Fantasy football rookie dynasty rankings 2025: The best NFL Draft picks, ranked

[ASFN Admin]

The 2025 NFL Draft is over, so it means we can start looking toward the 2025 fantasy football season in a few months.

But for some leagues, it's draft SZN -- specifically, dynasty leagues, where picking the right rookies can win you season after season.

NFL DRAFT GRADES FOR EVERY TEAM: Who got straight A's?

So with that in mind, it's time to rank the 2025 NFL rookie class for fantasy football dynasty draft purposes. We'll assume your league has scoring just for offensive players for a certain two-way star.

Here we go, starting with the very obvious top pick who will be a first-rounder in every fantasy football draft:

1. RB Ashton Jeanty, Las Vegas Raiders​

An ideal spot for a stud running back. No question he's your top pick. Next.

2. WR Travis Hunter, Jacksonville Jaguars​

It's a coin flip between him and the next guy. But I think Hunter is going to be a star, and having Brian Thomas Jr. carving out space for him can only help.

3. RB Omarion Hampton, Los Angeles Chargers​

I'm ignoring Najee Harris's presence on a team that emphasizes the run. Hampton will be a factor now and in the future.

4. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers​

A great pairing of a young quarterback with a legit talent, on a team that doesn't have too many receiving options beyond an aging Adam Thielen. Letting McMillan and Bryce Young grow together will pay off with this pick.

5. RB Quinshon Judkins, Cleveland Browns​

Jerome Ford is just OK. Judkins might end up with a lot of carries in Year 1 ... but maybe against a defenses playing the run a lot.

6. RB TreVeyon Henderson, New England Patriots​

Rhamondre Stevenson is 27, so this might be a timeshare with upside for the rookie.

7. QB Cam Ward, Tennessee Titans​

The top pick in the real draft could be decent right away throwing to Calvin Ridley and Tyler Lockett, but this is a pick for down the road.

8. WR Emeka Egbuka, Tampa Bay Buccaneers​

Mike Evans is aging even if it doesn't look that way every year. Chris Godwin's health is a question mark. Jalen McMillan is good, but not a star. So maybe Egbuka is a sleeper here.

9. QB Jaxson Dart, New York Giants​

The questions about his talent are there, but he's got a good supporting cast when he's ready.

10. RB Kaleb Johnson, Pittsburgh Steelers​

Is Jaylen Warren able to carry the load? Probably not, even though he's super talented. I like Johnson a lot.

11. RB R.J. Harvey, Denver Broncos​

Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estime are ahead of him ... for now. I could see Harvey breaking through.

12. TE Colston Loveland, Chicago Bears​

They LOVE him in Chicago, and with a young QB in Caleb Williams, he may see the ball more than you think even with D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze and Luther Burden III around.

13. WR Matthew Golden, Green Bay Packers​

Somehow feels underrated here. But the Packers have proven their crowded WR room is a problem in the fantasy world.
