2025 Fantasy football draft prep: Experts reveal rankings, strategy guide, rookie advice, top 150 players
SportsLine's 2025 Fantasy football draft guide includes Fantasy football auction values, keeper advice, top rookies, mock drafts and more

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers head into the season with a seemingly loaded wide receiver corps, as rookie Emeka Egbuka joins veterans Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. While it is not the easiest path to a Fantasy football breakout season for Egbuka, there are reasons to be concerned about both veterans. Godwin is coming off a dislocated ankle, while Evans is entering his age 31 season. If either of them wind up among the 2025 Fantasy football busts, Egbuka could be flying under the radar in 2025 Fantasy football drafts.
Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield racked up 4,500 passing yards last season, and he will be a popular choice with Fantasy football stacks. Which Tampa Bay players should you target with your 2025 Fantasy football lineups? Whether you're hunting for a 2025 Fantasy football top 150 you can trust, potential 2025 Fantasy football breakouts, sleepers, and busts, or position-specific 2025 Fantasy football rankings, be sure to see what the 2025 Fantasy football draft bible at SportsLine has to say.

Top 2025 Fantasy football picks, advice
The Fantasy football draft bible features Nagel's 2025 Fantasy football strategy for drafting quarterbacks, including:
Let the QB come to you:
"A quarterback with rushing upside is preferable but not mandatory, and dual-threats can still be found later in drafts," Nagel told SportsLine. "Recent data suggests multiple rounds worth of value can be extracted by being patient with your QB selection. For instance, last year, [Jayden] Daniels finished with an average of 21.5 points in PPR leagues, while Jared Goff of the Lions averaged 19.8. Goff currently has an ADP of No. 110 in CBS leagues, suggesting a sacrifice of just 1.7 points per game could be worth five rounds of draft equity."
Early isn't always wrong:
"The primary protagonist for early drafting is Bills quarterback Josh Allen, the reliable dual threat who is a prized commodity across all formats. Allen has finished no worse than third at his position in PPR leagues each of the past three seasons and has started every game for six consecutive seasons. In other words, those who grab him early are practically guaranteed a non-bust in return for their investment, as well as the positional advantage in just about every weekly matchup," Nagel said.
