Pre-Draft WR Hub
The 2025 fantasy football season is rapidly approaching! I have a pre-draft hub for each offensive position (QB, RB, WR, TE) with a sleeper, a breakout, and a bust. Mike here as always helping you get to fantasy football glory. Good luck and happy drafting.
SLEEPER – Jauan Jennings (San Francisco 49ers)
Jauan Jennings had his best season last year when he scored 6 receiving TDs and was 25 yards short of hitting 1000 receiving yards. The 49ers are going to lean on Jennings a bit to start the year because Brandon Aiyuk is currently injured and will miss time, and Deebo Samuel is now a Commander. Brock Purdy still has George Kittle and Christian McCaffrey as his main weapons, but Jennings is certainly right up there. Most have Jauan in the late 30s, early 40s for WR rankings, but I could see him being top 25 when all is said and done.
BREAKOUT – Jameson Williams (Detroit Lions)
Jameson Williams has been getting better every year he has been in the league. His most recent season was his best catching 58 passes for 1001 receiving yards and 7 receiving TDs. Williams is in the peak of his career and is on a team where he can showcase his talents. Jared Goff has numerous weapons, but it is clear that Jameson is growing on his targets and playing time. He is around the 27th in WR rankings for most, but he could easily be top 20 if he stays healthy. Williams and Amon-Ra St. Brown could be one of the best WR duos in the game.
BUST – Cooper Kupp (Seattle Seahawks)
Cooper Kupp has certainly seen better days. He is going into his first year with the Seattle Seahawks and is most likely going to be WR2. We have seen him win the triple crown of WRs back in 2021, but since has been rather mediocre. He has under 815 receiving yards 3 years in a row averaging under 6 TDs per season in that timespan. Change of scenery might be great for Kupp, but it’s also a different system, with a different coach, and a different QB. Kupp is in the mid 40s for WR rankings this season and that might be a little to high for him. We will see but I’m going to avoid Kupp this season.
