March CFF Draft: 30-Round College Fantasy Football Draft Breakdown
Kevin analyzes his recent CFF mock that he drafted in hopes of helping CFF degenerates and drafters.
Welcome to my March update on CFF drafts and ADP trends. In this edition, we’re diving into ADP risers, fallers, values, and overall draft strategy. It might seem early to start prepping for College Fantasy Football (CFF), but if you want to stay ahead of the competition, now is the time to fine-tune your approach.
So far this offseason, I’ve already drafted in ten CFF leagues, giving me a strong pulse on trends, player values, and draft strategies. In this article, I’m breaking down a full 30-round CFF draft, highlighting key players poised to make an impact this season, along with some standout values that could give you an edge. While most early CFF content is locked behind a paywall, I wanted to make these draft boards and ADP trends accessible to everyone.
This mock was organized by a member of our Discord, and we’ll be running these regularly throughout the year to refine rankings and player evaluations. If you’re interested in joining future mocks, drop a comment below, and I’ll connect you with the league organizer. Plus, for just $1, you can access our Discord—a small investment to stay ahead of your league.
This draft followed Superflex/PPR scoring settings, which increases the value of quarterbacks and pass-catching backs and receivers. Below, you’ll find the full draft board along with my insights on current ADP trends. Let’s dive in!

Risers
WR Easton Messer - Florida Atlantic Owls
(ADP Jump: 57.2 —> 31.2)
Easton Messer has been one of the biggest ADP risers this offseason. After a strong sophomore year at Western Kentucky, where he recorded 55 receptions for 793 yards and four touchdowns, he transferred to Florida Atlantic alongside his quarterback, Caden Veltkamp. Their established chemistry is a key factor in his rise, as Messer accounted for nearly 20% of Veltkamp’s completed passes last season.
Messer’s versatility also boosts his fantasy appeal—he contributed 333 kick return yards and earned All-Conference USA and All-Freshman Team honors. Even with his ADP climbing, he remains a high-upside value pick with top-10 WR potential in CFF.
RB Damien Taylor - Troy Trojans
(ADP Jump: 72.2 —> 32.8)
Taylor’s stock has soared following his impressive 2024 season, where he became just the 11th player in Troy history to surpass 1,000 rushing yards. He finished with 1,010 yards and seven touchdowns, cementing himself as one of the Sun Belt’s premier backs. His explosiveness was evident—26 runs of 10+ yards and 11 of 20+ yards—while also proving to be a capable receiver.
Heading into 2025, Taylor is the focal point of Troy’s offense behind an experienced offensive line. His workload and playmaking ability position him as one of the top RB options in CFF this season.
RB Darrion Dupree - Wisconsin Badgers
(ADP Jump: 230.8 —> 165.8)
Dupree has steadily climbed in ADP, and rightfully so. While his 2024 stat line (317 yards, one touchdown) was modest, his ability to gain yards after contact and his receiving upside make him an intriguing prospect. With Tawee Walker’s departure, Dupree is primed to take over the backfield in Madison.
Wisconsin’s decision to avoid adding a veteran running back via the transfer portal signals confidence in Dupree and the young group behind him. With an expanded role on the horizon, he offers tremendous late-round value in drafts.
Fallers
WR Kevin Concepcion - Texas A&M Aggies
(ADP Jump: 55.2 —> 114.4)
