Cincinnati Bengals 2025 Fantasy Football Projections
| Player | Att. | Comp. | Yards | TD | INT | Rush | Yards | TD | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Joe Burrow | 575.6 | 395.7 | 4317 | 31.66 | 10.36 | 44.5 | 160.2 | 2.34 | 308.66 |
| Jake Browning | 36.7 | 25 | 262.4 | 1.52 | 0.92 | 4 | 17.2 | 0.32 | 18.38 |
| QB Totals | 612.3 | 420.7 | 4579.4 | 33.18 | 11.28 | 48.5 | 177.4 | 2.66 | 327.04 |
Joe Burrow: Burrow, now a two-time NFL Comeback Player of the Year, had an MVP-caliber season in 2024. (Of course, so did Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson.) In any event, Burrow led the NFL in both passing yards (4,918) and touchdowns (43). With Cincinnati doling out massive contracts to both Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins this offseason, it's all systems go for Burrow and the Bengals offense, who will often find themselves needing to keep up with their leaky defense.

Seattle Seahawks 2025 Fantasy Football Projections
| Player | Att. | Comp. | Yards | TD | INT | Rush | Yards | TD | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sam Darnold | 507.4 | 314.6 | 3551.8 | 21.31 | 12.18 | 48.5 | 164.9 | 2.43 | 234.02 |
| Drew Lock | 38.6 | 23.2 | 258.6 | 1.35 | 1.12 | 6.6 | 29.7 | 0.43 | 19.05 |
| Jalen Milroe | 5.5 | 3.4 | 39.1 | 0.2 | 0.17 | 8.8 | 50.6 | 0.62 | 10.8 |
| QB Totals | 551.5 | 341.2 | 3849.5 | 22.86 | 13.47 | 63.9 | 245.2 | 3.48 | 263.87 |
Sam Darnold: How close will the 2025 version of Darnold be to his breakout season last year? That's the obvious question, especially considering last year's environment (coaching and supporting cast) was about as ideal for a quarterback as possible. On a positive note, the former top-three pick is still only 28 years old despite entering his eighth NFL season. Darnold threw for 4,319 passing yards, 35 touchdowns and 12 interceptions last season and finished as fantasy's QB9. It's definitely possible that the fantasy community (myself included) is discounting him too much in 2025.

Denver Broncos 2025 Fantasy Football Projections
| Player | Att. | Comp. | Yards | TD | INT | Rush | Yards | TD | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bo Nix | 513.9 | 344.3 | 3545.9 | 24.92 | 10.28 | 85.2 | 383.4 | 3.62 | 281.02 |
| Jarrett Stidham | 32.8 | 20.3 | 232.9 | 1.34 | 1.23 | 4.6 | 11.5 | 0.05 | 13.67 |
| QB Totals | 546.7 | 364.6 | 3778.8 | 26.26 | 11.51 | 89.8 | 394.9 | 3.67 | 294.69 |
Bo Nix: Nix started slowly (didn't throw first touchdown until Week 4), but he was one of the most productive fantasy quarterbacks from Week 5 through the end of the season. During that span, he completed 68.3% of his pass attempts for 3,115 yards, 28 touchdowns and eight interceptions while rushing 69 times for 320 yards and two scores. He was fantasy's QB5 (QB6 on per-game basis) from Week 5-18. The Broncos added Evan Engram in free agency and used a pair of top-75 picks on playmakers — R.J. Harvey (No. 60) and Pat Bryant (No. 74) — in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Latest 2025 Fantasy Football Mock Draft
Leading up to the start of the 2025 NFL season, we will use the fantasy football mock draft simulator to complete fantasy football mock drafts. And we will do so using a variety of scoring formats — point per reception (PPR), half-PPR, standard scoring and even 2-QB leagues — and league sizes. The goal is to provide you with a good representation of the team that you may be able to draft given your league settings while also providing the rationale of why we made the picks we did.

2025 Fantasy Football Mock Draft: 12-Team Half-PPR Mock (6th Pick)
> Our 2025 mocks will be centralized here: Fantasy Football Mock Drafts.
Starting positions: 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex (RB/WR/TE), 1 K, 1 DST; Bench spots: 6
1.06 - Jahmyr Gibbs, RB, Detroit Lions
In this mock, Bijan Robinson and Saquaon Barkley went 1.02 and 1.03, respectively, but a case could be made for Gibbs to be the RB1. Especially with Ja'Marr Chase (1.01), Justin Jefferson (1.04) and CeeDee Lamb (1.05) all off the board as well, this was an easy choice. Gibbs set or tied career highs across the board in rushing (250/1,412/16, 5.6 YPC) and receiving (52/517/4, 9.9 Y/R) in his second season. Gibbs was also top five among running backs with a minimum of 17 targets in yards per route run (1.67) and YAC per reception (11.5), per PFF. Gibbs was especially good when David Montgomery missed the final three regular-season games (RB1 overall), but he was also the RB3 (RB4 on a PPG basis) from Weeks 1 to 15 when Montgomery was also active.
2.07 - A.J. Brown, WR, Philadelphia Eagles
Brown missed four games in 2024 and the Eagles averaged a league-worst 26.35 pass attempts per game (down from 33.12/G in 2023, 21st). Despite that, he still finished with 67 receptions for 1,079 yards and seven touchdowns. While there were some quiet games, Brown's 2024 per-game averages of receptions (5.2) and yards (83.0) weren't that much lower than his career averages (5.7/86.8). Even with their potent rushing attack, it's possible that they throw more often than 26 times per game in 2025, which would make Brown a bargain here as the 10th receiver off the board.

3.06 - Tee Higgins, WR, Cincinnati Bengals
Higgins will continue to benefit from playing as the 1B to Ja'Marr Chase, with elite quarterback (Joe Burrow) and for an offense that should need to keep up with its leaky defense. While he has missed exactly five games in back-to-back seasons, Higgins finished second (behind only Chase) among all wide receivers in fantasy points per game in 2024.
4.07 - Jalen Hurts, QB, Philadelphia Eagles
In the same year that Saquon Barkley rushed for over 2,000 yards, Hurts set a career low as a full-time starter in pass attempts per game (24.1). In fact, that was a drop of 7.5 per game from his 2023 average (31.6). He finished 2024 throwing for only 2,903 yards, 18 touchdowns and five interceptions.
Even with Barkley's rushing greatness last season, Hurts extended streaks of 150-plus carries (three seasons), 600-plus rushing yards (four) and double-digit rushing scores (four). Over the past four years, Hurts has compiled 611/2,779/52 rushing in 62 games, equivalent to 9.51 fantasy points per game from rushing stats alone. In addition, only two players (both running backs) — Derrick Henry (51) and Josh Jacobs (42) — come within 10 rushing touchdowns of Hurts (52) during that span, per Stathead. (Josh Allen is tied for fourth (40) with Joe Mixon and Jonathan Taylor.)
