Coming this summer!

Dynasty | The Houston Texans drafted Iowa State receiver Jayden Higgins with the 34th pick of the 2025 NFL Draft. Dynasty Analysis: It didn't take long for Higgins to hear his name called on day two as the Texans took him with the second pick of the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft. With Tank Dell's injury situation still murky and Houston only adding Christian Kirk in the off-season, this looks like a solid landing spot for the former cyclone and shoudl solidify his spot as no worse than a high second round rookie pick.

Dynasty | The Cleveland Browns selected Ohio State running back Quinshon Judkins with the 36th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Dynasty Analysis: While Cleveland has struggled mightily for the better part of the last two decades, they've had no problem making running backs relevant - just ask anyone who had Nick Chubb the last five or six years. Judkins gets to stay close to home and immediately becomes the lead back in Cleveland over Jerome Ford. He should be a three down option and immediate lineup lock in dynasty leagues as a top five rookie pick.

Dynasty | The Browns drafted Ohio State running back Quinshon Judkins with the 36th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Dynasty Analysis: Nobody really expected Ford to both enter and leave the 2025 NFL Draft as the starter and low and behold, the Browns didn't wait long to secure one of the top five running backs in the class. Judkins is a hard-nosed bruiser who can play on all three downs. While Ford could still have some value, he's no better than a change-of-pace back now. This also likely ends any chance of Nick Chubb returning to Cleveland next season.

Dynasty | The New England Patriots drafted running back TreVeyon Henderson with the 38th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Dynasty Analysis: There was great debate as to which Ohio State running back would go first and it really ended up in a virtual tie as Quinshon Judkins was taken at #36 by Cleveland and Henderson was taken at #38 by New England. Henderson should slot on as at least the third down back complementing Rhamondre Stevenson, but he's also good enough to overtake him completely in time. While Ashton Jeanty, Omarion Hampton and Judkins will likely go 1-2-3 in most rookie drafts at the running back position, Henderson is going to be a pretty nice consolation prize and you're going to have to take him in round one if you love his chances.

Dynasty | The Patriots drafted Ohio State running back Rhamondre Stevenson with the 38th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Dynasty Analysis: Stevenson is going to need to really perform well to keep the "thunder" part of what could be a "thunder and lightning" backfield moving forward because Henderson represents the biggest threat to playing time he's seen for quite some time. Stevenson himself was disappointing last season as his production was scattered and unpredictable. In reality, the selection of Henderson could make playing Stevenson a very risky proposition in dynasty leagues moving forward.

Dynasty | The Chicago Bears drafted Missouri wide receiver Luther Burden with the 39th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Dynasty Analysis: It's a curious pick and one that really looks like a selection that's better in reality than fantasy. The Bears already have DJ Moore, Rome Odunze, D'Andre Swift and the newly drafted Colston Loveland to throw the ball to. Burden is ultra-talented but this landing spot may not help his dynasty stock much as he'll likely fall to the late first or early second round of most dynasty rookie drafts. #buzzkill.

Dynasty | The Bears drafted Missouri wide receiver Luther Burden with the 39th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Dynasty Analysis: Williams already had DJ Moore, D'Andre Swift, Cole Kmet, and Rome Odunze to sling the ball to, but Chicago is clearly serious about setting him up for success as they've now added Michigan tight end Colston Loveland and now Burden. Williams started showing some solid signs last season and the loss of Keenan Allen now looks pretty negligible to his future as he's looking like a potential breakout QB1 next season.

The Buffalo Bills have traded up to the 41st overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. In full, Buffalo acquired the 41st, 72nd, and 240th picks from the Chicago Bears in exchange for the 56th, 62nd, and 109th picks. The Bills drafted cornerback Maxwell Hairston with their own pick in the first round Thursday, and now they're making an aggressive trade to move up in the second round. The deal also arms Chicago with two new second-round picks, plus a fourth-round selection. The Bears have been very devoted to improving their offense so far, selecting Michigan tight end Colston Loveland and Missouri wide receiver Luther Burden.UPDATE: Buffalo took South Carolina defensive tackle T.J. Sanders with the 41st overall pick.

