This one is much larger than I'm used to this year)0:00 - Intro0:23 - How good is Aubrey Pleasant?2:30 - Why are the coaches linked to the Giants so unappealing?4:49 - What would you tell someone who missed the entire NFL seas...

2025 Fantasy Rankings V2.0 (Half-PPR and Full-PPR)

Alright everyone, they're here!This is an updated version of the Fantasy Rankings as we head into the third and final weekend of the preseason, and this version also includes tabs for Full-PPR! Keep in mind that the receiver orders and tiers are quite similar between Half and Full PPR, while the running back orders were more differentiated. That is largely because over the last decade or so, the NFL has moved away from "slot machine" types of receivers that benefitted from high volumes of targets at the expense of red zone productio...

2025 Half-PPR Fantasy Rankings V1.0

My deepest, sincerest apologies for getting these up later than usual this year, everyone! My move ended up taking way, way more time than expected, so I was significantly delayed in getting all my preseason film study done from PWK1 to finalize version 1.0.For the pure PPR or traditional standard scoring players among us, I will have a v1.5 released in a couple of days that makes the necessary tweaks to these rankings to reflect those formats, but in the meantime if you have any questions at all, please feel free to ask them below!These rankin...

2025 Rookie Dynasty Position Rankings

Hello everyone!Some of you have been asking for me to put together position rankings for your upcoming rookie dynasty drafts, so I put them all into a downloadable excel document for you here (attached below).Keep in mind that many of these placements are quite divorced from my initial film grades on these prospects from the Pre-Draft process, and they are very much influenced by their current environments, scheme fits, and (likely) roles on their new teams.If you have any questions at all (about anything!), feel free to ask in the comments bel...

2024 Fantasy Rankings v2.5 (Combined Half-PPR Update)

Hi everyone! I know some of you have your Half-PPR drafts this weekend, so here is a quick update that includes the combined Half-PPR rankings on top of the Half-PPR position rankings that already exist.Good luck to everyone!

2024 Fantasy Rankings v2.0 (UPDATE)

Okay folks, the NFL preseason has now come and gone, and I'm finally fully moved into my new place as of today.Up above is a concept that I mocked up in photoshop for my new shooting space. Expect a build out VERY soon for that room, which for the first time ever will be a full time permanent set for me that I don't have to constantly set up and then tear down in between shoots (thank God).It's almost midnight here over on the west coast, but I just polished off v2.0 of the Fantasy Rankings based on any further injury news we've...

2024 PPR Fantasy Rankings V1.5 (FINALLY)

First things first, my deepest apologies for the first wave of rankings taking so much longer than usual this year.Preparing for my move out of my current place has taken up way more time than I expected over the last couple of weeks (yes, great timing, I know)...so I couldn't finish all of my research, tape study, and injury report googling until after the second week of preseason. That being said, I have now finally finished the first version of this year's PPR Fantasy rankings, and that excel document is attached below. Keep in mind ...
