Pete Overzet provides an overview of all the content and programming that Fantasy Life will distribute during NFL Draft Week.

If Kevin Costner is the star of Draft Day, then consider Fantasy Life the leading actor for Draft Week.

We've been hard at work over the past few months covering every nook and cranny of the 2025 NFL Draft with no stone left unturned. 

And because we know it can be tricky to keep up with everything, I've put together a comprehensive guide for all our draft content so you can fully enjoy this glorious event.

Whether you've been tracking every single mock draft and NFL rumor up to this point or you are just diving in for the first time, consider this the ultimate cheat sheet for this week's draft festivities. 

Let's dig in …

Final Mock Drafts

Thor Nystrom and Matthew Freedman have been churning out high-quality mock drafts all spring and they both will be publishing their final versions later this week:

  • Thor's Final Mock Draft (Wed 4/23)
  • Freedman's Final Mock Draft (4/24)

Things I'll be looking out for:

Bold Predictions

Everyone loves a good bold prediction. Our crew recently shared some of their favorites…

Via Thor: The Browns will draft Hunter at No. 2 overall, and either Sanders or Jalen Milroe with their second draft pick.

Via Gene: Three running backs will get drafted in Round 1

Via Freedman: No more than two quarterbacks will go in Round 1

Here's mine, which kind of piggybacks on Gene's: TreVeyon Henderson is the second RB off the board and flips Omarion Hampton.

Best Bets

The Draft betting market is constantly shifting as a steady stream of news, rumors, and mock drafts shake up odds.

You can keep up-to-date with our staff's favorite bets thanks to our free bet tracker:

Make sure you bookmark the tracker because the bets will be flowing this week as sportsbooks post more and more draft specials.

Freedman also expanded on some of his favorites in this piece on April 16, including bets for Colston Loveland and Emeka Egbuka. 

My current favorite bets right now?

  • Henderson second running back selected (+220) 
  • Texans’ first drafted player is a WR (+400)
  • Milroe drafted in first round (+170)

Positional Rankings

Interesting rankings:

  • Thor is holding strong with Shedeur Sanders ranked over Cam Ward. A "Poor Man's Tua" has been a popular comp for Sanders by others, but Thor sees Baker Mayfield upside in his game. We are about to find out where the NFL stands …
  • Thor has Kaleb Johnson ranked over Henderson, another contrarian stand relative to the market. If we add a dock for homerism, then I think we can comfortably place Henderson at No. 3, though (😊). 
  • The Kyle Williams steam has been wild. Thor has now included him in his Top 12. 

The Sicko Big Board: Thor 500

257 players will get drafted in the 2025 NFL Draft, but Thor said, "Hold my Bud Light ... because I have a 500-player big board for the masses."

The Thor 500 (which sounds like it could be the name of a new line of flame throwers or something) is truly one of the sickest things I've ever seen. A 500-player Big Board with individual player comps for every single player. 

It starts out with a bang…

And finishes with…teaching you new names:

It's such a depraved exercise that I'm still not entirely convinced he didn't make up some of these names. DJ Uiagalelei?!

The Rookie Super Model Reaches Its Final Form

Currently, the Rookie Super Model is using projected draft capital to generate its scores for each prospect.

After the NFL Draft, Dwain will update with the actual draft capital, which will shake up the values for a good chunk of these players. 

My prediction? I think Cam Skattebo is going to enter the Top 5 for Rookie RB Super Model Rating in this class after he gets Round 2 capital …

Know Your History

Bad teams stay bad. How does that saying go? You need to study history so you don't make the same mistakes? Well, Chris Allen looked at a decade's worth of draft data to conclude which teams have proven to be the worst at drafting.

The biggest NFL Draft rumors of the last 15 years. Remember when Lamar Jackson wasn't considered a real QB or that Jimmy Clausen was going to be a Top 5 pick? Jonathan Fuller took a stroll down memory lane.

2025 Draft Myths. Ian took a stab at debunking some popular myths in this 2025 draft class. The Jeanty haters are in shambles.
