The 2025 regular season quickly approaches, as many fantasy football drafts are already underway. Stadium Rant has all the best NFL coverage, including who to fade and top-valued running backs for non-PPR redrafts. Every year, many players finish above their average draft position (ADP). This is a list of the most undervalued players at each position. Strategize well to get the full potential of their value. Stats and rankings provided by the Sleeper App.
It doesn’t take the most savvy of fantasy managers to draft names like Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, or Joe Burrow. Perhaps a better decision in redraft leagues, Baker Mayfield currently has an ADP of 65.0. He trailed Allen in fantasy points per game by only 0.19, finishing the season as QB4. It may cost the team a possession from time to time, but the gunslinger is undervalued in fantasy.
Overshadowed by the quarterback and receivers, Chase Brown is in the darkness, ready to light the fantasy world on fire. Despite starting on the bench last year, he finished RB10 in PPR, where he has even further value. There’s top-five potential with an ADP of 28.4. As reported on the Sleeper app, the Bengals are on record to indicate an increased role in the upcoming campaign. The 25-year-old is in line for a breakout season.
One will still need to choose him early, but Malik Nabers is still an undervalued asset. Despite a rotation of depressing quarterback play on a terrible Giants’ team, he still managed 18.25 fantasy points per game in his rookie season. Heading into his second year, the team has made numerous promising moves this offseason. This should be the third receiver off the board in dynasty PPR drafts, even if he’s ranked below five other receivers in ADP.
After rumors of leaving town, Mark Andrews shocked the world by signing an extension with the Ravens this offseason. His ADP indicates him as the seventh tight end off the board, but there are only two others worth choosing first for redraft, and just one extra in dynasty leagues. NFL fans may be sour on the tight end after a couple of untimely drops last season, or that he started 2024-25 with 12.5 fantasy points over the first three games, allowing it to cloud their judgment. This is the starting tight end of the best offense in football, who finished TE6; there’s plenty of value to squeeze.
Fantasy managers should still draft the proven elite, but with the right plan, they could steal value from their unsuspecting competition. Andrews and Brown could be paired with their quarterback for a potent one-two punch.
