Matthew Berry's Updated Top 50 Overall Rankings for 2025
The Fantasy Football Happy Hour crew discuss which players benefited the most following their team's additions in the 2025 NFL Draft, including Chicago Bears' Caleb Williams and Los Angeles Chargers' Justin Herbert.
Now that the NFL draft is behind us and we have a much clearer picture of the NFL landscape, it's time to update my top 50 overall rankings, which includes four rookies.
While these rankings are obviously adaptable, they are for a 1 QB league with full PPR scoring. And as we get closer to fantasy draft season, these rankings will expand to a top 100 and eventually a top 200.
As always, please let me know what you think of the rankings – what you agree with, what you don't – on social media where I am @MatthewBerryTMR on all forms of social media (X/Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Threads, Bluesky) except the Bleacher Nation Fantasy App where I am merely @MatthewBerry.
Hard to keep it to just 50, and yes, I'm sure you have opinions on who should be on this list, who shouldn't, who is too high and who is too low. Hit me up.

NFL Fans React to Breaking Nick Chubb News originally appeared on Athlon Sports. In the early part of his career, Nick Chubb established himself as one of the most powerful, consistent running backs in the NFL. After rushing for 6,341 yards while scoring 48 rushing touchdowns through his first five seasons of his career, injuries proceeded to take over. Advertisement Chubb, now 29 years old, has missed 24 total games in his past two seasons due to multiple injuries. Since 2023, Chubb has missed time due to a torn ACL, MCL, and a broken foot. The once dominant Cleveland Browns RB, has reportedly found a new home for the impending NFL season. According to multiple sources, Chubb, pending a physical, will sign with the Houston Texans ahead of the 2025-26 NFL season. Chubb will join Joe Mixon in the backfield, adding to an already talented roster that consists of Nico Collins, Christian Kirk, and Dalton Schultz. The instant the news broke of Chubb's potential new deal, NFL fans rushed to social media to post their reactions. Advertisement "Bro is still dangerous," @SleeperHQ posted on X. Another user on X, is more concerned on the impact this has on Chubb's former team, "Browns are fully cooked." @BetMGM posted a throwback to a dominant touchdown run by Chubb back in 2019. Another user on X appears to think this is a major upgrade to the Texans backfield, giving them a strong one-two punch, "Chubb and Mixon is a nasty duo.

MSU target, 3-star DL Jermaine Polk commits to Rutgers following official visit
MSU target, 3-star DL Jermaine Polk commits to Rutgers following official visit One of the defensive lineman Michigan State is targeting in the 2026 class is off the board and heading to another Big Ten school. Jermaine Polk of Toledo, Ohio announced his commitment to Rutgers on Sunday afternoon. Polk took an official visit to Rutgers this weekend, which ultimately led to the Scarlet Knights sealing the deal with his commitment. Michigan State was one of five schools recently named a finalist for Polk, which didn't include Rutgers. Michigan State, Boston College, Iowa, Iowa State and Wisconsin were the five schools Polk named as his finalists in late May, but an offer from Rutgers this past week quickly changed his recruiting landscape, with the Scarlet Knights working fast to get him on campus and committed. Polk is a three-star prospect and ranks as the No. 73 defensive lineman in 247Sports' rankings for the 2026 class. He holds a recruiting rating of 88 on 247Sports as well. Michigan State landed their own defensive lineman prospect in the 2026 class, with Christopher Knauls Jr. committing to the Spartans following his official visit. So that commitment from Knauls eases the blow of Rutgers beating out Michigan State for Polk.

Where Shedeur Sanders Stands in Browns' QB Depth Chart Today
Where Shedeur Sanders Stands in Browns' QB Depth Chart Today originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Shedeur Sanders may be the fourth quarterback on the Cleveland Browns' depth chart, but he remains one of the most talked-about players in the building. As the Browns continue offseason workouts, the rookie quarterback is quickly learning that the NFL is a different world, especially when you're trying to climb from the bottom of a crowded quarterback room. Advertisement During Wednesday's OTA session, Sanders didn't take any first-team reps, according to ESPN's Daniel Oyefusi. That's not unexpected. Veterans Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett currently headline the depth chart, while third-round pick Dillon Gabriel was drafted two rounds before Sanders and appears to be ahead of him for now. Despite the limited opportunities, Sanders made the most of his reps. Per ESPN Cleveland, he completed 9 of 14 passes in seven-on-seven and 11-on-11 drills, throwing three touchdowns and one interception. The Browns even shared a highlight of one of those scores, a sharp throw to receiver Kaden Davis that drew praise from reporters on site. Joe Reedy of the Associated Press called it 'the best throw of the day.' For most fifth-round quarterbacks, stat-tracking at OTAs would be rare. But Sanders isn't most quarterbacks. Thanks to his college pedigree, high-profile family, and the unexpected drop in the draft, every move he makes will be heavily watched. He's one of the most scrutinized fourth-string quarterbacks in recent memory. Still, his status on the roster comes with real challenges. Sanders is fighting for attention and reps, which are hard to come by when the team has three quarterbacks ahead of you. Without significant snaps in training camp or preseason games, it's difficult to make a case for meaningful regular-season action. Advertisement Offensive coordinator Tommy Rees praised Sanders' preparation and grasp of the offense but also acknowledged that he's still a rookie learning the ropes.'He's really put in a lot of work, as all those guys are,' Rees told the Associated Press. 'You can tell on the mental side, learning the system, calling it, getting into rhythm, he's put a lot of time and effort into that. When you do that, the game slows down and you can focus on completions. He's done a nice job of that as camp's progressed.' Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders, throwing at minicamp.© Jeff Lange / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images Sanders' interception on Wednesday came off a tipped ball into traffic, another sign of the growing pains that come with transitioning to the NFL. His arm strength, vision, and mobility give him long-term upside, but he'll need to show consistency to move up the depth chart. For now, the focus is on development. Sanders isn't expected to start this season, and the Browns aren't rushing his timeline. But that doesn't mean he won't be closely watched. With his talent, work ethic, and media profile, Sanders remains a compelling figure in Cleveland's offseason narrative, even as a fourth-string quarterback. Advertisement If he continues to progress, it's only a matter of time before he forces his way into the conversation.
