Shawn Siegele updates his 2025 dynasty superflex rookie rankings after 60 frantic hours of drafting in the FFPC. He discusses what these high-stakes leagues can teach us about all dynasty rookie drafts this spring and summer.
Beginning Saturday morning I’ve spent almost every waking moment living and breathing fantasy rookie drafts. With nine FFPC squads and seven different co-managers, I got to talk a lot of football with some of the smartest folks in the industry. With a lot of picks, we had the opportunity to make a lot of moves.
In follow-up articles, I’ll go through the blockbuster trades, break down the picks by team, and discuss the post-draft player portfolio, but I wanted to start today with another rankings update and discussion.
Nothing crystallizes your actual player stands like being forced into many decisions over a short period of time with your own teams. It’s a lot of money on the line and a whirlwind of potential titles. After all, you can’t buy glory.
So what did I learn? That’s our exercise today, and it builds off of the research and rankings work throughout the offseason.

In the interests of archiving the research and the rankings evolution, I wanted to preserve the quick blurbs that are taken from longer pieces in both the Rookie Guide and the pre-draft rankings. That information is in normal text.
I also wanted to preserve the post-draft discussion. Those thoughts are in blue.
The new, updated discussion is in italics. Hopefully that’s not a mistake. I thought it was better than adding a new color.
You’ll get the new ranking, the prior ranking, and ADP from our FFPC Dynasty ADP tool. Risers are labeled in green, fallers in red, and everyone else stays in the neutral black. (The color-coded changes are just since the last update, not the draft.)
There’s quite a bit of discussion from the 1.06 on. Let’s jump in.
