The 2025 NFL season is here, and with it comes the trials and tribulations of fantasy football. With the football calendar heating up, our rankings team has compiled its complete rankings to help you make informed decisions.
Top Players to Target or Avoid in PFSN’s 2025 Redraft Fantasy Football WR Rankings
Jalen Coker, Carolina Panthers
A popular late-round dart throw in August, Jalen Coker's season got off to a false start after a quad injury derailed his first six weeks. It's been a slow ramp-up, but the former UDFA is starting to get going a bit.
Coker has now caught at least three passes in four straight games. It's not much, but he's undoubtedly the second-best wide receiver on the Carolina Panthers behind Tetairoa McMillan.
Against a very good Los Angeles Rams defense, Coker caught four passes for a team-high 74 yards and his first touchdown of the season.
The bad news is the Panthers are on bye next week. So Coker cannot try to build on his season-best performance. But if you have the ability to hold him, Coker is not a bad pickup.
Adonai Mitchell, New York Jets
Since joining the Jets, Adonai Mitchell's role has gradually increased each week. He hit his apex against the Falcons on Sunday, catching eight of 12 targets for 102 yards and a touchdown.
Garrett Wilson is set to miss at least one more week. It still seems more likely than not that Wilson doesn't play again this season. If that's the case, Mitchell sure looks like the best receiver on the team right now.
Tyrod Taylor is much more capable of getting the ball to his receivers than Justin Fields. As long as he remains the starter, which is the expectation for the remainder of the season, Mitchell may very well be a weekly WR3. He is this week's top add.

FAQ
What Is PPR in Fantasy Football?
PPR stands for “point per reception.” It means exactly what it says. PPR dictates how much a reception is worth in fantasy football.
What Is the Difference Between PPR and Non-PPR?
There is a very stark contrast between PPR scoring and non-PPR scoring. In non-PPR, receptions don’t matter … at all. The only relevance receptions have is how they relate to the yards a player attains on those receptions.
One of the primary criticisms of PPR scoring is that it rewards unproductive plays. If a running back carries the ball 15 times for 90 yards, that’s a really efficient performance. Yet, a wide receiver racking up an inefficient seven catches for 40 yards is going to outscore that running back by 2.0 PPR fantasy points.
