2025 Rookie Profile: Cam Ward
2025 Rookie Profile: Cam Ward (QB) Miami Welcome to the 2025 fantasy football season. FullTime Fantasy‘s annual rookie profiles. Next up, the 2025 Rookie Profile: Cam Ward breaks down the draft’s top quarterback. College Resume Cam Ward’s college football journey is a testament to his resilience and growth as a quarterback. Hailing from West Columbia, Texas, Ward began his collegiate career at Incarnate Word (FCS), where he played two seasons (2020-2021). As a true freshman in the COVID-postponed spring 2021 season, he won the Jerry Rice Award as the FCS’s top freshman, throwing for 24 touchdowns in just six games. In his second year at UIW, he earned Southland Conference Offensive Player of the Year honors with 4,648 passing yards and 47 touchdowns, cementing his status as an FCS star. Ward transferred to Washington State in 2022, stepping up to the FBS level. Over two seasons with the Cougars (2022-2023), he started consistently, throwing for 6,968 yards, 48 touchdowns, and 16 interceptions while adding 13 rushing scores. Initially declaring for the 2024 NFL Draft, Ward reversed course and transferred to Miami for his final season in 2024, a decision that elevated his draft stock significantly. At Miami, he led the Hurricanes to a 10-3 record, earned ACC Player of the Year, won the Davey O’Brien and Manning Awards, and finished fourth in Heisman Trophy voting. His lone season with Miami saw him rewrite the program’s record books, though it ended with a controversial exit after the first half of the Pop-Tarts Bowl loss to Iowa State. Cam Ward in 2024: 🎯 92.9 PFF grade (1st) 🎯 39 passing TDs (1st) 🎯 Most Valuable QB, per PFF WAA pic.twitter.com/TI3NcRC7Up — PFF (@PFF) February 26, 2025 Measurables Height: 6-2 Weight: 223 pounds Hand Size: 9 inches (smaller side, contributing to fumble concerns) 40-yard Dash: Estimated 4.7-4.8 Age: 22 (turns 23 in May) Ward’s frame and athleticism allow him to evade pressure, though his height and hand size raise minor questions about his ability to secure the ball and see over NFL offensive lines. Strengths Arm Talent: Ward possesses elite velocity and arm elasticity, capable of making throws from multiple angles and platforms. He excels at driving the ball into tight windows and delivers with touch when needed. Playmaking Ability: A natural improviser, Ward thrives outside structure, turning broken plays into big gains with his mobility and off-platform accuracy. His 26 career rushing touchdowns highlight his dual-threat nature. Clutch Performance: Engineered multiple comebacks, including a 25-point rally at Cal in 2024. Ward showed poise under pressure and a knack for big moments. Growth Trajectory: Evolved from a Wing-T high school QB with one scholarship offer to a Power Five star, demonstrating adaptability and rapid development. Middle-Field Mastery: Posted a 95.1 PFF passing grade over the middle in 2024 (highest in FBS), reflecting his anticipation and willingness to attack tight windows. Weaknesses Decision-Making: Ward’s aggressive, gunslinger mentality leads to risky throws, occasionally putting the ball in harm’s way. He’s prone to forcing passes rather than taking checkdowns. Pressure Struggles: While improved, his success rate under pressure against Power Four teams (34.8% in 2024) lags behind elite prospects, raising questions about NFL translation. Ball Security: Over 30 career fumbles stem from loose ball handling and smaller hands, a concern that needs refinement. Deep Ball Consistency: Completes just 31% of passes 20+ yards outside the numbers (56th among FBS QBs in 2024). Pocket Presence: Tends to drift rather than step up, occasionally abandoning clean pockets too early. NFL Fits Tennessee Titans: With the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft and a vacancy at quarterback, the Titans are the favorites to select him first overall. Ward could thrive in a vertical passing attack, leveraging his arm strength and playmaking. New York Giants: Holding a potential No. 1 overall pick, the Giants need a franchise QB. Ward’s ability to create could mask offensive line woes. However, by signing Jameis Winston, there is no need for the Giants to try to trade up to one. Cleveland Browns: If seeking an alternative to Deshaun Watson, Ward’s experience and upside make him a long-term solution for a team that simply can not figure out the position. Despite having Shedeur Sanders as his QB1, ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr. has Cam Ward going 1st overall to the Tennessee Titans. His reasoning why: “The arm strength…mobility…throw on the move, better [than Sanders]” pic.twitter.com/CTRxpdvfO8 — Liam Willerup (@theleftyliam) January 22, 2025 NFL Comparison Ward’s build, scrambling ability, and knack for extending plays evoke Steve McNair, a tough, dual-threat QB who succeeded despite an unorthodox style. Like McNair, Ward’s success will hinge on refining his decision-making and ball security. Cam Ward’s journey from FCS obscurity to NFL prospect is remarkable. His blend of arm talent, mobility, and clutch playmaking makes him a tantalizing option for QB-needy teams. He checks all the boxes to become a quality NFL starter.

