With most fantasy football seasons now over, let’s take a look at those players who excelled despite mostly going undrafted.
One quarterback, two running backs, two wide receivers, and one tight end will be highlighted. This list only has two of the six individuals being the same as the ones mentioned in the mid-season list.
Fantasy Pros takes the average draft position of various well-known websites such as ESPN and Yahoo and averaged them out. Players would be eligible for this list if their average draft position was later than 180 (180 players are drafted in a 10-team, 18-round draft).
It wasn’t a very strong season for mostly undrafted running backs, but two were still included.
Some honorable mentions include Matthew Stafford at quarterback, Jamaal Williams at running back, A.J. Brown and Terry McLaurin at wide receiver, and Tyler Higbee and Dallas Goedert at tight end.
Quarterback - Ryan Tannehill, Titans (2,544 pass yards, 20 pass touchdowns, 6 interceptions, 165 rushing yards, 4 rushing touchdowns, 1 fumble lost)
Taking over for Marcus Mariota and starting Tennessee’s last nine outings, Tannehill has averaged 266.7 passing yards as a starter and has accounted for multiple touchdowns in all nine contests. Seen as a bust with the Dolphins, he currently leads the league this year in yards per attempt and passer rating. A free agent after the season, Tannehill’s projected market value is listed at three years, $76,766,512 according to Spotrac.

Running back - Raheem Mostert, 49ers (715 rushing yards, 6 rushing touchdowns, 13 catches, 164 receiving yards, 2 receiving touchdowns, 1 fumble lost)
Despite being part of a running back by committee much of the year alongside Matt Breida and Tevin Coleman, Mostert is having a very productive 2019 season. He has averaged 5.6 yards per carry on the season and has averaged 73.4 rushing yards in his last five games with one rushing score in all five contests.

Running back - Latavius Murray, Saints (576 rushing yards, 5 rushing touchdowns, 33 catches, 221 receiving yards, 1 receiving touchdown)
Murray did much of his damage in Weeks 7 and 8 when he combined for 221 rushing yards, 14 receptions, 86 receiving yards, and four total touchdowns. He has also rushed for over 60 yards in two of his last five games.
I REALLY like Latavius Murray, such a great pick up!!! #GoSaints

Wide receiver - Devante Parker, Dolphins (64 catches, 1,065 receiving yards, 9 receiving touchdowns)
Now in his fifth season, Parker is finally having a breakout year for Miami after being selected in the first round in 2015. His nine receiving touchdowns equals his combined total from his first four years, and in nine of his last 10 games, he finished with at least four catches.
Dolphins OC singles out DeVante Parker and Mike Gesicki as the players he’s most proud of in terms of development. He notes that Ryan Fitzpatrick has been at the center of all of it and has helped him quite a bit in his first year as a play-caller. pic.twitter.com/IEqH1Ksa0X

Wide receiver - DJ Chark Jr., Jaguars (69 catches, 974 receiving yards, 8 receiving touchdowns, 20 rushing yards)
A second round pick in 2018, Chark’s nondescript rookie season consisted of just 14 catches without a score. In 2019, he has caught at least three balls in 12 of his 14 outings and has gone over 100 yards receiving three times.
The following @jaguars players named alternates for the Pro Bowl, K Josh Lambo (1st alternate), Leonard Fournette (2nd alternate), Josh Allen (2nd alternate), Logan Cooke (3rd alternate) & DJ Chark Jr. (3rd alternate). #jaguars

Tight end - Darren Waller, Raiders (84 catches, 1,038 receiving yards, 3 receiving touchdowns, 1 fumble lost)
With Jared Cook leaving Oakland to join the Saints, Waller stepped in and exceeded all expectations. After totaling just 178 yards in 22 career games entering 2019, he has gone over the century mark this season.
Football almost killed Darren Waller. Then, football saved Darren Waller https://t.co/Ta2bH5z03b
