veteran David Montgomery.
12 A.J. Brown (WR8): Brown has over 1,450 receiving yards in each of his two seasons in Philadelphia.
13. Marvin Harrison Jr. (WR9): Harrison begins his career as Kyler Murray‘s standalone top target.
14. Drake London (WR10): Everyone in Atlanta benefits from the arrival of Kirk Cousins and the departure of Arthur Smith, but no one more than London. He belongs here in the fantasy football draft cheat sheet – top 150 rankings.
15. Davante Adams (WR11): Adams has 180 and 175 targets in his two seasons as a Raider. As ugly as it sounds, Gardner Minshew would actually be a quarterback upgrade if he wins the job. Adams will slide down this list if O’Connell gets the nod.
16. Jonathan Taylor (RB5): Among the favorites to lead the league in rushing, with a tremendous schedule stretch through the fantasy playoffs.
17. Chris Olave (WR12): The Saints look like a potential dumpster fire, but Olave is their standalone top target that should benefit from Klint Kubiak’s new offense.
18. Nico Collins (WR13): Collins is becoming a bit overhyped as a talent, and he has a ton of target competition in Houston. That said, he’s in a contract year and you can’t fade his upside in C.J. Stroud‘s offense.
19. Jaylen Waddle (WR14): Waddle has a rare combination of stable floor with WR1 upside if Tyreek Hill misses time.
20. Saquon Barkley (RB6): Will run behind the best offensive line, in the best offensive of his career by miles. Unfortunately, passing game volume and scoring zone opportunities will take a significant hit in Jalen Hurts‘ offense.
21-30
21. Josh Jacobs (RB7): A year removed from leading the league in rushing. Will play this season on the best, most well-rounded offense of his career. He belongs here in the fantasy football draft cheat sheet – top 150 rankings.
22. Michael Pittman (WR15): Overall passing volume is concerning, but Pittman has been rock solid in PPR for three straight years.
23. D.J. Moore (WR16): Moore is coming off his most productive season, but target competition is fierce in Chicago this year.
24. Malik Nabers (WR17): Daniel Jones is a separation thrower with excellent ball placement on in breaking routes like slants and drags. Nabers is a great match for what Jones does well.
25 De’Von Achane (RB8): I’m far more interested in Achane in tournaments than in standalone leagues, given his game-breaking upside.
26. Derrick Henry (RB9): Henry will turn 31 in January, but he’s in the best situation of his career. Gus Edwards scored 13 times next to Lamar Jackson last season.
27. Cooper Kupp (WR18): He’ll turn 31 in mid-June with highs of 812 receiving yards and 12 games over the past two seasons. He’s also on the short list of players that could lead the league in receptions.
28. Brandon Aiyuk (WR19): Coming off a career year, but he has requested a trade out of San Francisco.
29. Deebo Samuel (WR20): Like Aiyuk, Samuel’s fantasy value could be significantly impacted if one of the two receivers is moved.
30. Mike Evans (WR21): Tampa’s ageless wonder has breached 1,000 receiving yards in each of his ten seasons, posting the second-highest mark of his career last year. Do you want to pay the premium on a repeat performance with Baker Mayfield at the controls? I don’t.
31-40
31. DK Metcalf (WR22): Ryan Grubb’s new offense should lead to more purposeful opportunities for one of the league’s most explosive playmakers.
32. DeVonta Smith (WR23): One of the league’s most talented receivers looks like the third priority in the Eagles’ offense.
33. Kyren Williams (RB10): Coming off a monster year, but the arrival of rookie Blake Corum is concerning.
34. Travis Etienne (RB11): Averaged 19.1 touches a game last year with Tank Bigsby as his primary reinforcement.
35. Josh Allen (QB1): The top fantasy producer at the position in three of the last four years. He was second in the other one.
36. Sam LaPorta (TE1): No. 5 in targets among tight ends last season despite heavy competition in Lions’ offense. Last seasons’ 86/889/10 line could be LaPorta’s baseline over the next several years.
37. Travis Kelce (TE2): He’s still Patrick Mahomes‘ most trusted weapon, but Kelce will turn 35 in October, and he’ll have much more target competition this season.
