2025 Draft Rankings

62.
Calvin Ridley
WR - (at JAC)
Calvin Ridley had to suffer through horrible quarterback play last year en route to a WR36 finish in fantasy points per game. Among 85 qualifying receivers, Ridley finished 78th in catchable target rate. He finished 31st in target share and receiving yards per game, 32nd in yards per route run, and 33rd in separation and route win rate (per Fantasy Points Data). He was the WR28 in expected fantasy points per game. If Cam Ward can hit the ground running, Ridley could see a big boost in his stat line in 2025. Ridley is a volume-based WR3 that could be a weekly WR2.

Tony Pollard
RB - (at JAC)
Pollard had a strong 2024 season as the Titans' workhorse starter. He ranked ninth in snap share, opportunity, and weighted opportunities. Pollard finished as the RB22 in fantasy points per game while ranking 18th in explosive run rate and sixth in yards after contact per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). The pitiful nature of the Titans' offense last year outside of Pollard crushed his season. He was only 22nd in red zone touches and was the RB15 in expected fantasy points per game. If Cam Ward can elevate this offensive ecosystem and Pollard can retain this awesome role, he could finish as a high-end RB2 this season.

Tyjae Spears
RB - (at JAC)
Spears had an injury-filled 2024 campaign. He dealt with two concussions, a hamstring strain, and an ankle sprain. This cost him four full games and limited him in others. In Weeks 1-14, with Tony Pollard playing his normal role, Spears had a 20-46% snapshare and averaged 7.6 touches and 30.6 total yards. All of the injuries likely played a part, but Spears' per-touch efficiency cratered last season as he had just a 2.4% explosive run rate, 11% missed tackle rate, and 2.30 yards after contact per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). After the strong 2024 season from Pollard, Spears will likely only play a complimentary role for Tennessee again in 2024 and serve as Pollard's direct backup/handcuff.

Cameron Ward
QB - (at JAC)
The No. 1 overall pick in this year's NFL Draft, Cam Ward is expected to open the season as the Titans' starting quarterback. Ward threw for 4,313 yards and 39 touchdowns at the University of Miami-Florida last season, finishing fourth in the Heisman Trophy voting. Ward is an aggressive passer who'll challenge defenses downfield, and he has a strong, accurate arm. He'll also add some value as a runner. But Ward's high-risk style could lead to a lot of turnovers. Ward will undoubtedly hit some rookie-year bumps as he adjusts to the NFL, but he has the potential to be a fantasy QB2 right away.

Chig Okonkwo
TE - (at JAC)
Fantasy managers are still waiting for the Chig Okonkwo breakout season that they though might be coming after he flashed playmaking ability as a rookie in 2022. But we're now three seasons into Okonkwo's career, and he has yet to finish as a top-20 tight end in fantasy scoring. The optimistic case for an Okonkwo breakout in Year 4 is that No. 1 overall draft pick Cam Ward is an aggressive downfield thrower who could pump new life into the Titans' passing game, and Tennessee has a shortage of pass-catching weaponry. But first Okonkwo will have to win a training camp battle against fourth-round rookie Gunnar Helm.

Elic Ayomanor
WR - (at JAC)
Elic Ayomanor was drafted by the Titans in Round 4. The former Stanford standout brings a rare blend of size (6'2", 206), athleticism (4.4s speed, 82nd percentile jumps), and production - boasting the highest career dominator rating in the class (39%). Ayomanor posted 125 catches for 1,844 yards and 12 TDs across two seasons and flashed true X-receiver traits. In Tennessee, he lands in a WR room headlined by veterans Calvin Ridley and Tyler Lockett, presenting Ayomanor a realistic chance to rise the depth chart quickly and become Cam Ward's favorite rookie WR.
