Second-year WR busts to fade in 2025 loom large for fantasy in deep leagues. Xavier Legette’s path in Carolina remains crowded behind Thielen and Tetairoa McMillan; Ja’Lynn Polk is out for the year with IR; Adonai Mitchell faces heavy Colts competition and questionable QB play. Malachi Corley and Jermaine Burton look unlikely to land steady targets amid roster depth. Harrison Jr., Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas Jr. headline the upside, with Rome Odunze and Xavier Worthy as potential, risk-adjusted picks.

In Dynasty, Harrison Jr. is the clear anchor for 2025, Nabers and Thomas offer significant on-roster value, and Odunze/Worthy can yield weeks of spike potential depending on usage. The article stresses drafting approach: avoid the obvious busts, chase the high-variance upside options on strong offenses, and have contingency plans for injuries and depth-chart shifts.