2025 Rookie Profile: Tyler Warren
2025 Rookie Profile: Tyler Warren (TE) Penn State Welcome to the 2025 fantasy football season. FullTime Fantasy‘s annual rookie reports looks at the top tight end in the class, 2025 rookie profile: Tyler Warren from Penn State. College Resume Tyler Warren emerged as a standout tight end during his time at Penn State, culminating in a dominant 2024 season that solidified his status as one of the top prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft class. A former high school quarterback from Mechanicsville, Virginia, Warren transitioned to tight end at the collegiate level, showcasing his versatility and athleticism. After limited action early in his career—playing behind NFL talents like Pat Freiermuth, Brenton Strange, and Theo Johnson—he broke out as a redshirt senior in 2024, earning the John Mackey Award as the nation’s top tight end, First-Team All-American honors, and Big Ten Tight End of the Year. Notable 2024 Season: 104 receptions, 1,233 yards, 8 receiving touchdowns; 26 carries, 218 yards, 4 rushing scores. Career Highlights: Set Penn State tight end records for total touchdowns and touchdown receptions; finished second in FBS receptions and seventh in receiving yards in 2024. Warren’s 2024 campaign was a revelation, as Penn State leaned on him as their primary offensive weapon. His rare combination of receiving production and wildcat rushing ability made him a matchup nightmare, often lining up in-line, in the slot, out wide, or even under center. His late breakout (age 21.9) reflects both his development and the constraints of a Penn State offense that historically funneled targets to a single pass-catcher. College Stats Games Played: 56 Receptions: 158 Receiving Yards: 1,839 Receiving Touchdowns: 18 Yards Per Catch: 11.6 Rushing Stats: 31 carries, 235 yards, 6 rushing touchdowns. Measurables Height: 6-6 Weight: 257 pounds Arm Length: 31¾ inches Hand Size: 9½ inches 40-yard Dash: 4.65-4.70 seconds (based on film speed and scouting projections) Key Traits: Strong burst off the line, good acceleration after the catch, exceptional body control, and a large catch radius despite shorter arms. Warren’s frame is prototypical for an NFL tight end, with the size to hold up in-line and the agility to flex out wide. His high school quarterback background enhances his football IQ, evident in his ability to find soft spots in zone coverage and adjust routes on the fly. NFL Team Fits Warren’s versatility and production make him an appealing fit for a variety of NFL offensive schemes, particularly those that value tight ends as multi-dimensional weapons. Here are three ideal landing spots. New York Jets (1.08) – The Jets brought in Justin Fields to act as a bridge quarterback. Should they choose to bypass that position in the draft, surrounding Fields with pass-catching weapons will be a top priority. New York also lost Tyler Conklin in free agency. That would assure Warren a Week 1 starting role. .@minakimes thinks Tyler Warren from Penn State is an ideal fit for the Jets and new HC Aaron Glenn ✍️ pic.twitter.com/1CdDNDC7nD — NFL on ESPN (@ESPNNFL) February 14, 2025 Indianapolis Colts (1.14) – Shane Steichen is on the hot seat. The Colts also have next to nothing at the tight end position. Warren would be a massive upgrade as an outlet receiver for Anthony Richardson (or Daniel Jones). Also, the Colts had a formal meeting with Warren at the NFL Combine. Seattle Seahawks (1.18) – Warren is expected to be long gone by the time the Seahawks are on the clock. However, if he somehow slides down to 18, Warren would instantly be the best tight end on the roster and mercifully put an end to the club’s frustrating rotation. NFL Comparison George Kittle (San Francisco 49ers) Warren’s playing style evokes George Kittle due to their shared stocky, compact builds (Warren at 6-6, 260 pounds; Kittle at 6-4”, 250) and relentless competitive spirit. Like Kittle, Warren runs with power after the catch, shrugging off tacklers with a low center of gravity and a high motor. Both players bring a throwback mentality. Warren models his game after Jeremy Shockey, while Kittle channels a similar old-school grit. Tyler Warren is worthy of the George Kittle comparisons🗣️ pic.twitter.com/gRy5qldcem — PFF College (@PFF_College) March 8, 2025 However, Kittle entered the NFL with superior vertical speed and blocking polish, areas where Warren still needs refinement. If Warren can develop his inline blocking (currently a work in progress) and test well athletically, he could approach Kittle’s all-around impact. Key Similarities •After-catch tenacity (Warren forced 30 broken tackles in 2024; Kittle is a YAC machine). •Versatility to line up anywhere (Warren’s wildcat snaps mirror Kittle’s H-back usage). •High football IQ and leadership intangibles. Key Differences •Kittle’s elite speed (4.52 40-yard dash) outpaces Warren’s projected 4.65-4.70. •Warren’s receiving dominance in college (104 catches) exceeds Kittle’s (48 career college receptions), but his blocking lags behind Kittle’s Day 1 proficiency. Fantasy Outlook Tyler Warren enters the NFL as a high-floor, high-ceiling prospect with immediate fantasy relevance. His 2024 college stats signal a player ready to contribute as a rookie. His 2.9 yards per route run and 30 broken tackles highlight his ability to turn short passes into chunk plays, a trait that translates to the pros. While he may not stretch the field like Kyle Pitts or boast Brock Bowers’ multi-year dominance, Warren’s size, hands, and toughness make him a plug-and-play TE1 candidate by Year 2, with TE2 value as a rookie depending on landing spot. In dynasty drafts, expect him to go in the middle of Round 1.

2025 Rookie Profile: Omarion Hampton
2025 Rookie Profile: Omarion Hampton (RB) North Carolina Welcome to the 2025 fantasy football season. FullTime Fantasy‘s annual rookie profiles previews one of the top running backs in this class with our 2025 Rookie Profile: Omarion Hampton. College Resume and Stats Omarion Hampton emerged as one of college football’s premier running backs during his three-year tenure at the University of North Carolina. Hailing from Clayton, North Carolina, Hampton first showcased his talent at Cleveland High School. There he amassed 5,370 rushing yards and 88 touchdowns across four seasons. His senior year was particularly dominant, with 1,949 yards and 39 touchdowns at 12.1 yards per carry. That earned him North Carolina’s Gatorade Player of the Year honors. A four-star recruit, he opted to stay in-state with the Tar Heels, spurning offers from marquee programs like Ohio State, Michigan, and Penn State. At UNC, Hampton made an immediate impact as a true freshman in 2022, becoming the first Tar Heel since Charlie Justice in 1946 to rush for over 100 yards in his collegiate debut (101 yards, 2 TDs vs. Florida A&M). He finished that season with 401 rushing yards and six touchdowns on 88 carries across 13 games (4 starts), adding 6 receptions for 40 yards and a score. Omarion Hampton: #2 best RB *in the last DECADE* in YPC on runs when hit behind the line #2 in highest percentage of team’s entire touches (44%) #2 in highest % of team’s entire receptions (17%) 96th percentile in explosion score in jumping drills profile of a true workhorse… pic.twitter.com/JgfZvmtGBZ — Warren Sharp (@SharpFootball) March 13, 2025 Breakout His sophomore year in 2023 marked his breakout, as he assumed the full-time starting role, rushing for 1,504 yards and 15 touchdowns on 253 carries (5.9 yards per carry) while catching 29 passes for 222 yards and another touchdown. This earned him First-Team All-ACC honors, a Walter Camp First-Team All-American nod, and a