Veteran RB Aaron Jones Emerges as Surprise 2025 Fantasy Football Sleeper
29 Aug
Summary
- Christian McCaffrey, Tyreek Hill struggled in 2024, may not go as high in 2025 drafts
- Deebo Samuel traded to Commanders, could bounce back with Jayden Daniels
- Vikings RB Aaron Jones ranked RB16 despite finishing 2024 as RB15
As the 2025 fantasy football season approaches, the focus is on which top players from 2024 will bounce back and which will continue to struggle. Superstars like Christian McCaffrey, Tyreek Hill, and Deebo Samuel all failed to live up to expectations last year, leaving fantasy managers disappointed.
However, the 2025 outlook may be different. McCaffrey and Hill are still expected to be high picks, but they likely won't go as early as they did in 2024. This could open the door for them to become sleeper picks. Meanwhile, Samuel was traded from the 49ers to the Commanders, and the move to team up with quarterback Jayden Daniels could be the perfect opportunity for a bounce-back season.
One player who is already being identified as a 2025 sleeper is Vikings running back Aaron Jones. Despite finishing as RB15 last season, Jones is currently being drafted as the 25th running back off the board on average. With the potential for a larger role in Minnesota's offense, Jones could provide excellent value for fantasy managers willing to take a chance on him.
