FAQ

How are these fantasy rankings made?

Each player is ranked by projected fantasy points for Week 9 (projections from RotoWire via Sleeper), then grouped into tiers where the projections drop off. Matchup grades come from how many fantasy points each defense has allowed to the position this season. Full details are on the methodology page.

How often are the rankings updated?

The data is checked every 6 hours, all week. Projections move with injury news, depth chart changes and practice reports, so check back before kickoff. A new week's board goes live once the previous week's games are final, usually on Tuesday.

What do the tiers mean?

Players in the same tier have similar projected outcomes. When deciding between two players in one tier, lean on matchup, health and your gut rather than the exact rank number.

What is the difference between PPR, half-PPR and standard?

PPR awards one point per reception, half-PPR awards half a point, and standard awards none. Pass catchers gain value as reception points increase.
