Fantasy Football Mock Draft 2021: Round 12

  • Team 12 (12.01): Xavier Jones, RB, LAR
  • Team 11 (12.02): Latavius Murray, RB, NO
  • Team 10 (12.03): Rashaad Penny, RB, SEA
  • Team 9 (12.04): Bryan Edwards, WR, LVR
  • Team 8 (12.05): Washington D/ST
  • Team 7 (12.06): Baltimore D/ST
  • Team 6 (12.07): Indianapolis D/ST
  • Team 5* (12.08): Michael Gallup, WR, DAL
  • Team 4 (12.09): Matt Ryan, QB, ATL

  • Team 2 (12.11): Marquise Brown, WR, BAL
  • Team 1 (12.12): Justin Fields, QB, CHI

Michael Gallup is the forgotten member of the Cowboys wide receiver group, though it’s not hard to see why with the long-term consistency of Amari Cooper and the immense breakout potential of CeeDee Lamb in year two. But don’t discount what Gallup is capable of when he’ has a healthy Dak Prescott.

Not only did Gallup have a 1,000-yard season in 2019 but his 16-game pace in games where Dak played last season was for 54 catches and 1,114 yards. The upside is massive for a player going in the 12th round and he’s the exact type of flier you should be taking at this point.

Fantasy Football Mock Draft 2021: Round 13

  • Team 1 (13.01): Trey Lance, QB, SF
  • Team 2 (13.02): Evan Engram, TE, NYG
  • Team 3 (13.03): Chuba Hubbard, RB, CAR
  • Team 4 (13.04): Sony Michel, RB, LAR
  • Team 5* (13.05): Rhamondre Stevenson, RB, NE
  • Team 6 (13.06): Tevin Coleman, RB, NYJ
  • Team 7 (13.07): Baker Mayfield, QB, CLE
  • Team 8 (13.08): James White, RB, NE
  • Team 9 (13.09): Darrel Williams, RB, KC
  • Team 10 (13.10): San Francisco D/ST
  • Team 11 (13.11): Cleveland D/ST
  • Team 12 (13.12): Ben Roethlisberger, QB, PIT

One more running back flier to complete the roster before we get into the final two rounds, Rhamondre Stevenson has been one of the best players of the preseason thus far. The rookie out of Oklahoma has been a dominant force for the Patriots, a team that infamously likes to spread the ball around to their running backs.

It figures that Damien Harris will start the year as the lead back in New England but he’s not proven he can do that for a full season. With what Stevenson has shown, he at least has a path to jumping into that role and getting a lot of work in an offense that can produce quality running backs in fantasy if someone gets the consistent workload.
