Terry McLaurin is a potential fantasy football bust and overvalued draft pick for 2025. Read the fantasy football outlook and draft advice for the Washington Commanders wide receiver.
RotoBaller Ranking (half-PPR): WR17
Fantasy Draft Analysis:
Terry McLaurin turned in a career year in 2025, finally reaping the rewards of elite quarterback play from Jayden Daniels after years of dealing with underwhelming signal-callers. But if you dive deeper into his season, you realize that touchdowns mostly drove it. Just look at McLaurin's production:
- 2019: 65.5 YDS/G, 7 TD
- 2020: 74.5 YDS/G, 4 TD
- 2021: 61.9 YDS/G, 5 TD
- 2022: 70.1 YDS/G, 5 TD
- 2023: 58.9 YDS/G, 4 TD
- 2024: 64.5 YDS/G, 13 TD
Spot the outlier -- McLaurin almost doubled his previous career-high in touchdowns, which allowed him to finish as WR15 in half-PPR PPG.
But even with that finish, why should he be once again going as WR15? That's essentially being drafted at his ceiling.
Jayden Daniels to Terry McLaurin never gets old 🤩

Add in the fact that the Commanders added Deebo Samuel Sr. to take away some targets, and you can see why McLaurin is a bit overpriced here. That's not to say he can't be a productive player, but there's not much room for profit at current cost.
