12-Team PPR Dynasty Football Mock Draft from 6th Position | Jahmyr Gibbs and Omarion Hampton Lead Off a Stacked Roster

It's time for my seventh fantasy football mock draft of the season. This time, we'll do another dynasty mock draft on FantasyPros. Here was the first dynasty mock I did.

This 12-team PPR setup will have the following roster: one quarterback, two running backs, three wide receivers, one tight end and one flex, with an eight-man bench.

Round 1 - Jahmyr Gibbs

I really didn't expect Gibbs to be available at pick six, but I'm thrilled that it happened.

Gibbs is a fantasy stud, and that should remain the case for several more seasons yet. He's only 23 years old, and because he's splitting the backfield so far, I think his long-term value will remain strong. Him not being a bruising back should allow him to stick in the NFL longer than most backs already.

Round 2 - Omarion Hampton

I usually go wide receiver after taking a running back in the first round, but I couldn't pass on the opportunity to land Hampton. Now I'm intrigued on what my final roster is going to look like.

Hampton is 22 years old and will likely at least split the backfield in his rookie season. It will allow him to get acclimated to the NFL, but I expect him to be a workhorse back for years to come.

It might mean I'm chasing points elsewhere for this coming season, but in the long run, a 1-2 punch of Gibbs and Hampton is going to be lethal.

Round 3 - Lamar Jackson

What better way to make up fantasy points than going with the top fantasy player from last season. He's 28 years old, and should have several more big seasons left in him before we start to think about him falling off.

His dual-threat ability makes him a fantasy stud, and I expect him to be a top-five fantasy QB for several more years. He's remained pretty healthy over his career, especially the past two seasons, so that's also a positive.

Round 4 - Sam LaPorta

I knocked out the tight end slot by nabbing LaPorta in the fourth round. He's 24 years old.

He had a great rookie season, then regressed in his second year. I expect him to bounce back, but more importantly, be a good/great fantasy tight end for the next several years yet. 

He locks down the position and allows me to start focusing on backs and wide receivers again.

Round 5 - Jaylen Waddle

I didn't plan to grab my first wide receiver in round 5, but here we are. Waddle is 26 years old.

I actually just traded for Waddle in a dynasty league I'm in. Why did I make the move? Aside from getting younger, I see big things ahead for Waddle, as I expect the Dolphins to move on from Tyreek Hill eventually, leaving Waddle as the No. 1 guy.

Even if Miami adds another top end wideout, Waddle will remain one of the best No. 2 options in the league. He has several more productive seasons in him and finally gives me a receiver to build around.

Round 6 - Matthew Golden

This was a no-brainer pick when he appeared near the top of my list of available players. He's 22 years old.

He was drafted to become the new No. 1 receiver for the Packers, and I think he will eventually get there, maybe as soon as this season. I have really high hopes for Golden, and think injuries are the only thing that could hold him back from starring in Green Bay.

Golden could be a top-end dynasty wideout by next season, and he'll be my No. 1 guy for a long time.

Round 7 - Derrick Henry

It's wild to see Henry going this late in a draft, but we are talking about a dynasty league after all. The 31-year-old has to slow down eventually, right?

After getting Hampton early in the draft, I talked about needing to find points elsewhere. Well here, I find fantasy points for the near future at the same position.

This will allow me to stash Hampton if he doesn't impact the game as much as I think he will as a rookie. Henry probably has a couple more seasons in him too, so he'll help me compete for a title while the rest of my team matures and improves.

Round 8 - Jayden Higgins

I love Higgins, both in redraft formats and especially in dynasty leagues. The 22-year-old was the No. 34 overall pick this offseason.

I think he could emerge as the Texans' No. 1 wideout over time, eventually taking over for the injury-prone Nico Collins. I think Higgins is being slept on going into his rookie season, and like Golden, could be viewed as a top-end dynasty wideout going into 2026. 

For missing out on receivers early on, I'm all of a sudden feeling really good about the position.

Round 9 - Keon Coleman

With my starting lineup filled, and feeling pretty good about that group, I decided to take a swing on Coleman here. He had an OK rookie season, but I still have hope that the 22-year-old can develop into a top-end fantasy wideout.

Even if he's more like a 20-30 ranked wideout, Coleman can be a really good long-term option at receiver for me. Again, he's just a backup for me to start, but the upside is enough to take a chance on him.

Round 10 - Zach Charbonnet

I needed some more RB depth, so I decided on Charbonnet. He's 24 years old.

He took on more in his second year, and is behind an oft-injured Kenneth Walker. I think Charbonnet could become the team's top back in time, and even if he's more in a split backfield, there's some short- and long-term value in him.

Round 11 - Dalton Kincaid

We're back in Buffalo for another lottery pick here in Kincaid. He took a step back in his second NFL season, but I'm still betting on the former first-round pick and 25-year-old to turn into a top-end fantasy option in time.

Buffalo is still looking for long-term options to catch passes from Josh Allen, and Kincaid could emerge as one of those guys. The risk is lower taking him where I did, and there's still enough upside remaining to make this a worthwhile gamble.

Round 12 - Cooper Kupp

Kupp kept dropping, so I decided to end his slide and add the 32-year-old in round 12.

Kupp has fallen off since a breakout 2021 season, with injuries being a big reason why. He's in Seattle now, where he should be a nice No. 2 option behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

Hopefully I can get a little run out of Kupp before he retires. He's just a depth option for the next couple seasons, and then I can replace him with a rookie pick. He could be a trade asset if he excels in his first year with the Seahawks.

Round 13 - Caleb Williams

If you read enough of my stories, you know I'm not very high on Williams, both now and in the long run. However, I think getting him in round 13 is a low-risk pick that could pay off huge in the long run.

The 23-year-old could become a valuable trade chip if he takes off, and I'd look to sell him if he performs well this coming season. He could help me land another young QB and maybe some draft picks moving forward.

Round 14 - Adonai Mitchell

Mitchell was disappointing in his rookie season, but as a 2024 second-round pick and only being 22 years old, I think he's worth stashing for a season or two.

Indy could go through a massive rebuild if the quarterbacks don't work out this season, and it could leave the youngster as the team's top wideout going forward. He'd have to show something this season, but maybe he'll take off in 2025.

Round 15 - Tyler Allgeier

Just rounding out my roster and giving myself another flex starting option for the upcoming season. Allgeier is just 25 years old.

He's also the backup to one of the top backs in the game, and an injury could thrust him into the starting role, and maybe earn him a starting job elsewhere in a future season. Why not take a gamble on that?

Round 16 - Wan'Dale Robinson

I round out my draft with another flex starting option for this season. He's just 24 years old.

I don't see Robinson being more than a depth option for his career, but he can be startable in the right matchups, and could maybe take off if the Giants get better quarterback play moving forward.

Final Thoughts

I'm a big fan of this mock draft, and the draft simulator agreed, as I was graded as an A (95 out of 100). I got the top grade amongst the 12 teams.

I really don't see a big weakness on this season, and think I threaded the needle in being able to compete right away and also made sure my future was accounted for.

I didn't have any big reaches, while getting draft steals in Kincaid, Williams and Robinson. The only thing I'd have to worry about this season is heavy bye weeks in weeks 7 and 9, but that's not a huge concern in a dynasty format.

I really cannot complain about much here, and think this was one of my better mock drafts of the season, and maybe ever. I can't wait to do another, so check back soon for more!
