I still haven’t emotionally recovered from my 2025 Jaydon Blue hype…🥀
With peak draft season in full swing, today’s newsletter is going to highlight the best pick you can make in every round. We’ll use FantasyPros’ Real-Time ADP as a guideline and assume a typical 10-team, Half-PPR, single-QB league with 16 rounds. While every league is different, this exercise should at least give you some targets to keep in mind at all levels of your upcoming drafts.
Let’s get after it…

Round 1: WR Amon-Ra St. Brown (ADP: 8th overall)
The Sun God has finished as the WR3 in each of the past three seasons while averaging 159.3 targets, 1,393 yards and 11 TDs over that span. The Lions are also primed for shootouts with the softest schedule in the league, a bad defense, and the vast majority of their games being either indoors or in optimal conditions. This should allow St. Brown’s ceiling to be as enticing as his well-established floor (he leads all skill players with 34 games of 15+ PPR points, per PFSN’s Jason Katz). You can’t go broke taking a profit.
