The 2025 NFL regular season is less than three weeks away, meaning everyone is knee deep in draft season. However, there is always time for another mock draft, and everyone knows the best way to do that is with the FantasyPros Mock Draft Simulator.
I am picking 10th in this 10-team, superflex, and half-point PPR-scoring redraft mock draft. The lineup for this mock draft is one quarterback, two running backs, two wide receivers, one tight end, two flex, one superflex, and seven bench spots.

Fantasy Football Mock Draft
My goal for this mock draft was to use a Zero-QB draft strategy, waiting until the eighth round to select my first quarterback. Let’s see how it turned out.
Pick 1.10 – Bijan Robinson (RB – ATL)
Landing Robinson at the end of the first round in a superflex mock draft is a steal. Last season, he was the RB4, averaging 18.3 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. However, the former Texas star was outstanding with Michael Penix Jr. under center, averaging 24.7 touches for 124.7 scrimmage yards, two touchdowns, and 25.6 fantasy points per game over the final three weeks, scoring two touchdowns and 23.3 or more fantasy points in every outing.
Pick 2.01 – Justin Jefferson (WR – MIN)
Some might be nervous drafting Jefferson because of J.J. McCarthy. However, the superstar wide receiver is quarterback-proof. He was the WR2 last season, averaging 15.6 half-point PPR fantasy points per game with Sam Darnold under center. Furthermore, Jefferson was the WR3 from Week 15 through Week 18 during the 2023 season, averaging 11 targets and 18.4 fantasy points per game with Nick Mullens and Jaren Hall under center, totaling 23.1 or more twice.
Pick 3.10 – Trey McBride (TE – ARI)
Unfortunately, McBride had as many fumble recoveries and rushing touchdowns as receiving scores last season (two). Hopefully, that won’t happen again in 2025. Yet, despite ranking 24th among tight ends with two receiving touchdowns, the superstar finished as the TE3 last year, averaging 12.1 half-point PPR fantasy points per outing. While many have high hopes for Marvin Harrison Jr. to bounce back after a disappointing rookie season, McBride should remain Arizona’s top weapon in the passing game.
Pick 4.01 – Drake London (WR – ATL)
London is one of my favorite draft targets this season. The former USC star had a breakout year in 2024, ending the season as the WR5, setting career highs in half-point PPR fantasy points per game (13.6), receptions (100), targets (158), receiving yards (1,271), and touchdowns (nine). More importantly, he was outstanding with Michael Penix Jr. under center, ranking as the WR1 during the rookie’s three starts, averaging 13 targets and 19.4 fantasy points per game.
Pick 5.10 – Chuba Hubbard (RB – CAR)
While the Panthers won’t have an elite offense, fantasy players should expect them to have a fantasy-friendly unit. Last year, Hubbard finished as the RB15, averaging 14.7 half-point PPR fantasy points per game, posting a higher average than Breece Hall (13.3) and Bucky Irving (13). Furthermore, the former Oklahoma State star is coming off the best season of his career, setting career-highs in rushing yards (1,195) and touchdowns (10). Hubbard is an excellent RB2 draft pick.
Pick 6.01 – RJ Harvey (RB – DEN)
Many were shocked when the Broncos selected Harvey in the second round of the NFL Draft. He had at least 1,400 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns in back-to-back seasons to end his college career. More importantly, the other three running backs drafted by Sean Payton in the top 100 picks were Reggie Bush, Mark Ingram, and Alvin Kamara. While J.K. Dobbins impacts his fantasy outlook, Harvey still has top-15 upside as a rookie.
Pick 7.10 – DK Metcalf (WR – PIT)
The former Ole Miss finished last year as the WR32, averaging 10.5 half-point PPR fantasy points per game, the lowest average of Metcalf’s career since his rookie season in 2019. Yet, he is primed for a bounce-back year after getting traded to the Steelers this offseason. Metcalf is the team’s only meaningful weapon in the passing game. More importantly, Aaron Rodgers loves targeting his No. 1 wide receiver. Last season, his top wide receiver averaged 10.7 targets per game.
Pick 8.01 – Trevor Lawrence (QB – JAC)
Lawrence hasn’t lived up to the draft hype that came along with being the first overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. However, fantasy players should have high hopes for him in 2025. Liam Coen played a massive role in Baker Mayfield having a career year last season. The veteran finished as the QB4, averaging 2.4 passing touchdowns and 21.5 fantasy points per game. Lawrence could have similar success this season, especially with Brian Thomas Jr. and Travis Hunter at his disposal.
