To help find players on the rise, we looked at the recent average draft position (ADP) data for common home league providers.

ADP Riser at Quarterback
Patrick Mahomes II, Kansas City
It's only a small bump, but people don't need a reason to place a sticker for Mahomes. Rashee Rice is likely to avoid a suspension this year, which is all that was needed.
ADP Risers at Running Back
De'Von Achane, Miami
When healthy, Achane has league-winning upside. And right now, he's healthy.
Alvin Kamara, New Orleans | Chase Brown, Cincinnati | Rico Dowdle, Dallas
For various reasons, it looks like these three guys will have big roles for their teams. At running back, that's all it takes to see ADP increase.
ADP Risers at Tight End
George Kittle, San Francisco
This was likely a reaction to the Brandon Aiyuk trade rumors. If Aiyuk does stay in San Francisco, expect to see a downward tick in Kittle's ADP.
Tyler Conklin, NY Jets
Conklin flashed last year and should have better quarterback play. Also, except for Garrett Wilson, people are realizing that the Jets wide receivers are ailing (Mike Williams) or just not an impressive group.
ADP Risers at Wide Receiver
Cooper Kupp, LA Rams
Puka Nacua's bursa sac issue is minor. But it reminded home leaguers that Kupp has been far more healthy than he was a year ago.
Rashee Rice, Kansas City
With each passing week, it's more likely that Rice does not face a suspension in 2024.
Joshua Palmer, LA Chargers | Ja'Lynn Polk, New England
Palmer and Polk have had good camps and are competing against receivers who aren't wowing spectators. Their offenses could struggle, but these two guys could be their respective team's top wide receiver this year.
Brandin Cooks, Dallas
By all accounts, Cooks has looked great in camp and is clicking with Dak Prescott while CeeDee Lamb is holding out.
