It’s never too early to prepare for your fantasy football draft, and that’s exactly what we’re here to do. Using the DraftHero Mock Draft Simulator from 4for4, I ran a 12-team full PPR mock draft to get a feel for current player values and early trends as we look ahead to the 2025 fantasy season.
This mock followed standard ESPN roster settings: 1 quarterback, 2 running backs, 3 wide receivers, 1 tight end, 1 FLEX, 1 defense, 1 kicker, and 6 bench spots. With full PPR scoring in place, the focus shifts to volume—receptions and target share take center stage, especially at WR and pass-catching RB.
Below, we’ll walk through the mock round-by-round, spotlighting the biggest reaches and falls, and break down some of the most actionable takeaways.

Fantasy Football PPR Mock Draft: Rounds 1–4
Biggest Reach: Tyreek Hill, WR, Dolphins (Round 3, Pick 4)Tyreek Hill played all 17 games in 2024 but failed to hit the 1,000-yard mark for the first time since his rookie season. A lingering wrist injury may have played a role in his inefficiency, though offseason surgery has him trending toward full health by camp. Reception Perception’s Matt Harmon noted a concerning dip in Hill’s performance, especially against man coverage. Now entering his age-31 season, drafters should proceed with caution. The upside remains sky-high, but the floor has never been shakier.
Biggest Fall: Drake London, WR, Falcons (Round 2, Pick 12)London delivered a breakout campaign in 2024, finishing as the WR9 on the strength of a sky-high target rate from rookie QB Michael Penix. He commanded a 39.1% target share during their time together and ranked 12th in yards per route run. While his after-the-catch ability remains limited, London’s route-running and connection with Penix point to sustained WR1 production.
Fantasy Football PPR Mock Draft: Rounds 5–8
Key Takeaway: Quarterbacks Are Going Fast—Plan AheadBy the end of Round 8, nearly every fantasy manager had locked in a starting quarterback. Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson even came off the board in Round 2. In full PPR formats, it may be smarter to wait and build out wide receiver and running back depth while others chase positional runs.
Fantasy Football PPR Mock Draft: Rounds 9–11
Biggest Reach: Cam Skattebo, RB, Giants (Round 9, Pick 5)Skattebo brings versatility and production to the table, with over 2,000 scrimmage yards in his final college season. He’s been praised for his receiving skills and may challenge for third-down work early. But with rookie Tyrone Tracy currently leading the depth chart and Skattebo battling a hamstring issue, his role could be limited out of the gate. While the upside is real in PPR leagues—especially if Tracy falters—it’s possible Skattebo was drafted too early given the uncertainty around his workload.
Fantasy Football PPR Mock Draft: Rounds 12–14
Key Takeaway: Wait on Defense and Kicker PicksNo need to jump the gun on DSTs or kickers. Value options like the Packers, Chargers, Eagles, and Lions offer solid early-season streaming potential. At kicker, prioritize efficiency and offensive consistency over big-name appeal.
Biggest Fall: Woody Marks, RB, Texans (Round 14, Pick 10)With Joe Mixon sidelined and uncertainty around Nick Chubb’s return, Marks has become a name to watch in the Houston backfield. The rookie boasts strong receiving credentials and could force his way into a rotation alongside Dameon Pierce. While Tyrone Tracy and Chubb complicate things, Marks is an ideal late-round flyer in PPR formats if the backfield pecking order remains fluid.goes down, Charbonnet’s a plug-and-play RB1.

PPR Mock Draft FAQs
What is PPR scoring?PPR stands for “point per reception.” Players earn one full point for each catch they make, in addition to yardage and touchdown bonuses. This format dramatically increases the value of high-volume receivers and pass-catching running backs.
How is PPR different from Half PPR or Standard scoring?Standard scoring ignores receptions entirely. Half PPR awards 0.5 points per catch, and PPR doubles that value. This makes targets matter more than pure yardage—slot receivers, pass-catching backs, and possession tight ends all get a boost.
What’s the best draft strategy for PPR formats?Many successful PPR drafters prioritize wide receivers early. It’s easier to find late-round RBs with pass-catching roles than it is to find 150-target WRs in the middle rounds. Balanced builds still work, especially when you can land RBs with receiving chops.
When should I draft a quarterback in PPR leagues?It depends on your risk tolerance and league trends. In this mock, quarterbacks flew off the board between Rounds 2–8. If you want one of the elite options, you’ll need to act early. If you’re fine streaming or waiting for upside, the double-digit rounds still hold value.
