The Los Angeles Rams added more weapons to an already explosive offense this offseason. The Rams signed veteran wide receiver Davante Adams, who’s hauled in 957 receptions for 11,844 yards and 103 touchdowns during his career. Adams recorded 85 catches for 1,063 yards and eight touchdowns over 14 regular-season games split between the Raiders (three) and Jets (11) in 2024. Now, Adams will join an offense that features Matthew Stafford, Kyren Williams and Puka Nacua.Â
Will Adams be among the top wide receivers in the 2025 Fantasy football rankings, or should you target another veteran wideout on a new team like Commanders WR Deebo Samuel? Before setting your 2025 Fantasy football draft strategy, be sure to check out the 2025 Fantasy football rankings and cheat sheets from the proven computer model at SportsLine.
Last year, the model accurately predicted that Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud might take a step back in his second season. He finished as QB18 and anybody who avoided drafting him early dodged a major headache in their Fantasy football lineups.Â
The same model has a proven track record providing Fantasy football tips, identifying A.J. Brown as a sleeper in 2020, nailing Jonathan Taylor’s monstrous season in 2021 and calling Rachaad White’s breakout in 2023. Additionally, it has called past Fantasy football sleepers like Derrick Henry in 2019, Christian McCaffrey and Alvin Kamara in 2018, and Davante Adams in 2017.Â
Now, SportsLine has simulated the entire NFL season 10,000 times and released its latest 2025 Fantasy football rankings for PPR and non-PPR leagues, along with plenty of sleepers, breakouts and busts. Head to SportsLine now to see them.Â
Top 2025 Fantasy football sleepers
One of the 2025 Fantasy football sleepers the model is predicting: Commanders running back Austin Ekeler. The 30-year-old is being overlooked in Fantasy drafts due to Washington’s crowded backfield, which includes Brian Robinson Jr. and Chris Rodriguez Jr. However, Ekeler was productive when healthy last year, scoring double-digit PPR points in eight out of his 12 games.
He had 134 yards from scrimmage and scored three touchdowns in two games when Robinson was sidelined with a hamstring injury, showing that he still has a high ceiling. Another injury to Robinson could open the door for a return to RB1 status for Ekeler. SportsLine’s model has him ranked ahead of running backs like J.K. Dobbins and Quinshon Judkins, who are both going off the board before Ekeler in consensus ADP data. See more Fantasy football sleepers 2025 here.
Top 2025 Fantasy football breakouts
One of the 2025 Fantasy football breakouts the model is predicting: Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty. Jeanty enters the NFL following a dominant final season at Boise State, where he totaled over 1,800 yards and 19 touchdowns. A true three-down back, Jeanty combines elite balance, tackle-breaking strength and proven pass-catching ability, hauling in over 40 receptions in 2024. His all-around skill set made him one of college football’s most versatile offensive weapons and a nightmare for opposing defenses.
Jeanty, the No. 6 overall pick in the NFL Draft, is expected to be the focal point of the Raiders’ ground game from Day 1. He lands in an ideal situation under new offensive coordinator Chip Kelly, who has a track record of maximizing dynamic running backs, and head coach Pete Carroll, who favors a run-heavy philosophy. With a strong supporting scheme and immediate opportunity, Jeanty is well-positioned to become a Fantasy football standout and one of the league’s most impactful rookie playmakers. See more Fantasy football breakouts 2025 here.
Top 2025 Fantasy football busts
As for players to avoid, the model lists Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman as one of its 2025 Fantasy football busts. Bateman had his most productive season of his career in 2024, suiting up for all 17 regular-season contests and securing 45 of 72 targets for 759 yards.
However, he had an up-and-down season in terms of Fantasy production in 2024. He had outbursts of 23, 22.1, and 18.6 points last year, and scored four touchdowns in those three games combined. Bateman was also held below 50 receiving yards in nine of his 17 games, making him a boom-or-bust candidate to include in your Fantasy football lineups. That’s a big reason why the model ranks him as WR36 in its 2025 Fantasy football rankings, behind wideouts like Jakobi Meyers, Quentin Johnston and Jerry Jeudy, all of whom are being drafted later. See more Fantasy football busts 2025 here.