Pick 9.10 – Travis Hunter (WR – JAC)
Speaking of Hunter, the reigning Heisman Trophy winner is criminally undervalued at his current ADP. While he will play on offense and defense as a rookie, the Jaguars didn’t trade up in the NFL Draft for Hunter to not play a significant role in Trevor Lawrence’s development. Last year, he had 1,258 receiving yards and 15 touchdowns on only 121 targets. Hunter should see at least that many targets as a rookie in the Chris Godwin role of Liam Coen’s offense.
Pick 10.01 – J.K. Dobbins (RB – DEN)
Last season, Dobbins mostly stayed healthy after missing 82.4% of the games over the previous three years with injuries. He finished as the RB23, averaging 13.5 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. Furthermore, his 5.1% explosive run rate ranked 12th out of 31 running backs with at least 150 rushing attempts last season (per Fantasy Points Data). More importantly, Alvin Kamara and Mark Ingram were both fantasy stars in 2017 and 2018 when Sean Payton was the New Orleans Saints’ head coach.
Pick 11.10 – Bryce Young (QB – CAR)
Young was quietly one of the better fantasy quarterbacks to end last season. He was the QB6 from Week 13 through Week 18, averaging 21.9 fantasy points per game, a higher average than Bo Nix (21.6). Furthermore, Young was the QB1 from Week 16 through Week 18, averaging 2.3 passing touchdowns, one rushing score, and 26.8 fantasy points per game, totaling 27.1 or more twice. Now, he gets a legitimate No. 1 wide receiver in Tetairoa McMillan.
Pick 12.01 – Michael Penix Jr. (QB – ATL)
Fantasy players only saw Penix start three games as a rookie. However, the former Washington star flashed upside during his limited starts. He was the QB17 over those three weeks, averaging one passing touchdown and 15.2 fantasy points per game. Furthermore, Penix scored more fantasy points than the week before, ending the season with a 26-point performance in Week 18 despite missing . While he offers little rushing upside, Penix is still an appealing QB2 option.

Furthermore, Penix scored more fantasy points than the week before, ending the season with a 26-point performance in Week 18 despite missing Darnell Mooney. While he offers little rushing upside, Penix is still an appealing QB2 option.
Pick 13.10 – Jerome Ford (RB – CLE)
Last year, Ford averaged 11.9 half-point PPR fantasy points per game in the six contests he played more than 20% of the snaps without Nick Chubb. Furthermore, Ford ranked fourth in yards per attempt (5.43), seventh in yards after contact per attempt (2.7), and eighth in explosive run rate (6.7%) among 46 running backs with at least 100 rushing attempts (per Fantasy Points Data). Ford should see a meaningful workload until Quinshon Judkins is up to speed after missing time because of off-the-field issues.
Pick 14.01 – Keon Coleman (WR – BUF)
Coleman had four receiving touchdowns as a rookie, the second-most on the team despite ranking seventh with 29 receptions. The former Florida State star has had an impressive training camp. Furthermore, he could turn into Josh Allen’s top wide receiver in 2025, especially with Khalil Shakir dealing with a high-ankle sprain. Last year, Coleman’s first-read target share in the red zone (28.1%) led the team, 10.5% higher than any other Bill (per Fantasy Points Data). He is one of my favorite late-round draft targets.
Pick 15.10 – Cedric Tillman (WR – CLE)
While Jerry Jeudy was the WR15 last season, averaging 11.5 half-point PPR fantasy points per game, Tillman was the Browns’ top wide receiver following the Amari Cooper trade before suffering a season-ending concussion. According to Fantasy Points Data, Tillman had a better target per route run rate (22% vs. 18%), yards per route run average (1.69 vs. 1.67), and first-round target share (25.7% vs. 23.5%) than Jeudy during the five weeks where both were healthy following the Cooper trade.
Pick 16.01 – Kyle Monangai (RB – CHI)
Fantasy players should expect D’Andre Swift to be the Bears’ lead running back this season. However, Monangai has pushed Roschon Johnson out of the No. 2 role in the backfield. The rookie had over 1,200 rushing yards and at least eight touchdowns in back-to-back years to end his college career, averaging 5.1 yards per attempt. Monangai is a physical runner who should have the David Montgomery role in Ben Johnson’s offense, potentially scoring double-digit touchdowns as a rookie.