38. Stefon Diggs (WR24): Declining player in the heaviest target competition he’s had in years, though he’ll likely benefit from a slot-heavy role.
39. Jalen Hurts (QB2): Enjoys one of football’s best supporting casts and he doubles as one the league’s best goal line runners.
40. Dalton Kincaid (TE3): Kincaid is the premium tight end I’m targeting with a realistic path to leading the position in targets this season. He deserves a spot within the top 40 in the fantasy football draft cheat sheet – top 150 rankings.
41-50
41. Christian Kirk (WR25): With Calvin Ridley in Tennessee, Kirk is Trevor Lawrence‘s best and most reliable wide receiver.
42. Tee Higgins (WR26): Highly motivated in a contract year with an MVP-caliber quarterback.
43. Tank Dell (WR27): Dell’s a talented player, but his volume should be the most negatively impacted by the arrival of Diggs.
44. Patrick Mahomes (QB3): After a down year by his standards, Mahomes’ wide receiver group is much deeper and faster this season. Mahomes could go coast to coast as the MVP favorite.
45. Isiah Pacheco (RB12): Passing game rose dramatically last year with an even thinner running back depth chart behind him this season.
46. Joe Mixon (RB13): Positioned to have a bell cow role behind an above average offensive line in an elite offense.
47. Rachaad White (RB13): Nearly 1,000 yards on the ground and 549 through the air in 2023. Fantasy gamers can still get him at a discount in many tournament formats. He deserves a spot within the top 50 in the fantasy football draft cheat sheet – top 150 rankings.
48. Trey McBride (TE4): From Week 8 on, McBride was No. 3 among tight ends in targets in 2023. He now gets a full season with Kyler Murray.
49. Lamar Jackson (QB4): Has won two of the last five MVPs, but passing game volume is still significantly lower than Mahomes or Allen.
50. Mark Andrews (TE5): Positional value and scoring zone usage has Andrews above teammate Zay Flowers.
51-60
51. Zay Flowers (WR28): Impressive rookie season has Flowers entrenched as top wide receiver in Baltimore.
52. Marquise Brown (WR29): Former first rounder took a bet on himself deal to play with Mahomes.
53. Chris Godwin (WR30): Has over 1,000 receiving yards in four of the last five years. He’s back in a slot-centric role, which is where he excels.
54. Amari Cooper (WR31): Remains a very reliable option, but 265-yard game against Houston inflated Cooper’s overall production last year. If Watson returns to form, Cooper could blow his current ADP out of the water.
55. James Cook (RB14): Over 1,500 total yards last season. Lack of goal line work could be an issue, but Cook could otherwise be an even bigger part of Buffalo’s offense.
56. Keenan Allen (WR32): Allen is coming off one of the best years of his career, but he’s 32 with stiff target competition and a rookie quarterback. The ceiling is still considerable, but the floor is lower than it’s been in many years.
57. George Pickens (WR33): Pickens is a talented player that meshes well with Russell Wilson‘s play extending abilities but expect Drake London type role in Arthur Smith’s offense.
58. Anthony Richardson (QB5): Dynamic talent missed all but four games last year. Jalen Hurts‘ 2022 campaign with 35 total touchdowns and 760 rushing yards is what Richardson’s ceiling looks like.
Engram a Value?
59. Evan Engram (TE6): Finished No. 12 in the league in targets last year and Calvin Ridley is now in Tennessee, yet Engram routinely goes in the sixth to seventh round. Engram absolutely belongs here in the fantasy football draft cheat sheet – top 150 fantasy football rankings.
60. C.J. Stroud (QB5): A bonafide MVP contender behind a rock-solid offensive line with one of the league’s most complete skill groups. Leading the league in passing yards and touchdowns is on the table for Stroud.
61-70
61. Terry McLaurin (WR34): Has proven to be quarterback proof with 1,000 yards receiving in each of the last four seasons.
62. Diontae Johnson (WR35): Reliable route runner that was brought in to be Bryce Young‘s top target.
63. Kenneth Walker III (RB17): He’ll likely lead the Seahawks in carries but expect his passing game workload to be around 2.5 targets per game.
