While the 2025 NFL regular season is still several weeks away, now is the time to start preparing for redraft leagues. Many factors go into fantasy football players winning their redraft league every year. However, the top factor is drafting players at a value.
Let’s look at six of my favorite fantasy football draft values based on Yahoo ADP for redraft leagues.

Best Fantasy Football Draft Values: Yahoo Leagues
Caleb Williams (CHI) – ADP 120.8 | QB18
Unfortunately, Williams fell short of expectations as a rookie. He was the QB16 last season, averaging 15 fantasy points per game, a lower average than Geno Smith (15.6) and Derek Carr (15.1). However, the former USC star flashed superstar upside, scoring 26.1 or more fantasy points in three contests. More importantly, the Bears have given him everything needed for a sophomore-year breakout. They hired Ben Johnson as their head coach, significantly improved their offensive line, and spent their top two picks in the 2025 NFL Draft on pass catchers.
De’Von Achane (MIA) – ADP 18.7 | RB9
There is no reason why Achane should be the RB9 in ADP, getting drafted after Derrick Henry (RB4) and Josh Jacobs (RB8). Last year, the former Texas A&M star was the RB6, averaging 15.3 half-point PPR fantasy points per game despite playing on an inconsistent offense. Furthermore, he was a massive factor in the passing game, leading all running backs in receptions (78), receiving yards (592), and touchdowns (six). While the Dolphins added Alexander Mattison and Ollie Gordon II this offseason, Achane should have a featured role again in 2025.
Alvin Kamara (NO) – ADP 47.5 | RB18
New Orleans will likely have the worst passing offense in the NFL this season. However, that’s good news for Kamara’s fantasy value. The veteran was the RB10 last year, averaging 16.5 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. More importantly, he was a force in the passing attack, leading all running backs in receptions per game last season (4.9). Kamara could see even more work in the passing game with an inexperienced quarterback room relying on their star running back. He is the only Saints player I will draft this year.
Davante Adams (LAR) – ADP 41.1 | WR17
Last season, Adams split time between two lackluster offenses. Yet, the future Hall of Famer finished the year as the WR14, averaging 14.2 half-point PPR fantasy points per game, a higher average than Brian Thomas Jr. (14.1) and Drake London (13.6). Furthermore, he was the WR10 on a points-per-game basis despite Garrett Wilson ranking fourth in the NFL with 154 targets. More importantly, Matthew Stafford has produced multiple WR1s in Sean McVay’s offense in the past. Therefore, Adams should be ranked closer to the WR12 in ADP than the WR20.
Xavier Worthy (KC) – ADP 71.7 | WR28
Worthy is criminally undervalued as the WR28 in ADP. He ended his rookie season as the WR33, averaging 9.3 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. However, the former Texas star finished the year on fire, ranking as the WR10 during the fantasy playoffs, averaging 10.3 targets and 17.5 fantasy points per game, totaling 16.6 or more in every contest. Furthermore, Worthy was outstanding in the Super Bowl against a talented Philadelphia Eagles defense, totaling eight receptions for 157 receiving yards, two touchdowns, and 31.7 fantasy points.
Mason Taylor (NYJ) – ADP 133.7 | TE21
While Tyler Warren and Colston Loveland will be ahead of him in ADP, Taylor is my highest-ranked rookie tight end for redraft leagues. The Jets have one meaningful weapon in the passing game – Garrett Wilson. Furthermore, Justin Fields has a history of making his starting tight end a weekly fantasy option in the past. Cole Kmet finished as the TE7 in half-point PPR scoring in 2023, Fields’ last year as a full-time starter. Taylor should be drafted as a low-end TE1 and not outside the top 20 tight ends.