spot as a Doak Walker Award finalist. In his junior year of 2024, Hampton solidified his elite status. He piled up 1,660 rushing yards (second nationally) and 15 touchdowns on 281 carries (5.9 yards per carry). Hampton also nabbed 34 receptions for 373 yards and two touchdowns. He recorded six consecutive 100-yard games. That was a feat not accomplished by a Tar Heel since 1970. Hampton concluded his college career with 3,565 rushing yards (third in UNC history) and 36 rushing touchdowns (fourth in UNC history) over 38 games. His 16 career 100-yard rushing performances underscore his consistency and durability. Career College Stats •Rushing: 622 attempts, 3,565 yards (5.7 YPC), 36 TDs •Receiving: 69 receptions, 635 yards (9.2 YPR), 4 TDs •Total Yards: 4,200 all-purpose yards •Notable Accolades: First-Team All-ACC (2023), Walter Camp First-Team All-American (2023), Doak Walker Award Finalist (2023) Measurables At the 2025 NFL Combine, Hampton showcased a blend of size, speed, and explosiveness that aligns with his on-field production: •Height: 6-0 •Weight: 220 pounds • 40-yard Dash: 4.46 seconds •10-yard Split: 1.54 seconds •Vertical Jump: 38.0 inches •Broad Jump: 10-10 (130 inches) •Bench Press: 18 reps •Arm Length: 30.5 inches •Hand Size: 9.375 inches Hampton’s sturdy, well-proportioned frame and above-average athletic testing numbers highlight his ability to combine power with burst.. His explosive lower-body strength and contact balance shine through in his leaping metrics and on-tape performance. Hampton profiles as a workhorse running back who thrives in downhill, gap/power schemes where he can attack the line of scrimmage with momentum and squared shoulders. His combination of size, physicality, and surprising burst makes him an ideal fit for teams needing a robust ground game presence. Particularly those picking in the mid-to-late first round (15-32). Hampton’s high floor as a volume runner and untapped receiving potential make him a strong fit for teams in this draft range. His projection (late Round 1 to early Round 2) aligns with his skill set and the depth of the 2025 RB class. However, with a historically deep class, it’s possible teams bypass early runners. That would make Hampton a potential steal on Day Two. NFL Fits Dallas Cowboys (1.12) – This is probably the earliest Hampton would go. Also, it’s assuming that Ashton Jeanty is already off the board. Hampton would contend for instant RB1 value in Big D. Both Daniel Jeremiah and Mel Kiper mentioned/mocked Omarion Hampton to the #Cowboys at No. 12 today. Something to consider. — Marcus Mosher (@Marcus_Mosher) March 18, 2025 Denver Broncos (1.20) – Sean Payton is looking for a starter. With Javonte Williams gone, Hampton’s durability and explosiveness could anchor Denver’s run game behind QB Bo Nix. At pick 20, he’s a value fit. Or they could trade up for him early in Round 2 if they address defense first. Pittsburgh Steelers (1.21) – The Steelers’ identity is built on physical football. And with Najee Harris now in LA, Hampton could step in as a long-term RB1. His power-running style aligns with Arthur Smith’s gap-scheme preferences. And his ability to handle a heavy workload complements Pittsburgh’s grind-it-out approach. Los Angeles Chargers (1.22) – Under Jim Harbaugh and Greg Roman, the Chargers are shifting toward a smashmouth identity. With Najee Harris signed for just one year, Hampton’s 220-pound frame and tackle-breaking ability make him a natural fit for their power-run system. Chicago Bears (Round 2) – Chicago picks 10th and could target Ashton Jeanty. After all, Ben Johnson loves utilizing multiple backs. However, if Chicago continues to build their offensive line, Hampton could be a trade-up target. His size and receiving chops pair well with Caleb Williams in Shane Waldron’s offense, offering a power complement to D’Andre Swift. NFL Comparison Hampton’s playing style draws parallels to Josh Jacobs, the former Alabama star and current NFL standout. Like Jacobs, Hampton boasts a thick, powerful build (both around 6-0, 220 pounds) and excels as a violent, downhill runner who churns through contact with exceptional leg drive and balance. Both players exhibit patience behind the line, waiting for blocks to develop. Both also possess enough burst to turn short gains