64. George Kittle (TE7): One of the best overall tight ends of all time, Kittle is more of a spike game player than a consistent fantasy producer in San Francisco’s loaded offense.
65. Kyle Pitts (TE8): Like Drake London, quarterback and coaching upgrades could finally unleash Pitts, who should see more work as a wide receiver as he did in college.
66. Aaron Jones (RB18): Will turn 30 this season, but Jones went on an absolute tear down the stretch last year. Limited backfield competition and volatile quarterback play could lead to considerable usage in the passing game.
67. DeAndre Hopkins (WR36): He’s 32 years old, but he still commanded 137 targets last season. Passing volume will be on the rise in Tennessee this season.
68. Rashee Rice (WR37): It’s the middle of July and Andy Reid recently said he hasn’t heard anything about a Rice suspension. It’s starting to look like the league will address Rice’s off field issues next season.
69. Xavier Worthy (WR38): The long-term upside is tremendous, but the floor this season is fourth option in Kansas City’s passing attack.
70. Christian Watson (WR39): Among Green Bay pass catchers, Watson has the highest ceiling and the greatest spike week potential.
71-80
71. Jayden Reed (WR40): The right skill set to lead Green Bay’s ascending offense in targets and receptions.
72. Zamir White (RB19): Positioned to have a massive role in Raiders’ run-centric offense.
73. David Montgomery (RB20): Gibbs is the more dynamic player, but Montgomery likely leads the team in carries and goal line opportunities once again.
74. Jonathon Brooks (RB22): Among the top-three rookie running backs, Brooks has the clearest path to a major opening day role. He also comes with injury concerns and plays on a radically more volatile offense than either Corum or Benson.
75. Joe Burrow (QB7): MVP contender continues to be discount C.J. Stroud.
76. Rhamondre Stevenson (RB21): Recently paid to be the centerpiece of one of the league’s most ill-built offenses.
77. Najee Harris (RB20): Harris being ahead of Warren on this list is much more of a bet on Arthur Smith’s ability to manage situations than it is on talent.
78. Raheem Mostert (RB21): Mike McDaniel has a long history of being a ride the hot hand play caller at running back. This situation largely parallels Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery in Detroit.
79. Rome Odunze (WR41): Chicago may have the deepest and best wide receiver trio in football, which is why Odunze is ranked 50 plus slots after Harrison and Nabers.
80. Calvin Ridley (WR42): Turns 30 this December after being good, but not great in Jacksonville last year.
81-90
81. Jaxon Smith-Njigba (WR43): New offense should be a positive for Smith-Njigba who is more valuable in full PPR formats.
82. Keon Coleman (WR44): Big bodied rookie is more of a skill set replacement for Gabe Davis than Stefon Diggs.
83. Brian Thomas Jr. (WR45): Premium athlete could finish the season as Trevor Lawrence‘s new top pass catcher, but that is a lofty expectation.
84. Ladd McConkey (WR46): Has a very clear path to leading Justin Herbert‘s offense in target share.
85. Jake Ferguson (TE9): Dallas didn’t add any significant skill players this offseason, which may benefit Ferguson more than anyone else.
86. Kyler Murray (QB8): Dual threat option that is capable of MVP-caliber production. Arizona’s difficult schedule gets much easier after their Week 11 bye.
87. D’Andre Swift (RB22): Chicago’s offense has a ton of potential, but their running back room could have three players with notable roles.
88. Jaylen Warren (RB26): We get to relive the Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard conundrum with Warren and Harris in Pittsburgh, with Arthur Smith at the controls.
89. Tony Pollard (RB27): A major disappointment last year despite playing in the league’s highest-scoring offense. Goes to a worse situation in Tennessee but is now a full year removed from a devastating leg injury.
90. Jameson Williams (WR44): The talent is there for the former first rounder, but he’s been extraordinarily inconsistent despite playing in a high-end offense. If it’s going to happen for Williams, this is the year.
