Fantasy Football Mock Draft: Young Running Backs Rising
As OTAs progress toward training camp, we continue to gear up for peak drafting season. Which young runners went in the early rounds of our 12-team mock?

Round 11

Pick Team Selection Position
121 Blair Ames Tyler Lockett WR58
122 Abe Schwadron Bilal Powell RB49
123 Akash Bhatia DeSean Jackson WR59
124 Joseph Redemann David Njoku TE10
125 Dale Redman Trey Burton TE11
126 Brandon Gdula Kenny Golladay WR60
127 JJ Zachariason Peyton Barber RB50
128 Austan Kas Ted Ginn Jr. WR61
129 Anthony Amico Cameron Meredith WR62
130 Drew Crawford Mike Williams WR63
131 Jim Sannes Kalen Ballage RB51
132 Justin Freeman Drew Brees QB7


Best Pick: Kenny Golladay

Despite seeing just 48 targets (thanks, in part, to injury), Kenny Golladay was one of the most efficient wideouts in the league last season, according to our Net Expected Points (NEP) metric.

The talented second-year receiver is expected to see his role grow after the Lions shipped perennial underachiever Eric Ebron to Indy, opening up 86 available targets. Golladay still has to compete with slot weapon Golden Tate and 2017 breakout Marvin Jones for opportunities, but with an expanded role and a load of talent, he has a chance to destroy his 11th round draft slot.
