The NFL Draft is a game-changer for both real-life teams and fantasy football managers. Every year, incoming rookies have the potential to make an immediate impact, but their success often depends on where they land. The right system, coaching staff, and supporting cast can elevate a prospect to fantasy stardom, while a poor fit can limit their upside.

So, which teams offer the best landing spots for this year’s top rookies? We’ve gathered insights from our collection of Featured Pros to break down the most fantasy-friendly destinations. Whether you’re scouting for dynasty drafts or looking ahead to redraft leagues, these expert opinions will help you get ahead of the competition. Let’s dive into a few dynasty rookie draft sleepers to monitor through the 2025 NFL Draft.

Dynasty Rookie Draft Sleepers

Which QB or TE are you monitoring heading into the NFL Draft because you feel the right landing spot could make them a sleeper in fantasy football dynasty leagues?

Jalen Milroe

“Alabama’s Jalen Milroe needs some refinement, but the raw tools are dazzling. He’s an electric runner with a powerful arm. For a glimpse at Milroe’s potential, go back and watch his performance against the vaunted Georgia defense in September 2024. He completed 27-of-33 passes for 374 yards and two touchdowns, adding 117 rushing yards and a pair of TD runs. It’s hard to envision Milroe starting for an NFL team in 2025, but he’s worth grabbing late in dynasty drafts and tucking away.”

“There are three top QBs in this draft and a lot of project players after that. The one project I’d love to add to my dynasty roster is Jalen Milroe on the Seahawks. The team signed Geno Smith to another contract, but adding Milroe to learn behind him could escalate their exit strategy on him. Milroe comes from a college that is great at preparing players for the NFL in Alabama, and Milroe adds the rushing upside that dynasty managers love in today’s NFL. If he ends up in a situation like Seattle where he’s the clear heir apparent I’m probably taking him in the early second round of SuperFlex rookie drafts.”

“Jalen Milroe – When it comes to athleticism, Milroe has bags of it, rushing for 1257 yards and 32(!) touchdowns over his last two seasons in college. The problem for Milroe is that he’s not the best at the mental side of the game and isn’t always as accurate as you’d hope for, which will keep him out of contention for a starting job on day one. However, if a team with QB issues takes Milroe, then there’s a better likelihood that we will see him take the field before the end of the season, and hopefully, that will bring with it plenty of fantasy upside.”

Quinn Ewers

“Quinn Ewers is arguably the most polarizing quarterback in the draft class. Some love his high moments at Texas, while others are scared off by his low moments and injury history. Yet, he has talent and experience, totaling 36 starts over the past three seasons in Austin. However, it might be best for Ewers to spend the 2025 season learning on the bench behind a veteran. The ideal landing spot for him is the Los Angeles Rams. He would have a year or two to learn from Matthew Stafford and Sean McVay before taking over running a fantasy-friendly offense. If Ewers lands in Los Angeles, the former Texas star will be my most drafted rookie quarterback this year.”

Mason Taylor

“You know you’re getting old when you have seen both a father and son play football, ugh! Mason Taylor is the son of former Miami DE Jason Taylor. And, like his Hall-of-Fame dad, Mason is very athletic. He impressed at the Senior Bowl by consistently creating separation against some of the best defensive players in the country. Ringo thinks that if you want to build a solid foundation for your dynasty team, you should grab Mason in your drafts.”
– Mark Ringo (Sleepers and Busts)

Jake Briningstool

“Jake Briningstool out of Clemson has a real chance to be a very solid starting tight end in the near future. Briningstool stood out for the Tigers in 2024, with seven touchdowns on the season to his name. Briningstool has unique physical traits as well, coming in at 6’6. It will probably translate to being a Day 3 NFL Draft selection, meaning he should cost managers nothing to draft in rookie drafts. All for a guy that has super soft hands that did not exhibit too many drops on tape and is a decent blocker, Briningstool could emerge from the pack and become a value for those that make that investment.”
– Ed Birdsall (Talking Points Sports)

Terrance Ferguson

“Terrance Ferguson displayed above-average athletic testing, finishing with the second-highest athleticism score among the tight ends who tested in this year’s combine. He was first in the vertical jump, 40-yard dash, and 10-yard split drills. With a solid 6-foot-5 and 247-pound build, it’s very encouraging for his potential at the next level. Especially when one considers his strong efficiency last year – 14th in yards per route run, 14th in Pro Football Focus (PFF) receiving grade, and third in yards after catch (YAC) per reception.”