91-100
91. Blake Corum (RB28): A Kyren Williams injury away from being a league winner, with a real shot to cut into the veteran’s workload early in the year.
92. James Conner (RB29): Exceeded 25 carries in three of his final five games last season.
93. Jordan Love (QB9): Exceeded expectations last year supported by one of the league’s most well-rounded supporting casts.
94. Dak Prescott (QB10): Dallas failed to add any notable offensive weapons this offseason, and the Cowboys schedule is tougher this year.
95. Brandin Cooks (WR45): Declining speedster turns 31 in September but is positioned as the WR2 in a top-ten offense.
96. Zack Moss (RB30): Exceeded expectations last year with Jonathan Taylor sidelined. Now, he has the inside track to lead Bengals running backs in opportunities.
97. Trey Benson (RB31): Blocked by James Conner, at least early in the year.
98. Brock Bowers (TE10): Vegas isn’t a great landing spot in the short term, where Bowers will compete with Michael Meyer for playing time in a below average passing offense. That said, Bowers was selected as early as he was for a reason.
99. David Njoku (TE11): Very talented player, but keep in mind Njoku’s rise was fed by known tight end inflater Joe Flacco late last year.
100. Brock Purdy (QB11): Enjoys the league’s best supporting cast and showed last year that he’s capable of MVP-caliber production.
101-110
101. Chase Brown (RB32): Blocking issues led to a limited role his rookie season, but there is a clear path to fantasy relevance this season in a thin Bengals backfield.
102. Ezekiel Elliott (RB33): Zeke’s best days are behind him, but he’s positioned to lead Dallas in both general and scoring zone carries.
103. Javonte Williams (RB34): Sean Payton has been historically more run-centric than most might expect, and Williams is positioned to lead the team in touches.
104. Tyler Lockett (WR46): Target competition is stiff in Seattle, and Lockett posted his lowest receiving yards output since 2017.
105. Dontayvion Wicks (WR47): Talented second-year wide receiver is trending up. The problem is Green Bay has four wide receivers that warrant playing time.
106. Courtland Sutton (WR48): The top option in Denver’s underwhelming passing attack.
107. Dallas Goedert (TE12): Target competition and overall passing volume cap Goedert’s upside, which is already limited as he’s only exceeded 750 receiving yards once in his career.
108. Jordan Addison (WR49): Significant off field issues and being the clear second banana in an offense spearheaded by volatile quarterback play make Addison an outright pass for me. It is these reasons that see him fall lower in the fantasy football draft cheat sheet – top 150 fantasy football rankings.
109. Curtis Samuel (WR50): The bull case for Samuel is that Buffalo has a wide-open receiver room, and Josh Allen is the best quarterback he’s ever played with by miles.
110. Devin Singletary (RB34): Positioned to lead Giants’ running backs in touches, but this is the worst offense Singletary has ever played in.
111-120
111. Zach Charbonnet (RB35): A Kenneth Walker injury away from being a league winner, with some chance to organically earn a bigger role with Seattle’s new coaching staff.
112. Rico Dowdle (RB36): Volume is a concern, but I’d argue that he was better than Tony Pollard late last season.
113. Tyjae Spears (RB37): Tennessee brought in Tony Pollard, who has a similar skillset to Spears.
114. Jayden Daniels (QB12): Dual threat rookie that could be selected much closer to Anthony Richardson in 2025 fantasy drafts.
115. Caleb Williams (QB13): Dynamic quarterback talent with a historic supporting cast for a No. 1 overall pick.
116. Austin Ekeler (RB38): Will run behind the worst offensive line he’s played with in years and should take a passing game volume hit with mobile Jayden Daniels.
117. Mike Williams (WR51): Availability has been a consistent problem but meshes well as Aaron Rodgers‘ second option.
117. Rashid Shaheed (WR52): Speedster that has been reliant on big plays to hit spike weeks.
118. J.K. Dobbins (RB39): The floor is low given his injury history, but if Dobbins can return to form, he’s in an excellent position in a run-centric offense behind a top-10 offensive line.
