NFL Draft Rounds 2 & 3 Fantasy Football Winners and Losers
Rounds 2 and 3 of the 2025 NFL Draft saw plenty of fantasy-relevant players join their first NFL teams, with some boasting the possibility of immediate production and others landing in rough spots to emerge in 2025. With the new crop of athletes heading to their first NFL jobs, we also see some veterans come out winning due to a lack of investment in rookies at their positions, or losing due to these young additions.
Keep in mind that the home run, slam dunk, and whatever other sports phrase we want to use picks happened on Thursday night, so assessing the fantasy value of the selections from the next two rounds is even more difficult to pinpoint. Some of these guys may become major fantasy players, while others won’t crack a starting lineup in 2025.
In the coming days and weeks, the 4for4 staff will have in-depth player profiles on every relevant rookie’s redraft stock, but for now, here’s my stab at the biggest fantasy winners and losers from Rounds 2 and 3.

Round 2 & 3 Winners
RJ Harvey, RB (DEN)
The Broncos drafted an RB as expected, and RJ Harvey is a Sean Payton special. He’s highly explosive and was productive at UCF, averaging 153.7 combined yards per contest and 25 total touchdowns. He’s on the smaller side at 5’8”, but Harvey landed on a team with a wide-open depth chart at RB where he can win the lead back role, or at least become the 1A.
Payton has had success with smaller-framed backs in the past, like Darren Sproles, and likes to use his RBs in the passing game a la Alvin Kamara. RB2 territory seems right for Harvey in 2025, and he’s a solid value currently on both Drafters and Underdog, leaving boards as the WR49 and WR47, respectively.
