Joey Pollizze's 5 early-round fantasy football wide receiver draft targets for 2025. His must-draft wide receivers include Nico Collins, Drake London, George Pickens and more.

The Jags offense should be far more productive under new HC Liam Coen — another member of the Sean McVay coaching tree. Brian Thomas Jr. showed out in his rookie campaign with 87 receptions for 1,282 yards and 10 TDs. It's up in Year 2.

C.J. Stroud is essential to the Houston Texans success, and weapons like veteran wide receiver Christian Kirk will help maximize him.

DE Will Anderson Jr. was the next Texan to be unveiled at No. 46, making his debut on the list for the first time in his young career. In 2024, he had a career-high amount of sacks, totalling 4 more than his previous high, and proved himself as one of the most impactful players on the Texans' defense.

Following an impressive first year with the Houston Texans, veteran defensive end Danielle Hunter surged up the NFL's Top 100 Players of 2025 list.

Nico Collins missed time last year, but could he break out to a star level as a fantasy football producer in 2025?

On the flip side, the Lions ' wide receivers will also be tested. Stingley and Lassiter are both intriguing young cornerbacks, with Stingley recently cashing in on a new contract. Both will provide a strong matchup for Detroit's talented crop of wideouts.

Collins will join quarterback C.J. Stroud and the majority of Houston's starters in suiting up for Saturday's preseason game against the Panthers, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Daniel Dopp calls Nico Collins the "alpha wide receiver" for the Texans, which makes him a solid WR1 for fantasy managers.
