When preparing for your fantasy football drafts, knowing which players to target and others to avoid is important. The amount of information available can be overwhelming, so a great way to condense the data and determine players to draft and others to leave for your leaguemates is to use our expert consensus fantasy football rankings compared to fantasy football average draft position (ADP). In this way, you can identify players the experts are willing to reach for at ADP and others they are not drafting until much later than average. Let’s dive into a few of the best fantasy football draft values on each of the top commissioner sites.

Kenneth Walker III (RB – SEA) | ADP: 42.5 (RB16)
Unfortunately, Kenneth Walker missed a career-high six games last season because of injury. Yet, he had an outstanding year when healthy. The former Michigan star was the RB12 on a points per game (PPG) basis, averaging 16.5 PPR fantasy points per outing.
Furthermore, Walker posted a career-high 4.6% rushing touchdown rate, totaling seven scores in 11 games. More importantly, he set career highs in receptions (46) and targets (54) despite missing significant time with injuries. Don’t be surprised if Walker is even more involved in the passing game under new offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak.
Jaydon Blue (RB – DAL) | ADP: 128.8 (RB47)
I have been pounding the table all offseason for Jaydon Blue, as he is my favorite sleeper target. Blue has been standing out at training camp, earning first-team reps.
Meanwhile, Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders had an explosive run rate of 2.9% or lower last year, ranking in the bottom 20 out of 68 running backs with at least 55 attempts, per Fantasy Points Data. By comparison, Blue is an explosive runner with massive upside in the passing game, totaling six receiving touchdowns last season. He could be this year’s Bucky Irving.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba (WR – SEA): ECR: 19 | ADP: 34
After playing third-fiddle to DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett during his rookie campaign, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba ascended to No. 1 WR status last season. He led the Seahawks with 100 receptions, 1,130 receiving yards and six touchdown receptions.
Smith-Njigba averaged 14.9 points per game last season, finishing as the WR9 in PPR formats. Despite that breakout season, he is being drafted as the WR15 on ESPN.
That may be due to Seattle replacing quarterback Geno Smith with Sam Darnold, but Smith-Njigba could be in line for even more volume after the departures of Metcalf and Lockett this offseason.
The Seahawks did sign former Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp to a three-year, $45 million contract this offseason, but Smith-Njigba should remain the alpha in Seattle’s wide receiver room. Some risk is involved, but the potential downgrade in quarterback doesn’t justify a 15-spot difference between Smith-Njigba’s FantasyPros expert consensus ranking (ECR) and his ADP.
Other values at wide receiver include Nico Collins, Brian Thomas Jr., Drake London and Ladd McConkey. However, Smith-Njigba might be the most mispriced of them all.

Stefon Diggs (NE) – ADP 93.5 | WR43
Unfortunately, Diggs suffered a torn ACL in Week 8 last season. However, the veteran was playing well before getting hurt, ranking as the WR6 over the first seven weeks, averaging 7.9 targets and 15.6 PPR fantasy points per game despite splitting targets with Nico Collins and Tank Dell. More importantly, he is the unquestioned No. 1 wide receiver in what should be a significantly improved Patriots’ passing attack. If the veteran wide receiver is ready for Week 1, Diggs should end the year no lower than a high-end WR3.
Darnell Mooney (ATL) – ADP 1110.7 | WR49
While fantasy players should have high hopes for Drake London in 2025, don’t forget about Mooney. He won’t be a league winner and finish the season inside the top-24 wide receivers. Yet, the veteran is vastly underrated, ranking outside the top-48 wide receivers in ADP after finishing last year as the WR31, averaging 12.1 PPR fantasy points per game, totaling a career-high five receiving touchdowns. According to Fantasy Points Data, Mooney ranked inside the top 36 wide receivers in air-yard share (33%), first-read target share (26.2%), and deep targets (17).