2025 Rookie Profile: Tetairoa McMillian
2025 Rookie Profile: Tetairoa McMillian (WR) Arizona Welcome to the 2025 fantasy football season. FullTime Fantasy‘s annual rookie profiles preview one of the top wide receivers in this class with our 2025 Rookie Profile: Tetairoa McMillian. College Resume and Stats Tetairoa McMillan, a standout wide receiver from the University of Arizona, has established himself as one of the premier talents in college football over his three-year career with the Wildcats (2022–2024). Hailing from Waimānalo, Hawaii, and later starring at Servite High School in Anaheim, California, McMillan arrived in Arizona as a five-star recruit and the highest-rated signing in program history. His college tenure was marked by consistent excellence, culminating in a decision to forgo his senior year and declare for the 2025 NFL Draft. 2022 (Freshman) – Despite sharing targets with talented teammates like Jacob Cowing and Dorian Singer, McMillan burst onto the scene with 39 receptions for 702 yards and eight touchdowns, showcasing his potential as a big-play threat. 2023 (Sophomore) – With Singer’s transfer to USC, McMillan’s role expanded. He delivered 90 receptions for 1,402 yards and 10 touchdowns, establishing himself as a go-to option for quarterback Noah Fifita. 2024 (Junior) – His final season was his most dominant, as he recorded 84 receptions for 1,319 yards and 8 touchdowns across 12 games. His standout performance came in the season opener against New Mexico, where he set a school record with 304 receiving yards and tied the program mark with four touchdown catches in one game. McMillan finished third nationally in receiving yards and earned Consensus All-American honors, the Polynesian College Football Player of the Year award, and a finalist nod for the Fred Biletnikoff Award. Career Stats (2022–2024) Receptions: 213 Receiving Yards: 3,423 (Arizona program record) Touchdowns: 26 Yards per Catch: 16.1 McMillan’s blend of size, production, and playmaking ability made him a projected first-round pick. He is the betting favorite for the WR1 mantle in the 2025 NFL Draft class. Measurables McMillian bypassed the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine to participate in Arizona’s Pro Day on March 17. His on-field performance and physical profile strongly indicate his athletic traits. Arizona WR Tetairoa McMillan Since 2023: 🔴 90.5 PFF Grade (3rd) 🔴 173 Receptions (2nd) 🔴 2,712 Yards (1st) 🔴 35 Contested Catches (1st) 🔴 70 Explosive Plays (1st) pic.twitter.com/6NaY1xMCem — PFF College (@PFF_College) March 11, 2025 Height: 6-5 Weight: 215 pounds 40-Yard Dash: 4.53 (Pro Day) some scouts had him as low as 4.48. Key Traits: He has exceptional length, a large catch radius, fluid movement for his size, and an explosive burst off the line. His body control and ability to contort for acrobatic catches stand out, paired with surprising agility on route breaks. McMillan’s rare combination of height, speed, and flexibility distinguishes him as a potential red-zone beast at the wide receiver position, drawing comparisons to elite NFL talents. 