Hockenson is selected in Rounds 11-16 as a shot for the moon in case he gets back to his pre-ACL surgery form, indicating potential for significant upside if healthy.

Hunter is selected in Rounds 11-16 as a late bet on the talent that could really pop, indicating upside potential despite late-round selection.

Higgins is selected in Rounds 11-16 as an upside play in Year 2, indicating potential for increased production in his second season.

Shakir is selected in Rounds 11-16 as a floor play, indicating limited upside but reliable production.

Wilson is noted as being at a tier break because the WRs dried up after him; he's selected as Matthew Berry's first reserve in Round 8.

Price is selected in Round 7 as a wild card; if he takes over the Seattle backfield this will be a steal at this point in the draft.

Downs is identified as one of the primary targets for Daniel Jones alongside Tyler Warren, indicating significant target share opportunity.

Pierce is noted as possibly getting off to a slow start due to his offseason surgery, making him less attractive early in the season.

Godwin will get plenty of looks in Tampa Bay; mentioned as a WR option in the Round 3-5 range alongside other clear WR1 targets.

McLaurin is identified as a clear WR1 target on his team and Matthew Berry states he can't stop, won't stop drafting him in Round 5, calling him one of the steals of the draft this year.

Egbuka is identified as a clear WR1 target on his team and Matthew Berry notes he could really explode in a high-volume attack, making him an attractive Round 3-5 range pick.

Wilson is projected for 139 targets and is identified as a clear WR1 target on his team; Matthew Berry notes that while Wilson will have never caught regular-season passes from Geno Smith when Week 1 rolls around, if he gets anywhere near the 139 targets projected, this is a great WR1 option.

Barkley is projected at 284 rush attempts with over 1,500 scrimmage yards; Matthew Berry selects him in Round 2 as the clear RB1, noting better health on the offensive line and improved scheme after his gargantuan 2024 Super Bowl run.

Cook is selected in Round 1 at pick 1.10; Matthew Berry notes 28 TDs in the past two seasons and highlights his great offense featuring one of the best o-lines in the game, making him a strong Hero RB start.

Willis is positioned as a breakout candidate if he builds on impressive performances late in his Green Bay tenure; Matthew Berry notes that having Willis on the bench is comforting because he could become something early enough in the season that he won't want to drop him, and if he pops, those decisions during the fantasy playoffs are a great problem to have.

Willis's schedule offers multiple exploitable matchups; Weeks 1-2 feature Rams games (49ers in Australia, Giants at home), Weeks 9-10 see Dolphins hosting Lions and traveling to Indianapolis with both games seeing points scored, and Week 17 championship week offers Willis hosting the Chargers or potentially playing in Miami against Buffalo.
