Javonte is the Cowboys most complete back on paper.

He has redzone size, can catch passes and pass-protect.

This will be a battle in camp between Williams, Blue and Miles Sanders...

But it’s clear Javonte is a fantasy winner from the Draft…

Javonte Williams benefitted from the NFL Draft.

Dallas didn’t draft an RB until Round 5 in Jaydon Blue.

Blue is extremely fast and versatile – but he’s just 196 pounds and doesn’t profile to be a featured back.

Here’s what this means…

Lamb’s top competition in 2025 will be Jalen Tolbert and Jake Ferguson.

Expect Lamb to lead the NFL in targets this season...

CeeDee Lamb could threaten for 200+ targets this season.

The Cowboys didn’t add a single WR in the draft.

And they only added Parris Campbell in free agency after losing Brandin Cooks.

Check this out…

Washington improved their O-Line with 1st round tackle Josh Conerly & trading for tackle Laremy Tunsil.

Both Brian Robinson & Austin Ekeler dealt with injuries in 2024 - but when healthy were productive.

Expect both to be values in 2025 drafts…

The Commanders RBs are rising up my rankings.

Washington didn’t add an RB until Round 7.

But it gets better because…

Najee averaged 275 carries per season as a Steeler.

Including a career-high 307 carries as a rookie.

Johnson is primed for a big role in Year 1…

Kaleb Johnson landed in the perfect spot.

He’s now a Steeler and should directly replace Najee Harris role in the offense.

The Steelers and Mike Tomlin are known for loading up their workhorse RBs.

Check this out…

The Jets didn’t bring in anyone to replace Davante Adams elite target share.

They only added Josh Reynolds & Tyler Johnson in free agency.

This means Wilson’s top competition is currently Allen Lazard and Reynolds…

Garrett Wilson should earn 150+ targets again this season.

The Jets only WR drafted was a 4th rounder in Arian Smith.

Smith spent 5 years at Georgia but didn’t produce until Year 5.

And that’s not all because…

Cook will once again compete with Ray Davis & Ty Johnson.

He should be the lead back – but expect a drop in production because its unlikely he scores 18 TDs again.

Cook may be overvalued in 2025 drafts – but he's a clear winner from the NFL Draft weekend...

The Bills had 9 draft picks and spent 0 on the RB position.

This makes James Cook a fantasy winner.

He’s been talking publicly how he wants a new contract with top end RB money.

The Bills could’ve taken an RB for leverage – but they didn’t…

Swift sets up as the RB1 on an improved offense, with an upgraded O-Line and new coach in Ben Johnson.

Now there is a chance Johnson uses Roschon Johnson more.

And Chicago could sign JK Dobbins or Nick Chubb before Week 1…

D’Andre Swift is a winner… for now.

The Bears didn’t draft an RB until the 7th round – and they didn’t sign one in free agency either.

Here’s what this means…

Williams being drafted to New England should only help Diggs.

The rookie can operate on the outside and stretch the field.

Which sets up more opportunities for Diggs in the short and middle areas of the field.

Diggs target potential is on the rise entering 2025…

Stefon Diggs.

The Patriots only added 3rd round WR Kyle Williams.

I’m a big fan of Williams – he already looks like the 2nd best WR on this team.

And believe it or not…

Pacheco has a clear path to being a Top 12 fantasy RB.

His main competition will be a 30-year-old Kareem Hunt – who only had 3 runs of 10+ yards last year.

Kansas City also signed Elijah Mitchell – who is often injured.

Pacheco is on the rise & so is this next WR…

Isiah Pacheco walks away from the draft a big winner.

The Chiefs didn’t add an RB until the 7th round in Brashard Smith – who's a converted WR.

Instead – Kansas City improved their O-Line with 1st round pick Josh Simmons.

Here’s what this means…

His main competition is currently Audric Estime.

Estime earned less than 6 carries per game as a rookie – in a backfield that was begging for someone to step up.

Harvey is the most talented back on the roster – with by far the best team investment…

RJ Harvey is the biggest fantasy winner from the NFL Draft.

He secures 2nd round draft capital on a quality Broncos offense with Sean Payton as his coach.

That’s great – but it gets even better because…

Brown’s touches may drop this season – the Bengals have echoed this all offseason.

But he’s still in line for 16-18 touches per game.

And he should be locked into plenty of cheat code opportunities (targets + redzone touches).

Brown is trending up & so is this next rookie…

Chase Brown is a big winner.

The Bengals only added 6th round RB Tahj Brooks.

This means Brown's primary competition will be Zack Moss and Samaje Perine.

Now here’s what this means…

The NFL Draft just flipped the fantasy football landscape.

Here are 10 players you need to move up your boards immediately:

The Rich Get Richer.

CeeDee Lamb and Garrett Wilson dodged any real competition this offseason.

Lamb has 200 targets in his range of outcomes.

Wilson's biggest competition is... Josh Reynolds?

That's all for now!

Concerns:

• Late breakout
• Questionable hands
• Field awareness still developing

But he’s a red zone weapon and versatile enough to stay on the field...

He also ran for 322 rushing yards + 6 TDs/

Now he’s not perfect:

5. Savion Williams – WR, TCU

Built like Brandon Marshall. Used like Deebo Samuel.

Williams is 6’4”, 222 lbs.

And in 2024?
