Overvalued Fantasy Football Players to Avoid
Let’s look at players who are overpriced draft values based on My Fantasy League ADP for redraft leagues.
Kyler Murray (ARI) – QB6
Last year, Murray finished as the QB10, averaging 17.5 fantasy points per game. Unfortunately, it was the lowest fantasy points per game average of his career. More importantly, the Cardinals did next to nothing to improve their offense this offseason. They didn’t add any big-name players in free agency and spent only a sixth-round pick in the NFL Draft on offense. While he is still a solid QB1 for fantasy players, drafting Murray as a top-six quarterback ahead of Baker Mayfield and Bo Nix is a massive mistake.
Travis Etienne Jr. (JAC) – RB20
Unfortunately, Etienne had the worst year of his career in 2024. The veteran finished as the RB36, averaging 7.4 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. Furthermore, he had a career-low rushing touchdowns (two), failing to find the end zone over the final 15 weeks. More importantly, the current regimen has no loyalty to Etienne after spending a fourth-round pick in the NFL Draft on Bhayshul Tuten. While he should be the first Jaguars running back drafted, Etienne belongs in the RB3 mix and not the top 20 conversation.
Rachaad White (TB) – RB33
Tampa Bay had one of the more fantasy-friendly offenses in the NFL last season. White was the RB24 in 2024, averaging 10.9 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. Unfortunately, his role on offense disappeared towards the end of the season. After averaging 13.7 touches per game over the first 15 weeks, White averaged five touches per contest over the final three regular-season games and lone playoff matchup. By comparison, Bucky Irving had at least 19 touches in all four of those games. White doesn’t belong in the RB3 range.
Jerry Jeudy (CLE) – WR17
While Jeudy is coming off the best season of his career, fantasy players should temper their expectations for the veteran in 2025. Last year, he was outstanding with Jameis Winston but struggled with every other passer. The veteran averaged 9.9 targets and 17.6 half-point PPR fantasy points per game in the seven contests with Winston starting. By comparison, Jeudy averaged 7.6 targets and 7.3 fantasy points per game with every other quarterback. Unfortunately, Winston is in New York, and Cleveland has one of the worst quarterback units in the NFL.
