In 2025, fantasy football analysts have more statistics at their disposal than ever before. But despite the volume of available information, there are still players who are so polarizing that the brightest minds can’t agree on their projections.

Fantasy Football: Most overrated picks in the first 10 rounds of a 10-team, half-PPR league draft
In fantasy football drafts, knowing who to dodge is just as crucial as picking the right stars. A couple of bad calls can throw your whole season off track.[Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season]Here's my list of players I'm steering clear of based on their current Yahoo ADP in a 10-team, half-PPR league.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementRound 1: Christian McCaffrey – RB, San Francisco 49ersMcCaffrey is still dominant when on the field, but his durability concerns make him a risky first-rounder. He's managed to play more than 10 games just three times in the past seven seasons and San Francisco wisely added Brian Robinson Jr. to help shoulder the load for the oft-injured, all-purpose back.An expected reduction in touches combined with recurring injuries lowers his floor. With the eighth overall pick, managers should favor a wide receiver […]

Delaware entering first FBS season unafraid with Ryan Carty in charge: ‘We didn’t make this jump to float around’
Delaware football has won six national championships in a rich but relatively unexplored history that began in the late 1800s.The program has had only six head coaches since 1966. That's the year the late, great Tubby Raymond first took the reins in Newark. He won 300 games and three of those national titles en route to the College Football Hall of Fame.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementDelaware has had five quarterbacks drafted since 1979. That's as many as Clemson, one fewer than Texas and two fewer than Texas A&M in that span.The most recent Blue Hen signal-caller to hear his name called on draft day was Joe Flacco, a Super Bowl MVP in 2013 who won NFL Comeback Player of the Year two seasons ago and is still a viable starter in the league at 40 years old. Before him came Rich Gannon, a four-time […]
