Fantasy Football Cheat Sheet: PPR Rankings and Tiers
Top 250 : Is Drake London really a Round 2 pick this year? We think so.
Quarterback : How high are you allowed to be on Anthony Richardson? He's a Tier 1 guy in our eyes. ( Check out our QB tiers )
Running Back : The young studs reign supreme in the upper tiers of our running back rankings. But one dominant veteran is still on top. ( Check out our RB tiers )
Wide Receiver : This isn't your dad's fantasy league. Rookie wide receivers can and will dominate this year. ( Check out our WR tiers )
Tight End : This is the deepest tight end has been in over a decade. That statement certainly won't come back to hurt us. ( Check out our TE tiers )
Defense and Special Teams : Just draft one defense and get on with it, right? But can anyone recreate the season of the "Sacksonville" Jaguars? ( Check out our D/ST tiers )
Kickers : You'll never guess who our top kicker is. We'll give you a hint, it's not Justin Tucker
Fantasy Football Rookie Rankings 2024
Overall Rookie Rankings : We highlight our top 35 rookies in this year's draft class. Two dominant wide receivers highlight the top of our list, with two quarterbacks to follow. Surprisingly, No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams doesn't crack our top three. But where do fan-favorite rookie sleepers like Ben Sinnott and Kimani Vidal fall?
Fantasy Football Sleepers 2024
Each Team : We hope you're ready for the year of Rashod Bateman. While Bateman is looking to break out in year four, this list is littered with rookies who could have an impact right away.
Quarterbacks : It seems like fantasy managers are ready to give up on Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars' offense just a bit too early. Jayden Daniels is also poised to solidify himself as a top-10 option as a rookie.
Running Backs : Taking advantage of uncertainty in quality offenses is the best way to find studs at running back. Embracing the question marks in Dallas and Cincinnati could pay off in a big way.
Wide Receivers : A couple of speedsters are set up to make splash plays all season long. Make sure you get them on your roster.
Tight Ends : The position is rather top-heavy this season. But there are still a few gems available in the late rounds.
Defenses : Streaming a defense each week is always a viable option, but don't be afraid to take a shot on one of these units.
Fantasy Football Busts 2024
Top 10 Busts : Unfortunately, not every player can beat their ADP. For one reason or another, drafters are currently overvaluing these 10 players. Is it possible for last year's TE1 to bust?

Overall : Blowing 70 percent of your budget on Christian McCaffrey and Tyreek Hill is a choice... maybe not a good one.
