Top 3 Money-Worthy Wide Receivers for 2025 NFL Fantasy Football Drafts
Mike Evans, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' star wide receiver, is once again being touted as a potential steal in NFL fantasy drafts for the upcoming season. With a remarkable record of consistency, Evans managed to secure the 13th spot among receivers in .5 PPR leagues last year, boasting 1,051 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns.
The spotlight is on players who reek of value in fantasy drafts, and Evans could be a prime contender for this title once again. Gretzky Betzky, a host at Betting News and an avid fantasy football nerd, won the Betting News staff fantasy league last season and will be contributing his NFL fantasy football expertise in the fantasy football realm.
As for the top 3 value picks for NFL fantasy football wide receivers in 2024 according to Gretzky Betzky, specific information was not available. However, there are several players who could potentially make a splash this season.
One such player is Drake London, who could become the young quarterback's top target. London, a promising receiver out of USC, had a strong finish to the 2023 season, amassing 31 targets, nearly 300 receiving yards, and two touchdowns in the last two games. His performance earned him a place among the receivers typically available in round two, with the best shot to be top 5 in his position.
Another player to watch is DJ Moore, who has a proven track record of hitting 1,000+ receiving yards four times in his 7-year career. Moore will be playing with Caleb Williams for the second season, and if the young quarterback improves and finds stronger chemistry with Moore, this could be a "slam dunk" bet.
In Chicago, Declan Doyle, the new offensive coordinator, is implementing a pass-heavy scheme. This could potentially benefit a reliable wide receiver option like Moore, who is currently being drafted in the 4th round of NFL fantasy drafts.
As the first article in the series focusing on players for 12-team leagues with .5 PPR and not discussing Superflex, this is just the beginning of the discussion on the top value picks for NFL fantasy football 2024. Stay tuned for more insights from Gretzky Betzky and the Betting News team as we delve deeper into the fantasy football realm.
The anticipated NFL fantasy football season may see Mike Evans reclaiming his spot as a top value pick, given his consistent performance in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. In the realm of American football, Drake London, a rising star from USC, could be a breakout player to watch, with potential to be a top 5 wide receiver in NFL fantasy drafts.
