We've done several mock drafts already this offseason, but this was the first time I picked from the last spot in Round 1. And I liked how my team turned out.
This was a 12-team, PPR mock draft featuring members of our CBS Sports staff, as well as Fantasy Football Today podcast listeners Todd Rones and Erik Guenther, and our FFT Facebook moderator Rob Thomas. I encourage you to check out all the results below to see how each team looked.
As for my team, I started with James Cook and Justin Jefferson, and I was thrilled with this pairing. Cook has top-five upside at his position, and Jefferson should rebound with Kyler Murray now the likely starting quarterback in Minnesota.
This is a three-receiver league, so it worked out well that Zay Flowers and Tetairoa McMillan were available at my next turn in Rounds 3 and 4. I expect Flowers to have a breakout campaign this year, and McMillan should be a solid No. 2 Fantasy receiver in his sophomore season.
I wasn't planning to take a quarterback and tight end with my next two picks, but Lamar Jackson was available in Round 5, as well as Tyler Warren in Round 6. Jackson is my No. 2 quarterback this season, and I get the benefit of stacking him with Flowers. And Warren is my No. 4 tight end, so this could be a steal with him at this spot.
At this point, I was a little concerned about my No. 2 running back, but I was pleased to get Chuba Hubbard in Round 7. While I'm excited to see what Jonathon Brooks can do in his comeback from his second ACL tear, I still expect Hubbard to have a solid season and be a potential No. 2 Fantasy running back this year.
I also got Rhamondre Stevenson in Round 8, and I expect Stevenson to once again be the best running back for the Patriots in 2026, much like he was in 2025. Now, my running back corps felt more secure, and my starting lineup is in great shape.
The focus of my bench was mostly at running back, and I liked ending up with J.K. Dobbins in Round 9, Isiah Pacheco in Round 12, Tyler Allgeier in Round 13 and George Holani in Round 14. Dobbins should be the No. 1 running back in Denver as long as he's healthy, and Pacheco and Allgeier are solid handcuffs with touchdown upside.
As for Holani, he should be the No. 2 running back in Seattle to open the season behind Jadarian Price. Holani should hold onto that role until Zach Charbonnet (knee) is healthy, and Holani might surprise Fantasy managers if the Seahawks give him enough work in tandem with Price early in the year.
My two bench receivers are Michael Pittman (Round 10) and Tre Tucker (Round 11), and both should have prominent roles this season. Pittman might end up being the No. 1 target in Pittsburgh over DK Metcalf, and Tucker could be the No. 1 receiver for the Raiders. Both are solid reserves, especially where I drafted them.
As a reference point for this mock draft, all touchdowns are worth six points, and we award one point for every 10 yards rushing and receiving and one point for every 25 yards passing. We also award one point for every reception. We feature a starting lineup of QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, TE and FLEX (RB/WR/TE) with six reserves for a 14-round draft.
