Fantasy Football Rankings 2025: Busts from model that predicted Raheem Mostert’s rough season

SportsLine simulated the new NFL season 10,000 times, identifying Fantasy football players to avoid during drafts.

Overview of Last Season’s Performance

Travis Kelce’s dominance as a top Fantasy tight end faltered last year, finishing TE10 after consistently ranking among the top three for eight seasons. At 36, he is the oldest tight end in the league. As the trend suggests a decline in performance, expectations should be moderated for the upcoming season.

In contrast, Breece Hall and Justin Herbert may not meet inflated expectations following previous seasons, with both being advised against for draft consideration.

Key Fantasy Insights

• Travis Kelce: Age and declining performance raise concerns about his ranking for the next season.
• Justin Herbert: Limited by a pass-heavy scheme and a focus on running backs diminishes his potential as a top QB.

Major Busts to Avoid in 2025

1. Justin Herbert: Predicted to fall outside the top 15 Fantasy quarterbacks due to unfavorable team dynamics.
2. Breece Hall: Faces competition within the Jets’ RB crew, reducing his expected contributions.
