Who should I draft for fantasy football in 2025? Fantasy football outlooks for TreVeyon Henderson, RJ Harvey, Kaleb Johnson, and our expert draft advice.
TreVeyon Henderson 2025 Fantasy Outlook
RJ Harvey 2025 Fantasy Outlook
RJ Harvey's numbers in his last two years at UCF don't even seem real. 3,498 yards from scrimmage and 42 touchdowns. Harvey averaged a breakaway percentage of 49.6 and forced 181 missed tackles throughout his collegiate career.

Broncos HC Sean Payton seems pretty confident about Harvey's ability, calling him "very coachable" and a "willing learner". Payton also hinted at switching things up this year, as he promised fans would see "a markedly different running game."
However, trusting Payton is not easy. Throughout his 17 years as an OC and HC in the NFL, only four rookie RBs (2000 Ron Dayne, 2006 Reggie Bush, 2010 Chris Ivory, and 2017 Alvin Kamara) have recorded over 100.0 PPR points, with Bush and Kamara being the only ones with over 110.0 PPR points and 1,000 yards from scrimmage.
Also, the competition will be brutal. J.K. Dobbins is looking to earn a long-term deal following his signing with the Broncos, while young RBs Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estime are hungry to establish themselves. The odds are against Harvey in 2025.
Kaleb Johnson 2025 Fantasy Outlook
Kaleb Johnson is another talented young RB with the odds against him in 2025. Johnson broke out in his junior season at Iowa, rushing for 1,537 yards and 21 touchdowns. That season caused him to be taken in the third round of a loaded RB class despite a relative lack of production in his first two seasons.
Per Steelers insider @rayfitt1: "There's no way the Steelers are going to trust Kaleb Johnson to pass protect or catch the ball out of the backfield." 😳

When the Steelers took him with the 83rd pick, they expected him to become their next great RB and everything that Najee Harris wasn't. Unfortunately, things haven't panned out that way for Johnson so far in his young NFL career.
Speaking on WDVE Radio, ESPN's Brooke Pryor said Johnson reminded her of Harris, which is not what you want to hear if you're a Steelers fan. "You wanna be durable and explosive, and I haven’t seen that yet from Kaleb Johnson," Pryor said.
Additionally, Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo claimed, "There's no way the Steelers are going to trust Kaleb Johnson to pass protect or catch the ball out of the backfield."
Johnson has the talent to turn things around, but on a win-now Pittsburgh team with Mike Tomlin as the HC, he won't steal many touches from Jaylen Warren and will have to compete with Kenneth Gainwell.
Who Should I Draft in Fantasy Football?
RJ Harvey and Kaleb Johnson are very talented RBs who can easily have long and successful careers in the NFL, but they're not in an ideal situation right now. Harvey has too much competition, while Johnson is struggling to stand out.
Henderson is the clear choice here. Although he won't get as many touches as the other elite rookie RBs like Ashton Jeanty and Omarion Hampton, he is the next best choice and is set to split touches with Rhamondre Stevenson on a rebuilt Patriots offense.
If you can't get your hands on Henderson, it's honestly a toss-up between Harvey and Johnson. I would probably lean slightly towards Harvey, as J.K. Dobbins is a very injury-prone player compared to Jaylen Warren.
Verdict: Draft Henderson.
