Jamaal Williams owns the earliest Breakout Age recorded in the PlayerProfiler database of 17.4 years old. Both a high-volume producer and prolific at an early age, but his athletic measurables severely underwhelm.

If Tim Hightower electrifies your soul, then by all means Jamaal Williams needs to be on all your fantasy rosters come fall.

With great athleticism and quality arm talent, Pat Mahomes the highest upside quarterback in the NFL Draft based on his advanced stats and metrics profile.

Despite attempting a eye-opening 591 passes, Patrick Mahomes remained efficient by finishing with the No. 16 Passing Yards Per Attempt and 84.3 College QBR in his final season at Texas Tech.

While Joe Williams is quantitatively comparable player to Jeremy Langford, Williams is stylistically comparable to Marshawn Lynch. A brief look at the player profiles of the two brings out some interesting comparison points.

The Williams-Lynch similarities extend off the field. Both players are retirees. Like Marshawn Lynch once walked away from the game, Joe Williams also briefly retired from football.

Chris GOD-WIN is rising quickly up NFL Draft boards with exciting fantasy football potential based on his advanced stats & metrics profile.

Chris Godwin was a three-year producer at Penn State, and really took off his sophomore year of college when he exploded for 69 receptions for 1,101 yards and five touchdowns while averaging 16.0 yards per catch.

Given Jeremy McNichols’ rare combination of college dominance and exceptional overall athleticism, he is quantitatively more impressive than Dalvin Cook and rivals Christian McCaffrey.

Still under-appreciated by the NFL’s Scouting Industrial Complex, McNichols may be the best-value running back in the NFL Draft and fantasy football league drafts.

Alvin Kamara has impressive long-term fantasy football upside is impressive, but his advanced stats and metrics profiles suggests a breakout is improbable.

Looking at comparable NFL players, Kamara brings to mind Charcandrick West, although, Kamara holds a greater proclivity for elusiveness than West.

Hailing from Eastern Washington, wide receiver Cooper Kupp is the typical small school guy with atypical hype based on his advanced stats & metrics profile.

Eastern Washington wide receiver Cooper Kupp’s 4-year dominance of the college game is unique in the 2017 NFL Draft Class. Kupp never caught fewer than 93 passes in a single season, never had fewer than 1,431 yards, and his lowest touchdown total in a season was 16.

Featuring premium football talent of yore, Leonard Fournette will deliver workhorse production to the NFL like a lightning bolt from the fantasy gods.

In the PlayerProfiler.com database, there are six running backs who hold claim to a 115-plus Speed Score as well as a greater than 30-percent College Dominator Rating. The “intriguing six” make up quite the elite stable. Their names: Darren McFadden, Derrick Henry, Chris Johnson, Steven Jackson, Adrian Peterson and Leonard Fournette.

O.J. Howard is poised to turn a dominant NFL Scouting Combine into a successful fantasy football career based on his advanced stats and metrics profile.

There’s always a handful of “can’t miss” prospects in every draft, go ahead and consider former Alabama tight end O.J. Howard one of them. If PlayerProfile’s comparison to superstar tight end Greg Olsen isn’t enough for you, then a closer look at his profile is required.

As the dust settles following the Brandin Cooks trade, many other receivers on both New England and New Orleans are affected in a fantasy context. In addition to Cooks, players like Willie Snead, Malcolm Mitchell and Julian Edelman will see drastic changes in fantasy production next season.

I’m afraid this trade marks the end of Julian Edelman’s fantasy glory. In his age-30 season, Edelman was painfully inefficient with a Production Premium, Target Premium and fantasy points per target all ranking outside the top-80 among NFL wide receivers.