The Bears selected wide receiver Luther Burdenout of Missouri with the No. 39 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Burden earned first-team All-SEC honors in 2024 after leading the Tigers with 61 catches for 676 receiving yards and six receiving touchdowns. He was even better in 2023 with 86 catches for 1,212 yards and 9 receiving touchdowns. He joins a very crowded wide receiver room alongside DJ Moore and Rome Odunze, but he gives the Bears even more options for second-year QB Caleb Williams in new head coach Ben Johnson's offense. If Burden steps in as the primary slot receiver in Johnson's system, he could be set for a huge rookie year as he plays the role that made Amon-Ra St. Brown a star in Detroit. He'll be high-risk until we get a clearer picture of his role, but he has a very high ceiling if he secures enough of the target share in Chicago.

The Patriots selected running back TreVeyon Henderson from Ohio State near the start of the second round with the No. 38 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Last year, Henderson helped lead the Buckeyes to the 2025 College Football Playoffs National Championship and scored 48 career touchdowns, the third-most in OSU history. He also ranks third in the history of Ohio State in all-purpose yards with 4,614 career yards. In 2024, he averaged 7.1 yards per carry and racked up 1,016 yards and 10 touchdowns on the ground while adding 284 receiving yards and a touchdown as a receiver. His one receiving touchdown came in the Cotton Bowl against Texas. Henderson will join Rhamondre Stevenson, who just signed a four-year, $36 million extension before last season, and Antonio Gibson, who has two years left on his contract. Henderson is an interesting addition to the mix, but his role and playing time is very uncertain unless the Patriots move on from one of those veteran rushers.

The Cleveland Browns selected Ohio State running back Quinshon Judkins with the 36th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. This was Cleveland's third selection of the draft, but the first they spent on an offensive player. Judkins is no stranger to the state of Ohio after spending his final collegiate season with the Buckeyes. As a senior, he totaled 1,060 rushing yards, 161 receiving yards, and 16 total touchdowns. The Browns hope Judkins can step up as their next franchise running back after a brief period of inconsistency at the position. Nick Chubb was previously the go-to running back in Cleveland, but he was never the same after his brutal knee injury in 2023. Chubb is currently a free agent, and the Browns entered the draft with a backfield featuring Jerome Ford and Pierre Strong Jr. Look for Kevin Stefanski to get Judkins involved right away, even if Ford and Strong remain involved to open the season.

The Houston Texans selected Iowa State wide receiver Jayden Higgins with the 34th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Houston obtained this pick from the New York Giants, who previously moved up to select Jaxson Dart in Round 1. After four wide receivers were drafted in the first round of the draft Thursday night, Higgins became the first receiver selected in the second round Friday. He caught 87 passes for 1,183 yards and nine touchdowns during his final collegiate season. Known for his large wingspan and outstanding ball skills, Higgins could contribute right away with the Texans. Houston lost Stefon Diggs via free agency this offseason, and they'll likely open the 2025 season without Tank Dell (knee) as he recovers from a torn ACL. Higgins will have a chance to earn reps in three-receiver sets alongside Nico Collins and offseason addition Christian Kirk.

NFL Network's Tom Pelissero said on the Dan Patrick Show that it's "entirely possible" that Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough is taken in Round 2 of the 2025 NFL draft on Friday night before Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders. "The wildest rumor is that the third QB off the board will not be Shedeur Sanders, it will not be Jalen Milroe it'll be Tyler Shough," Pelissero said. Shough was Justin Herbert's backup at Oregon for two years, but he's gained a lot of steam going into the second round and could go as high as No. 33 overall to the Cleveland Browns. The 25-year-old's experience, size (6-foot-5, 219 pounds) and arm strength are all things that are intriguing to NFL teams and that could set him apart from Sanders. Like Sanders, Shough is more of a pocket passer, but teams could be scared away from him early in the second round after he suffered injuries in three straight years.

The Las Vegas Raiders waived running back Isaiah Spiller, wide receiver Ramel Keyton, cornerback M.J. Devonshire, defensive tackle Tyler Manoa and linebackers Kana'i Mauga and Jackson Mitchell before the start of Round 2 of the 2025 NFL draft on Friday. Spiller, the former fourth-rounder by the Los Angeles Chargers in 2022 out of Texas A&M, is by far the biggest name on this list of cuts for the Raiders. The 23-year-old didn't see the field at all in 2024 and will now hit the open market after the Raiders pulled the trigger and took Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty at No. 6 overall in the first round on Thursday evening. In his two seasons with the Chargers in 2022 and 2023, Spiller had only 55 rushing attempts for 137 yards (2.5 yards per carry) and no touchdowns. He added nine receptions for 47 yards through the air. Spiller will now look to latch on with another team as RB depth.

