Rice was the WR5 by points per game last year and the WR2 by PPG in 2024, if you throw out the game he left early without recording a single stat. Rice underwent knee surgery this offseason and went to jail for violating his probation. He also plays a style of football that is almost certainly better for fantasy managers than it is valuable for an NFL team. I do not care. Rice's PPR scam puts fantasy points on the table in droves and he costs the last pick of the third round to acquire.

Rice's WR5 PPG and PPR-friendly style justify third-round cost despite injury and legal issues.

Rice was the WR5 by points per game last year and the WR2 by PPG in 2024 (excluding a game he left early). He underwent knee surgery this offseason and faced legal issues (jail for probation violation). JJ Zachariason dismisses these concerns, stating Rice's PPR-friendly style puts fantasy points on the table in droves and costs only the last pick of the third round to acquire, framing his fantasy value as independent of NFL team value.
