Welcome to our 12-team fantasy football mock draft! With standard scoring in play, touchdowns and yardage will be the keys to fantasy dominance. The larger league size means depth and value picks become even more important, as talent thins out quicker than in smaller formats. Here are some of my favorite mid-round fantasy football draft picks from a recent mock.

Fantasy Football Mock Draft
5.10 Kaleb Johnson (RB – PIT)
Kaleb Jonson should have an impact right away in this Steelers offense. He has the physical attributes to be an everydown back and will fit extremely well in Arthur Smith’s zone-running scheme.
While he will have to split time with Jaylen Warren, Johnson has the athletic ability and physicality to be an every down back.
6.03 Zay Flowers (WR – BAL)
Flowers is a very underrated WR as he finished 14th in target share and has eclipsed 100+ targets in each of his first two seasons of being in the NFL.
7.10 George Pickens (WR – DAL)
I am in on this Cowboys offense with a healthy Dak Prescott. When Dak is healthy this offense can really fly and put up numbers.
Pickens no longer has to be the #1 option will have a ton of 1-on-1 opportunities with defenses having to worry about CeeDee Lamb on the other side.
8.03 J.K. Dobbins (RB – DEN)
Dobbins should get bulk of the carries to begin the season, but eventually i think RJ Harvey will become the lead back.
But at this point in the draft I am just looking for depth at the RB position. Other options still left were Zach Charbonnet, Jerome Ford and Najee Harris.
9.10 Ricky Pearsall (WR – SF)
This could be the steal of the draft. Ricky Pearsall is in a situation to really break out. Deebo Samuel and changed uniforms and Brandon Aiyuk is still recovering from an injury sustained last season, leaving Pearsall and Jauan Jennings as the two main wide outs on this team.
10.03 Brock Purdy (QB – SF)
I waited as long as possible to take a QB and I feel like I got really good value with Purdy in the 10th round.
Despite the offense dealing with a ton of injuries, Purdy still finished as a top 10 fantasy QB in 2024.
The 49ers open up the 2025 season with one of the easiest schedules, facing the Jaguars, Cardinals and Saints in the first four games.