4.53 (adjusted) 40 time for tet mcmillan is perfectly fine for a dominant college receiver. no concerns. buy. pic.twitter.com/NhRTCSgrXL — The Podfather (@Fantasy_Mansion) March 18, 2025 NFL Team Fits McMillan’s skill set makes him an ideal WR1 candidate for playoff-contending or mid-tier teams looking to bolster their passing attack. However, there is no consensus if NFL teams view him as the locked-in WR1 in this class. McMillian’s dynasty rookie draft value hinges on his 2025 NFL draft range. Currently, that is as high as the eighth pick down into the 20s. After Arizona’s Pro Day, McMillian was listed as -280 to be the first wideout selected. New England Patriots (1.04) – New England needs to develop a true alpha No. 1 wide receiver to support Drake Maye. However, McMillian is not projected to go this high, and the rebuilding Patriots have myriad other holes to fill. Las Vegas Raiders (1.06) – The Raiders desperately need help at wideout. McMillian would be a huge upgrade and take pressure off Jakobi Meyers. San Francisco 49ers (1.11) – After shipping off Deebo Samuel, the Niners are rumored to be sh0pping Brandon Aiyuk. McMillian could act as San Francisco’s No. 1 receiver if Aiyuk (knee) isn’t ready in Week 1 or is moved. Dallas Cowboys (1.12) – There are rumors that Jerry Jones loves McMillian. Additionally, wide receiver is one of the club’s top 2025 NFL Draft team needs. Seattle Seahawks (1.18) – After trading DK Metcalf to Pittsburgh, the Seahawks could use a big-bodied outside threat to complement Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp. Los Angeles Chargers (1.22) – The Chargers found a stud last year in Ladd McConkey. LA re-signed Mike Williams for one year, but McMillian would be a huge upgrade and long-term solution on the perimeter. NFL Comparison McMillan’s game evokes Mike Evans with a modern twist. Like Evans, he’s a 6-5 target who excels at contested catches and red-zone production. He adeptly uses his frame to box out defenders. However, McMillan adds more quickness and flexibility to his route running. That gives him a higher ceiling as a yards-after-catch threat than Evans early in his career. Think of him as Evans with shades of Drake London’s fluidity—a big-bodied receiver who moves like a smaller athlete. Fantasy Outlook For fantasy football managers, Tetairoa McMillan is a top-3 prospect in 2025 rookie drafts. His college production, physical tools, and likely high draft capital position him as a top-tier asset with WR1 upside from Day 1. In redraft leagues, he’ll be a mid-to-late round pick depending on his landing spot, with immediate WR2 potential and a trajectory toward WR1 status by Year 2. In dynasty formats, McMillan is a strong contender for the No. 2 overall rookie pick. Especially in leagues that value wide receivers’ longevity over running backs. His best-case scenario of landing with a veteran signal-caller who develops a strong red-zone rapport with McMillian could yield 80+ receptions, 1,200+ yards, and 8–10 touchdowns as a rookie. Even in a crowded situation, his talent should shine through with 60–70 catches and 900–1,000 yards. McMillan’s combination of target volume, red-zone prowess, and big-play ability makes him a high-upside target
2025 Rookie Profile: Ashton Jeanty
2025 Rookie Profile: Ashton Jeanty (RB) Boise State Welcome to the 2025 fantasy football season. FullTime Fantasy‘s annual rookie profiles begin with one of the most coveted prospects in many years. Here is our 205 Rookie Profile: Ashton Jeanty. College Resume and Stats Ashton Jeanty leaves Boise State as one of the most prolific running backs in college football history. Hailing from Jacksonville, Florida, Jeanty made an immediate impact as a true freshman in 2022, rushing for 821 yards and 7 touchdowns on 156 carries (5.3 YPC) in a shared backfield. His sophomore campaign in 2023 elevated his profile, with 1,347 yards and 14 touchdowns on 220 carries (6.1 YPC), plus 43 receptions for 569 yards and 5 receiving touchdowns—tops among FBS running backs that year. Some of the things that Jeanty does on tape are just at a different level. #nfl #nfldraft #2025nfldraft #ashtonjeanty #boisestate #collegefootball pic.twitter.com/DRT5smc3b1 — Todd McShay (@McShay13) March 17, 2025 In 2024, Jeanty delivered a historic season, leading the FBS with 2,601 rushing yards and 29 touchdowns on 374 carries (7.0 YPC), coming within 27 yards of Barry Sanders’ single-season record. He added 20 catches for 138 yards and one touchdown through the air. His trophy case boasts the Maxwell Award, Doak Walker Award, unanimous All-American honors, two Mountain West Offensive Player of the Year titles, and a Heisman Trophy runner-up finish. Jeanty’s career totals—4,769 rushing yards (6.4 YPC), 50 rushing touchdowns, 862 receiving yards, and 6 receiving scores—make him Boise State’s all-time leading rusher. Measurables (Projected) Height: 5-9 Weight: 215 pounds 40-Yard Dash: 4.42 (estimated) Vertical Jump: 36 inches (estimated) Broad Jump: 10-2 (estimated) Hand Size: 9.25 inches (estimated) Jeanty’s sturdy, compact build and explosive traits suggest he’ll test well at the combine. His blend of power, speed, and agility positions him as a top-tier athlete at the position. He is widely considered the best NFL running back prospect since Saquon Barkley. NFL Fits Las Vegas Raiders (1.06) – The Raiders signed Raheem Mostert, but he’s near the end of his career and injury-prone. Jeanty would be a terrific fit in the offense that Pete Carroll and Chip Kelly will utilize, allowing Mostert to play a complementary role. Jacksonville Jaguars (1.05) – Returning home, Jeanty would pair with Trevor Lawrence, adding explosiveness to Doug Pederson’s offense. A skill-position group of Lawrence, Brian Thomas, and Jeanty would be one of the top trios in football. Chicago Bears (1.10) – Caleb Williams and a top RB like Jeanty could transform Shane Waldron’s attack. D’Andre Swift was a disappointment in his first year and Ben Johnson is a big believer in utilizing multiple running backs. Betting odds favor this pick over any other potential landing spot. Dallas Cowboys (1.12) – This is the dream scenario for fantasy purposes. The Cowboys have a long history of producing outstanding fantasy RBs. This is also likely the lowest that Jeanty is expected to be selected. NFL Comparison Ashton Jeanty evokes memories of LaDainian Tomlinson, the Chargers’ legendary back who redefined the RB position. At 5-9 and 215 pounds, Jeanty mirrors Tomlinson’s compact, powerful frame (5-10, 221). Both players combine elite vision, burst, and contact balance with exceptional receiving skills—Tomlinson averaged 71 catches per season over his first five years, while Jeanty’s 43 receptions in 2023 hint at similar potential. Jeanty’s ability to dominate as a runner (like Tomlinson’s 1,800-yard, 28-TD 2006 season) while excelling as a pass-catcher aligns with LT’s three-down dominance. Who does @BroncoSportsFB running back Ashton Jeanty remind @dpbrugler of? LaDainian Tomlinson 👀 pic.twitter.com/Rrr2xKpTZs — The Athletic (@TheAthletic) October 2, 2024 Though Jeanty’s college workload exceeds Tomlinson’s at San Diego State, their shared knack for explosive plays and scoring versatility makes this a fitting comp. In the NFL, Jeanty could approach Tomlinson’s fantasy ceiling: 1,500+ rushing yards, 50+ catches, and 15+ total TDs in peak seasons. Fantasy Outlook Jeanty is a rare prospect—a workhorse with elite receiving chops, poised to dominate in the NFL. His college production suggests he can handle 300+ touches as a rookie while contributing 60+ receptions in PPR-friendly offenses. For dynasty managers, he’s the undisputed 1.01 in 2025 rookie drafts. That includes QB-needy squads in Superflex formats. In redraft leagues, Jeanty’s a first-round lock (likely top-8). A floor of 1,300 total yards and 12+ touchdowns seems reasonable. His Tomlinson-esque blend of volume, efficiency, and versatility makes him a fantasy superstar in waiting.

