A 24-Pick PPR Mock Draft Built From Current ADP
This two-round mock follows current prices while using last season’s scoring to settle close calls.
Bobby's AI Desk·written from our own draft-market and 2025 production data·how this works
Takeaways
- → Use ADP to anticipate availability, not to outsource every selection.
- → Break close calls with 2025 per-game scoring and sample size.
- → Discount prices that run well ahead of last season’s production.
In this piece
This is one plausible board for the first two rounds of a 12-team PPR draft, not a prediction. ADP, or average draft position, shows where a player typically goes across drafts; the Draft Kit provides the market baseline used here.
Round 1: Follow the board, then break ties
1.01 Jahmyr Gibbs — His 1.01 ADP and 21.6 PPR points per game last season lead off. Alternative: Bijan Robinson (1.02).
1.02 Bijan Robinson — He scored 21.8 per game in 2025. Alternative: Puka Nacua (1.03).
1.03 Puka Nacua — His 23.4 per game led the listed wide receivers. Alternative: Ja’Marr Chase (1.04).
1.04 Ja’Marr Chase — A 19.6-point 2025 average supports the market price. Alternative: Christian McCaffrey (1.05).
1.05 Christian McCaffrey — His 24.5 per game ranked first among listed running backs. Alternative: Jaxon Smith-Njigba (1.06).
1.06 Jaxon Smith-Njigba — He delivered 21.2 per game across 17 games. Alternative: Amon-Ra St. Brown (1.07).
1.07 Amon-Ra St. Brown — His 19.1 per game breaks the tie at 1.07 ADP. Alternative: Jonathan Taylor (1.07).
1.08 Jonathan Taylor — Last season’s 21.3 per game keeps him near the turn. Alternative: De’Von Achane (1.10).
1.09 De’Von Achane — He averaged 20.2 over 16 games. Alternative: CeeDee Lamb (1.10).
1.10 CeeDee Lamb — The market holds him here after 15.5 per game in 2025. Alternative: James Cook III (1.12).
1.11 James Cook III — His 17.8 per game gets the nod. Alternative: Justin Jefferson (1.12).
1.12 Justin Jefferson — This follows his 1.12 ADP, despite 11.9 per game last season. Alternative: Chase Brown (2.01).
Round 2: Production creates the separations
2.01 Chase Brown — He averaged 16.6 across 17 games. Alternative: Drake London (2.01).
2.02 Drake London — His 16.8 per game edges the next running back. Alternative: Derrick Henry (2.04).
2.03 Derrick Henry — A 16.4-point average over 17 games supports the selection. Alternative: A.J. Brown (2.05).
2.04 A.J. Brown — He produced 14.7 per game last season. Alternative: Rashee Rice (2.05).
2.05 Rashee Rice — His 18.8 per game came across 8 games. Alternative: Saquon Barkley (2.06).
2.06 Saquon Barkley — His market price matches 2.06 ADP after 14.5 per game. Alternative: Nico Collins (2.08).
2.07 Nico Collins — He averaged 15.1 over 15 games. Alternative: Chris Olave (2.08).
2.08 Chris Olave — His 16.7 per game wins this close call. Alternative: George Pickens (2.09).
2.09 George Pickens — He posted 17.2 per game across 17 games. Alternative: Ashton Jeanty (2.09).
2.10 Ashton Jeanty — His 14.4 per game beats the next same-price back. Alternative: Kenneth Walker (2.09).
2.11 Kenneth Walker — The 2.09 ADP keeps him in Round 2 despite 11.3 per game. Alternative: Omarion Hampton (2.10).
2.12 Omarion Hampton — He averaged 15.1 across 9 games. Alternative: Zay Flowers (3.01).
Price versus last season
Value means getting production at a lower draft cost. Jefferson’s 2026 price is 16 picks earlier than his 2025 production supports, while Walker’s is 15 picks earlier. That comparison is about this year’s price versus last season’s output, not where either player could have been drafted in 2025. Check evolving workload data in the Usage Report.
Weekly volatility matters
Boom/bust describes how widely weekly scores swing. London topped 20 points in 33% of his 2025 games but finished below 8 in 25%; A.J. Brown posted 27% in both categories. Use the Anytime TD Board for weekly scoring context after drafting.
How to use this: Treat ADP as a map, not a command. Let last season’s scoring settle close calls, and move players down when their 2026 cost asks you to ignore a clear production gap.
