While we focus exclusively on dynasty fantasy football here at DLF, redraft fantasy can be a variable to help us build our teams. While dynasty rankings balance winning this season with winning in the future, redraft rankings focus exclusively on winning in 2025. In this article, we’ll try to highlight the players who are going higher and lower in redraft superflex drafts, and how that will help you in your superflex rookie drafts. A note on process and methodology here. This article will compare the DLF superflex rookie rankings versus the superflex redraft rankings over at Fantasy Pros. In the FP rankings, we’re most interested in finding the rookies who are going to have an impact right away. These drafters are trying to win this season, and don’t care about 2026 and beyond. As dynasty drafters, we can use this to help us highlight players who are better “win now” picks and players who will require more patience. It also helps us to highlight players who should see their dynasty ADP rise over the course of the 2025 season. Picking players whose value grows in year one is a foolproof way to be a successful dynasty manager. I compared the logarithmic difference between the DLF ranking and the FP ranking, because as the rankings get lower, a slight difference in rankings becomes less and less significant. With that being said, the higher numbers in the %Dif column are better “win now” picks (highlighted in green) and the lower numbers are picks that will require more patience (highlighted in red). With all that said, let’s dig into the top 48 rookies round-by-round to mimic a four-round, 12-team draft. Round One Round DLF Rank POS Rank Player POS FP Rank FP Rook Rank %Dif 1 1 1 Jeremiyah Love RB 52 1 0.0% 1 2 1 Jordyn Tyson WR 88 4 -66.67% 1 3 1 Fernando Mendoza QB 94 3 0.0% 1 4 2 Carnell Tate WR 88 2 66.67% 1 5 3 Makai Lemon WR 105 6 -18.18% 1 6 4 KC Concepcion WR 141 7 -15.38% 1 7 2 Jadarian Price RB 99 5 33.33% 1 8 5 Omar Cooper Jr .

It is worth noting, however, his overall rank of 52nd at FantasyPros speaks to relatively modest expectations in year one. Something in line with Ashton Jeanty ’s rookie season could be on tap; Jeanty had solid enough counting stats, though he never really moved the needle from a fantasy standpoint due to a poor supporting cast.
