With the 2025 NFL Draft just over a month away, three veteran wide receivers ranked outside the top 25 in ADP standings emerge as undervalued options for fantasy football managers in both dynasty and redraft leagues. Now is the time to swoop in and identify Dynasty Football: WR Values to Target.
As the sports world turns its attention to the men’s NCAA Sweet Sixteen, savvy fantasy football managers can seize the moment to make trades. With dynasty leagues heating up at the Fantasy Football World Championships (FFWC), now’s the perfect time to act.
Here are three veteran wideouts who stand out as prime value targets ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft.
WR Chris Godwin, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Fantasy managers in both dynasty and redraft leagues should zero in on Chris Godwin, a veteran wide receiver whose 2024 season ended prematurely due to an ankle injury in Week 7. After re-signing with Tampa Bay this month, Godwin’s mid-30s ADP belies his massive upside. Before his injury, the eighth-year pro racked up 50 catches for 576 yards and 5 touchdowns, averaging 19.7 PPR points per game. Remarkably, he was the WR2 overall—trailing only Ja’Marr Chase—through the season’s first seven weeks.
Godwin’s connection with Baker Mayfield was evident, as he drew 62 targets (fourth-most in the NFL) before his injury. Despite concerns about his recovery and a new offensive coordinator (Josh Grizzard), his current ADP as a back-end WR2 or top-end WR3 makes him a steal. In 2025, Godwin could deliver WR1 production, making him a must-target in the middle rounds.
WR Rashee Rice, Kansas City Chiefs
Rashee Rice’s 2024 season was derailed by a knee injury in Week 4, cutting short a promising campaign. Before going down against the Chargers, the second-year wideout established himself as Kansas City’s top receiving option, catching 24 of 29 targets for 288 yards and two touchdowns. When healthy, Rice is a WR1 thanks to his pairing with Patrick Mahomes. Recent updates suggest he’s ahead of schedule in his recovery.
However, a potential suspension tied to an off-field incident has clouded his outlook, pushing his ADP to WR26. If found guilty, Rice could face a four- or six-game ban, which might drop him to the mid-to-late rounds. Even with that risk, his upside alongside Mahomes makes him a high-reward stash for redraft or dynasty leagues—a potential league-winner if timed right.
WR Jakobi Meyers, Las Vegas Raiders
Despite a lackluster 2024 for the Raiders, Jakobi Meyers quietly finished as the WR19 in PPR leagues, posting 87 receptions, 1,027 yards, and 4 touchdowns. The sixth-year veteran ranked 15th in targets league-wide (129) and stands to gain even more with the arrival of quarterback Geno Smith. While tight end Brock Bowers will remain the team’s top target, Meyers’s 23.5% target share is too significant to ignore. Over the past three seasons, he’s averaged 75 catches and 879 yards and totaled 18 touchdowns.
With an ADP in the mid-40s, Meyers is a WR3/WR4 with WR2 potential, especially under new offensive coordinator Chip Kelly. If the Raiders don’t draft a first-round wideout next month, Meyers will stay their WR1, making him a reliable PPR option for 2025. His lack of competition for targets beyond Bowers only boosts his appeal.
