  • Breaking down the 2025 rookie class into tiers for both 1-QB and superflex formats: Considering the weaker quarterback class, these rankings shake out much differently than with rookie drafts of years past.
  • Ashton Jeanty still stands alone at the top of both rankings: The Las Vegas Raiders‘ new starting running back is the clear top fantasy option in this class and even superflex drafters shouldn’t deviate with the first overall pick.

The highest-scoring running back in the prospect model since 2017 lands in an ideal landing spot to dominate touches immediately in his NFL career. There wasn’t going to be much question about Ashton Jeanty doing this, regardless of landing spot, but on the Las Vegas Raiders, where there is no competition in the backfield, this is as clear a path to touches as there is available. Giving a player with a record-breaking career PFF rushing grade (99.9) who ranked no worse than 97th percentile in missed tackles forced per attempt (0.38), yards after contact per attempt (4.76) and overall career production (5,627 total yards), a massive workload is sure to translate to elite fantasy production.
