Fantasy football draft season is here, and Eric Moody identifies players being drafted too low with upside to outperform their ADP. His targets span all positions, focusing on those with real potential to exceed expectations.

At quarterback, Kyler Murray (ADP: QB17) reunites with Justin Jefferson and T.J. Hockenson under Kevin O'Connell, giving him everything needed to return to QB1 territory. Jaxson Dart (ADP: QB7) averaged 22.6 fantasy points per start last season despite missing key receivers and should improve with Malik Nabers back.

At running back, Kenny Gainwell (ADP: RB32) has averaged 18.6 fantasy points in games with 14+ touches and could see increased workload as Bucky Irving's role potentially decreases. Omarion Hampton (ADP: RB13) excelled as a rookie and should take a step forward in Year 2 with improved offensive line play.

Among wide receivers, Terry Mc Laurin (ADP: WR23) offers WR1 upside at a back-end WR2 price, with new OC David Blough planning to increase his target share. Michael Pittman Jr. (ADP: WR31) joins Aaron Rodgers in Mike McCarthy's offense, fitting perfectly in the slot role that thrived in Green Bay.
