To identify PPR WR1 candidates for the 2025 NFL season, fantasy football managers must first examine 2024 results from Weeks 1-17 results. Here, we detail the 2024 PPR WR1 class’ offensive environment and target and efficiency metrics, five of which strongly correlate to PPR WR1 performance.
These highly correlated metrics include age, PFF receiving grade, total targets, first-read targets and yards per route run. PFF receiving grade and age show the strongest correlation, with 11 players being 25 years old or younger and/or grading out as one of the top 12 wide receivers among 36 qualifiers with at least 449 receiving snaps in Weeks 1-17.