NFL Network's Mike Garafolo says that Virginia Tech running back Bhayshul Tuten has gained steam as a potential pick in the third round of this year's NFL draft on Friday night. Garafolo thinks that Tuten is a good match for the Dallas Cowboys, a team that he visited with during the pre-draft process. Tuten ran the fastest 40-yard dash (4.32 seconds) among all RBs at this year's scouting combine back in February. He has average size at 5-foot-9 and 206 pounds, but he is explosive on the ground and has elite straight-line speed as a downhill runner. The Cowboys are being coy about not having to take a running back in this year's draft, but we're not buying that they are comfortable going into the 2025 season with Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders as their top backs. This year's RB class is deep, though, so Dallas should have plenty to choose from at pick No. 76 overall in Round 3 on Friday night.

NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe reports that the Cleveland Browns are fielding calls for the first pick of Round 2 on Friday night at No. 33 overall. The Browns already agreed to a blockbuster trade with the Jacksonville Jaguars at the top of the first round on Thursday that moved them from the No. 2 pick to No. 5, where they selected Michigan defensive tackle Mason Graham. Cleveland has more reason to trade back in the second round after acquiring the No. 36 overall pick from the Jaguars on Thursday. If the Browns stay put with the first pick in the second round, it's possible they could take Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders after he fell out of the first round entirely. Cleveland is one of the most QB-needy team with Deshaun Watson (Achilles) expected to miss all of 2025 and with only Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett their current healthy options.

The Athletic's Dianna Russini reports that the Pittsburgh Steelers have been receiving calls about the availability of wide receiver George Pickens, according to sources. The Steelers are open to conversations as they navigate the second round of this year's NFL draft. Pittsburgh gave away their second-round pick this year to acquire wideout DK Metcalf from the Seattle Seahawks earlier this offseason. At No. 21 overall in the first round on Thursday night, the Steelers passed on a quarterback and running back to select Oregon defensive tackle Derrick Harmon. They are now weighing their needs at QB and RB heading into the second round on Friday night against a potential trade of Pickens, who has displayed maturity issues in his time with the team. The Steelers are excited about the possibility of having a 1-2 punch of Metcalf and Pickens, but they might cave in if they're presented with a great offer.

Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said on 105.3 The Fan that the team doesn't necessarily have to draft a running back this year. "I like what we did in free agency. We don't really feel like we have to pick a position anywhere. We don't feel the need to have to reach," Jones said. Dallas let last year's starter, Rico Dowdle, walk in free agency while adding both Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders. A backfield led by Williams and Sanders in 2025 would be a step back for the Cowboys after a disappointing 2024 season that ended without a postseason appearance, so we would be surprised if Dallas didn't address their backfield in this year's draft, possibly in the second round on Friday night. They have one pick in Round 2 (44th overall) and one pick in Round 3 (76th overall), and there's a pretty good chance one of those will go to the RB position.

Now that the Tennessee Titans officially took Miami quarterback Cam Ward with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft on Thursday night, former second-round QB Will Levis could be traded soon after going 5-16 a a starter with more turnovers (26 interceptions and fumbles lost combined) than touchdown passes (21). General manager Ran Carthon, who traded up for Levis in 2023, has already been fired, and Levis was benched in 2024. The Titans have insisted that Levis will be given a chance to compete with Ward, but the Titans still lack a third-round pick in this year's draft, and trading Levis could get them back into that round. The 25-year-old's dynasty stock has already taken a big hit after he looked terrible as Tennessee's starter last year, and now with Ward in town, the best hope for his long-term value is a trade out of town.

Carolina Panthers rookie wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan said that quarterback Bryce Young told head coach Dave Canales and general manager Dan Morgan that the team needed to draft him. Young vouched for McMillan, and the Panthers listed and selected the 22-year-old Arizona product with the eighth overall pick of the 2025 NFL draft on Thursday night. The 6-foot-4 pass-catcher excels on contested catches down the field and should immediately be a starter in three-wide sets for the team in 2025 next to Xavier Legette and veteran Adam Thielen. McMillan will give Young a wide catch radius, but there are questions about how much separation he will be able to get on a consistent basis at the next level. If it's true that Young was adamant about the team drafting McMillan, the two could quickly form a strong connection that helps McMillan become fantasy relevant in Year 1.
