NFL free agency always brings chaos, reshaping team rosters and shaking up fantasy football values. Some players land in ideal situations, primed to break out, while others see their stock plummet due to new competition or unfavorable circumstances.

The initial wave of moves across the NFL in the last week did not affect the top of the 2025 fantasy football rankings. The majority of the free-agent signings and trades shook up the middle of the overall rankings and the tables at specific positions.

A lot has happened since I wrote my most recent fantasy columns (2025 first round rankings and the top tier at each position). Dozens of players have changed teams via free agency or trade, and dozens more have signed extensions with their current team.
