We updated our expert consensus rankings on Monday.

As a reminder, these are aggregate rankings from 6 major dynasty sources (Draft Sharks, Dynasty Daddy, Fantasy Calc, Fantasy Pros, KTC, PFN).

IT’S BEEN ONE MONTH since we started doing these rankings. Here are some of the biggest risers and fallers from March to April:

📈 Risers:

  • +31 📈 Omarion Hampton (76 ➡️ 45)

  • +26 📈 Matthew Golden (118 ➡️ 92)

  • +37 📈 Jaxson Dart (142 ➡️ 105)

    • I didn’t set out to make this section all about rookies, but he jumped off the page. Most reports about Dart have been closing the gap between him and Ward/Sanders. Landing spot is crucial for his value.

  • +41 📈 Aaron Jones (159 ➡️ 118)

    • Re-signing with MIN was a big driver of this move. And even with the addition of Jordan Mason and reports about limiting his touches, experts don’t seem too concerned. He’s been great with limited work in the past.

  • +22 📈 Aaron Rodgers (188 ➡️ 166)

    • This one was a bit surprising to me given he doesn’t have a new home yet. I wonder if his price will go up more if he signs with PIT, or if that is already priced in.

📉 Fallers:

  • -8 📉 Puka Nacua (11 ➡️ 20)

    • Not a big drop in total, but noteworthy since that pushes him from the 1st round to late 2nd in startups. Likely because of the addition of Davante Adams.

  • -10 📉 C.J. Stroud (14 ➡️ 24)

    • I guess the experts were hoping for a little more firepower than Christian Kirk.

  • -36 📉 Christian McCaffrey (44 ➡️ 80)

    • There isn’t a player with more risk/reward than CMC. By the end of next year, he could lead the league in fantasy points or be worthless.

  • -23 📉 Travis Etienne (94 ➡️ 117)

    • The price on Etienne might be at an all-time low. Everyone expects Bigsby to get more work. He’s got a new HC in Liam Coen. Could be a potential buy depending on how cheap you can get him.

  • -41 📉 Isiah Pacheco (86 ➡️ 127)

    • He didn’t look great after returning from injury last season. The team resigned Kareem Hunt and added Elijah Mitchell. And the NFL draft hasn’t even happened yet, with a deep RB class.

Check out the fully updated rankings below:

Note: Best viewed on desktop (we’re working on a version optimized for mobile)

  • Lawrence has failed to meet expectations through four NFL seasons, never throwing more than 25 TD passes in a season

  • Jacksonville hired former Buccaneers offensive coordinator Liam Coen as head coach, who helped Baker Mayfield achieve career highs of 4,500 yards and 41 TDs in 2024

  • Time running out for Lawrence to avoid 'bust' label, but 2025 could be career year with best play-caller of his career

  • Hampton showcased elite production at UNC with back-to-back seasons of 1,500+ rushing yards and 15+ TDs, joining an exclusive ACC club with Lamar Jackson, Dalvin Cook, and Travis Etienne

  • The UNC running back posted impressive receiving numbers in 2024, accounting for 13% of team receiving yards and 16% of receptions, exceeding key analytical thresholds for NFL success

  • At the NFL Combine, Hampton measured 6'0", 221 pounds and posted strong numbers with a 4.46 40-yard dash, 38" vertical jump, and 10'10" broad jump, earning a 9.78 RAS score

  • Hampton demonstrated significant ability to create yards after contact, ranking sixth among FBS backs with 150+ carries with 4.35 yards after contact per attempt

  • Currently projected as a first-round pick with an expected draft position of 24.0, Hampton is considered a strong prospect who would likely be the consensus RB1 in most draft classes that didn't include Ashton Jeanty

  • Analysts project Hampton could achieve RB1 status immediately in redraft formats, particularly if drafted by teams like Denver, Chicago, Pittsburgh, or Los Angeles

  • Johnson impressed during Senior Bowl practices, particularly excelling in one-on-one drills that showcase his quickness and separation ability

  • At approximately 165 pounds, Johnson struggles with contested catches and breaking tackles

  • Analysts project Johnson will make an NFL roster but compare him more to Tutu Atwell than Xavier Worthy in terms of potential impact

  • Hill had an abysmal 2024 season, struggling even when his starting quarterback was healthy

  • At 31 years old, concerns are growing about Hill's extreme explosiveness fading, which has historically masked other issues in his game

  • The article suggests trading Hill now rather than waiting, citing concerns about his productivity in 2025 and especially 2026

  • Gesicki finished as TE13 in his first season with the Bengals, his best finish since being TE9 in 2021

  • Recently signed a three-year/$25.5M extension with the Bengals, securing his role in their high-powered offense

  • Currently valued as TE26 in dynasty formats despite being locked into a starting role in a pass-heavy offense with significant upside
