10 Fantasy Football Rookie Breakout Candidates: First-Year Impact Players to Target (2025) | Fantasy News

As the excitement builds for the 2025 NFL season, fantasy football enthusiasts are keenly eyeing rookies poised to make significant contributions. Among them, Cam Ward emerges as the clear starting QB for the Tennessee Titans, promising a dynamic playstyle and solid college statistics, including 39 touchdowns last season. Tyler Shough, filling the void left by Derek Carr at the New Orleans Saints, brings impressive college performance and the potential to shine in 2QB leagues.

The running back landscape features Ashton Jeanty from the Las Vegas Raiders, who boasts a record-breaking college season, and Omarion Hampton of the Los Angeles Chargers, both expected to carry heavy workloads. Quinshon Judkins, drafted by the Cleveland Browns, offers red-zone prowess, while Tetairoa McMillan and Travis Hunter enhance the receiving corps for the Carolina Panthers and Jacksonville Jaguars respectively, making them players to monitor closely as the season progresses.

Which rookie has the highest fantasy upside this season?What rookie QB should I draft for a two-QB league?Which rookie running back will have the most touches?Which rookie receiver could outperform expectations?

Omarion Hampton, Drake Powell make UNC one of six schools with first-round NFL, NBA Draft picks in 2025

Omarion Hampton and Drake Powell have elevated the University of North Carolina (UNC) into an elite category by becoming first-round draft picks in both the NFL and NBA in the same year. Hampton, a star running back, shattered multiple UNC rushing records, finishing his college career with 3,565 rushing yards and 36 touchdowns. He was selected 22nd overall by the Los Angeles Chargers. Meanwhile, Powell, who made an immediate impact in his freshman season, averaged 7.4 points and 3.3 rebounds per game and was drafted 22nd overall by the Brooklyn Nets, marking a significant achievement for both the football and basketball programs.

Despite the teams' struggles during the 2024 season, with the football team experiencing a disappointing finish and the basketball team exiting early from the NCAA tournament, the individual success of these players is a beacon of hope for UNC fans. This achievement places UNC in the company of just five other schools with first-round picks in both drafts, showcasing the talent cultivated in Chapel Hill.

What does it mean for UNC to have first-round picks in both football and basketball?What strategies can UNC implement for future success?How can individual player success translate to team improvement?How can UNC improve its recruiting strategy?

Broncos Predicted to Part Ways With Second-Year Running Back - Athlon Sports

The Denver Broncos have significantly revamped their running back lineup after the departure of Javonte Williams to free agency. The Broncos prioritized youth in the recent draft, selecting RJ Harvey, a two-year starter from UCF, with their second-round pick. Additionally, the team added veteran experience by signing J.K. Dobbins to a one-year contract worth $5.25 million. This move is aimed at strengthening a position that previously lacked depth and experience.

With the addition of Dobbins, the Broncos now have a two-pronged approach: a promising rookie alongside a seasoned player. This combination could provide the necessary balance as the team prepares for the upcoming season. The transition will be closely monitored as both players work to integrate into the team's offensive scheme and compete for key roles on the roster.

Sean McVay Gets Blamed For Failures by Mike McDaniel, Kliff Kingsbury - Athlon Sports

The hiring of Sean McVay as the head coach of the Los Angeles Rams sparked a trend in the NFL where teams began hiring younger coaches, igniting what is now known as the 'Sean McVay effect.' This phenomenon saw franchises seeking the next innovator in coaching, leading to the appointment of individuals like Kliff Kingsbury, Brandon Staley, and Mike McDaniel. However, many of these hires have not yielded the anticipated success, causing some to question the wisdom behind chasing the McVay model, especially as the results have been mixed at best.

Colin Cowherd pointed out that while the allure of McVay's youthful energy and success is enticing, the reality is that not all young coaches come with the necessary experience or track record to succeed. The podcast highlighted that while teams are eager to replicate the Rams' success, they might be overlooking the importance of proven leadership and experience in high-pressure situations. As the league continues to evolve, the balance between innovation and experience will be crucial when assessing coaching hires.

Projecting where CB Jalen Ramsey fits on the Steelers depth chart

In a significant move, the Pittsburgh Steelers are reportedly finalizing a trade to acquire All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey from the Miami Dolphins. This acquisition addresses a critical need for the Steelers, who recently lost starting cornerback Donte Jackson to the Los Angeles Chargers. The team had been exploring Ramsey's potential addition for weeks, and now they aim to bolster their already formidable defense.

Ramsey's arrival is expected to enhance the Steelers' secondary, which faced challenges following Jackson's departure. As a veteran and elite talent, Ramsey brings leadership and proven playmaking abilities to a defense that has consistently performed well. His presence could shift the dynamics within the secondary, potentially allowing the Steelers to employ more aggressive defensive strategies.