2024 Offensive Line Rankings
2024 Offensive Line Rankings This 2024 Offensive Line Rankings post is courtesy of FTNFantasy‘s Adam Pfeifer and is featured in the 2024 Football Diehards Fantasy Football Magazine. Offensive linemen don’t score fantasy points but they sure have a huge impact on the players that do. Just ask Jason Kelce. Tush push aside (pun), the offensive line has recently received more attention in fantasy football discussions, but still not enough. I mean, think about it. The first player to touch the ball on every single play? The center. We’ve seen elite offensive lines elevate the play of running backs and quarterbacks, while poor units can often hold players back. A weak pass-blocking unit not only impacts the quarterback but also limits what a downfield wide receiver can do considering their routes need time to develop. So understanding which units are strong, which need work, and which are disasters can be just one of many edges to be had in fantasy football. The Elite Philadelphia Eagles For years, the Eagles have had the best offensive line in football. And even with Hall of Fame center Jason Kelce retiring, this still remains arguably the top unit in all of football. This past season, Philadelphia remained the elite run-blocking convoy. According to FTN Data, D’Andre Swift was contacted behind the line of scrimmage on 17.9% of his rush attempts last year, which was the ninth-best rate among running backs with at least 50 carries. He averaged a healthy 2.49 yards before contact per rush attempt and according to FTN’s DVOA, just 14% of Philadelphia’s total carries were stuffed at or behind the line of scrimmage, the second-best rate in football. Somewhere, Saquon Barkley is smiling. It isn’t a positive that Kelce is gone but the Eagles are still loaded. Lane Johnson and Jordan Mailata are arguably the league’s best tackle duo and to replace Kelce, Philadelphia will call on third-year center Cam Jurgens, who was responsible for just two quarterback hits and zero sacks on 383 pass-blocking snaps in 2023. In fact, quarterback Jalen Hurts was hit just 29 total times last year (27th), with just six coming while throwing the football. Of course, you can’t replicate or underrate the impact Kelce has on this entire team, let alone the offensive line. But this is still the best unit in all of football with a legendary coach in Jeff Stoutland. Los Angeles Rams There were plenty of questions surrounding the Rams entering the 2023 season. The 2022 season was filled with injuries, poor play, and a handful of different starting units. But the Rams were quite the story this past season, posting a top-five PFF run-blocking grade, which helped breakout running back Kyren Williams average the second-most yards before contact per attempt (3.0). The addition of Steve Avila was huge, as his versatility allows him to play anywhere. During his first two seasons at TCU, Avila played over 1,000 snaps at center but in 2022, he moved to left guard, logging 1,000-plus snaps there. With last year’s starting center gone, Avila will likely move to center for the Rams in 2024, which is fine considering his experience. Otherwise, the Rams return four starters from last year, continuing to implement their gap run scheme with Williams and rookie Blake Corum. The Rams ranked fifth in adjusted line yards last year (4.55) and when this offense was fully healthy, we were looking at an elite unit. The Good Pittsburgh Steelers Give the Steelers credit. Over the past two seasons, they have made huge strides in improving the offensive line. It started last year when they drafted Broderick Jones and signed veteran Isaac Seumalo, who were both immediately impact players. Jones showed serious flashes as a top-tier run-blocking lineman, though he was a bit up-and-down in pass protection. Pittsburgh continued to address the line this offseason, drafting left tackle Troy Fautanu in the first round, followed by center Zach Frazier in the second. Fautanu is insanely athletic and has experience playing all five positions on the offensive line. One of Pittsburgh’s most pressing needs was at center so the addition of Frazier is welcomed. In three collegiate seasons, Frazier allowed a total of four sacks and nine quarterback hits. Starting two rookies might be a concern but the Steelers have a strong surrounding cast. Don’t be surprised if this unit climbs towards elite territory in 2024. Green Bay Packers Jordan Love’s breakout draws most of the attention behind Green Bay’s stellar season, but this offensive line deserves credit, too. In 2023, the Packers allowed the third-fewest sacks (30), while Love was under pressure on just 30.2% of his dropbacks, the third-lowest rate among qualified signal callers. The versatility within this unit is impressive and it all starts with Elgton Jenkins and Zach Tom, who can play anywhere. Jenkins received a top-10 pass-blocking PFF grade for all offensive linemen last year allowing zero sacks and just six quarterback hits. After moving on from long-time left tackle David Bakhtiari, Green Bay spent a first-round selection on Arizona’s Jordan Morgan, who could start Week 1. I love the versatility and depth of this unit, which means things won’t fall apart when injuries inevitably happen. The Bad Miami Dolphins This offseason was tough for the Dolphins, as they were forced to move on from both Robert Hunt and Connor Williams. That leaves the interior of this offensive line extremely vulnerable and Miami will have to rely on Terron Armstead to stay healthy, but that simply hasn’t been the case. Armstead missed seven games last year and has now missed almost 20 games over the last three seasons. The pressure stats won’t ever tell the entire story because Tua Tagovailoa gets the ball out faster than anyone in the league, averaging 2.24 seconds to throw last year. And perhaps the scheme can mask the offensive line concerns. But unless Armstead can stay healthy, this will be one of the weaker units in the NFL in 2024. Washington Commanders This past season,