119. Gus Edwards (RB40): Likely to lead run-centric Chargers in carries and goal line opportunities.
120. Josh Palmer (WR53): Sadly, the most proven producer among current Chargers wide receivers.
121-130
121. Khalil Shakir (WR54): Inconsistent through two seasons, but he’s shown flashes of being a valuable contributor. Big opportunity this year in Buffalo’s wide open wide receiver room.
122. Brian Robinson (WR55): Positioned to lead the Commanders in carries.
123. Trevor Lawrence (QB14): Historic quarterback prospect has been good the last two years, but hasn’t quite reached the heights expected of him.
124. Jerome Ford (RB41): Not exactly awe-inspiring in relief duty last year. Will likely cede noteworthy ground work to D’Onta Foreman if Nick Chubb is sidelined.
125. Jerry Jeudy (WR56): Disappointing former first rounder gets a new home in Cleveland, where his future is dependent on Deshaun Watson returning to form.
126. Pat Freiermuth (TE13): Should benefit from thin wide receiver room, but overall passing volume in Arthur Smith’s attack is concerning.
127. Jared Goff (QB15): Solid veteran with one of the league’s best supporting casts.
128. Tua Tagovailoa (QB16): Still commands one of the league’s most dynamic offenses. On the short list of players that can lead the league in passing yards and touchdowns.
129. Marvin Mims (WR57): Quarterback volatility gives Mims a frightening floor.
130. Dalton Schultz (TE14): The clear fourth option in Houston’s passing attack.
131-140
131. Justin Herbert (QB17): The Chargers’ bottom tier wide receiver room and expected run-centric offense has caused Herbert to freefall down early draft boards.
132. Quentin Johnston (WR58): There was nothing encouraging about Johnston’s rookie year, but Justin Herbert is his quarterback and the Chargers wide receiver room is wide open.
133. Jahan Dotson (WR59): I’ve never been high on Dotson as a talent, but he’s worth a flyer at his discounted ADP.
134. Kendre Miller (RB42): The Saints’ backfield could begin to transition to Miller by seasons’ end.
135. Josh Downs (WR59): Strong 68-771 rookie season with a skill set that’s more desirable in full PPR formats.
136. Adonai Mitchell WR(60): Passing volume is a concern for Colts pass catchers, but Mitchell is capable of multiple spike weeks.
137. Jakobi Meyers (WR61): Better than you might think 71/807/8 line last year, but still the second, if not third option in the Raiders’ bottom tier passing game.
138. Romeo Doubs (WR62): Touchdown-dependent fantasy option that is more replaceable than either Jayden Reed or Christian Watson. Doubs looks like the WR4 in Green Bay.
139. Wan’Dale Robinson (WR63): Shifty route runner with at least 11 PPR points in three of his last five games.
140. Nick Chubb (RB43): Brutal knee injury has Chubb indefinitely sidelined, but if he returns, Cleveland has one of the league’s best offensive lines.
141-150
141. Ja’Lynn Polk (WR64): Could emerge as the top target earner in New England by seasons’ end.
142. Luke Musgrave (TE15): Green Bay has one of the league’s most well-rounded offenses, which could keep Musgrave from seeing difference making volume.
143. Matthew Stafford (QB18): On the short list of players capable of leading the league in passing yards and touchdown passes. Just two years removed from finishing in the top three in both categories.
144. Adam Thielen (WR65): Wildy exceeded expectations in the first half of last season, before cooling off significantly in the second half. The latter seems more indicative of future events.
145. Cole Kmet (TE16): Good player in Chicago’s suddenly loaded group of pass catchers, which makes volume a concern.
146. Demarcus Robinson (WR66): The sort of reliable veteran that tends to exceed expectations with Stafford.
147. MarShawn Lloyd (RB44): Likely needs a Josh Jacobs injury to be a real factor this season.
148. Jaleel McLaughlin (RB45): The most dynamic runner in Denver, but his small stature brings volume concerns.
149. Ray Davis (RB46): Positioned to inherit the role filled by Damien Harris and Latavius Murray last season.
150. Ricky Pearsall (WR67): If Brandon Aiyuk or Deebo Samuel get traded, Pearsall’s fantasy value skyrockets.
