James Conner

Last year was the first season for Conner since 2021 that he'd played more than 13 games. He finished as the RB15 in fantasy points per game, racking up 283 touches and 1508 total yards (nine scores). Conner didn't look like he was slowing down at all, so I don't see him relinquishing his workhorse in 2025. Assuming he can remain healthy again this season, Conner is set to smash. Last year, he was second in missed tackles forced per attempt, 11th in yards after contact per attempt, and sixth in explosive run rate (per Fantasy Points Data). He also retained his passing game excellence, sitting sixth in yards per route run and seventh in receiving yards per game. Conner could be a wonderful value in fantasy football again in 2025.
