It’s fast approaching a month since the largest 2025 fantasy football best ball drafts have opened, and after the initial couple of days when average draft position (ADP) data is all over the place, things start to settle down and become more consistent. That’s not to say we haven’t seen sizeable shifts because of coachspeak, trades or other factors. If we look back since the start of May, below are the biggest fantasy football risers and fallers in Underdog ADP. Let’s look at a few fantasy football draft value fallers.

Best Ball Fantasy Football ADP Fallers
Jalen Tolbert (WR – DAL) | ADP: 211 (-35.3)
The last ramification of the Pickens trade is Jalen Tolbert falling three full rounds to the point where he sometimes goes undrafted. Tolbert played his way to becoming the No. 2 WR in Dallas last season after a disappointing rookie season, notching up six games over 40 yards and scoring seven touchdowns, but failing to leave enough of an impact to secure that role into 2025.
Tolbert is a solid draft pick if you’re stacking Cowboys players.
Jerome Ford (RB – CLE) | ADP: 206 (-35.2)
Despite signing a new contract, Jerome Ford has fallen further down draft boards recently. In part because he took a pay cut, but also because the Browns seem committed to rookies Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson. Ford will potentially have some early-season value, making him an interesting pick if you’ve gone rookie-heavy, but he’s unlikely to produce for the entire season.
Dontayvion Wicks (WR – GB) | ADP: 207 (-21.1)
This time last year, the Packers coaching staff was talking up Dontayvion Wicks as the next Davante Adams, and while Wicks flashed at moments, he let himself down badly with drops. Drops don’t always matter, but if you’re not getting the ball often, they do matter.
Running Back Josh Jacobs said the Packers needed a No. 1 WR this offseason, and the team’s investment in a first-round wideout for the first time since 2002 seemed to imply they might agree with him. Wicks has a much tougher path to relevancy this year, even with Christian Watson potentially out for the entire season.
Najee Harris (RB – LAC) | ADP: 110 (-18.6)
Najee Harris is going almost 70 picks after Omarion Hampton, which feels like quite a substantial gap given that the Chargers handed out the largest running back contract in free agency. This ADP brings back memories of Lions duo Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery from not too long ago, and they both turned into fine values.
Harris is the type of back who can thrive in Greg Roman’s offense, and Roman isn’t famed for giving rookies huge workloads. Harris’ ADP is falling, but should it?
Christian Kirk (WR – HOU) | ADP: 126 (-16.4)
The Texans pick-swapped their way to Christian Kirk pre-draft, but that didn’t stop them from drafting Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel not long after. Kirk is a solid player but hasn’t consistently delivered upside, and it’s no surprise to see him falling here, 35 picks behind Higgins.
In full PPR formats, Kirk might prove more useful for an offense that may have to throw the ball plenty and quickly in 2025, thanks to their woeful-looking offensive line.
Keenan Allen (WR – FA) | ADP: 180 (-15.2)
Rumors swirled that Keenan Allen could return to the Chargers, but nothing came of them. The time when free agent signings counted against compensatory picks passed, but nothing happened for Keenan Allen then, either.
Now it feels more likely that Allen waits till closer to training camp to choose a team where he can stay relevant. Allen still had some juice last year, but he found himself on a bad offense with a quarterback whom nobody taught how to watch film. With the right landing spot, this ADP could prove smart.
