2025 Fantasy Football: Trendsetters Draft Round 2

Round 2

The NFFC Trendsetter’s Draft, now in its 17th season, concluded six rounds by the end of February, with elite fantasy drafters securing their early favorites. This PPR league awards quarterbacks six points per passing touchdown (with a -2 hit for interceptions) and uses a third-round reversal, giving the 14th team the first pick in Round 3.

Round 1 leaned heavily on wide receivers (nine taken) due to the 14-team format and some drafters prioritizing a robust WR corps. As a Draft Champions setup—no waiver wire, BestBall scoring—and with QBs juiced at six points per TD, the top signal-callers vanished in the first half of Round 2. The third-round reversal also shaped strategies, tempting early QB grabs for back-end drafters. Here’s how it went:

15. Josh Allen, BUF
16. Lamar Jackson, BAL
17. Joe Burrow, CIN
18. De’Von Achane, MIA
19. Jayden Daniels, WAS
20. Jalen Hurts, PHI
21. Derrick Henry, BAL

For context, here’s the top QB from last year, adjusted to a four-point TD league for more straightforward rankings:

22. Bucky Irving, TB
23. Brock Bowers, LV
24. Josh Jacobs, GB
25. Trey McBride, ARI
26. Tyreek Hill, MIA
27. Drake London, ATL
28. Breece Hall, NYJ
