As fantasy football enthusiasts gear up for the 2025 season, some veterans could be best avoided based on their current average draft position (ADP). Key players to steer clear of include Terry McLaurin, who had a career year but saw a surge in touchdowns that may not repeat. Similarly, DK Metcalf's recent trade to the Pittsburgh Steelers raises concerns over his target share, especially with potential new additions to the roster. Deebo Samuel, entering his age-29 season, poses an injury risk and finished last year as WR50 in fantasy points per game. Likewise, Cooper Kupp's transition to the Seattle Seahawks, coupled with a declining performance, makes him a risky pick. Finally, tight end Jonnu Smith rounds out the list as a player with diminishing returns.
