Below you’ll find my 2024 fantasy football draft rankings for points per reception (PPR) and half-PPR leagues. Included are my rankings for the top 32 quarterbacks, top 70 running backs, top 80 wide receivers and top 30 tight ends.
This is not a cheat-sheet, although you probably won’t get into trouble using it as one. This is how I have players ranked for the Fantasy Pros Accuracy competition. They are more closely related to pure projections, but considerations for injuries, consistency, and pure gut feel are taken into consideration. You can click this link for the methodology FantasyPros uses for their Accuracy Competition.
When examining these rankings, take into consideration they are based purely on positional ranks. The overall rankings are adjusted by an algorithm that sometimes looks at the tiers incorrectly. I would say that the top 100 overall is pretty accurate, but judging where your QB run or TE run will occur is beyond what a rankings sheet can do for you.

Fantasy Football Rankings Perspective
When I began publishing fantasy football rankings, back n 2015, it was out of frustration that the most popular "analysts" were really just writers or entertainers that didn't know much about real football, let alone the strategy of this game. Sadly, the more things change, the more they remain the same.
There are some very good analysts out there, but most get swallowed-up by click-bait specialists or hype-beasts that just say outlandish things to be seen and recognized. Back when I started there was an ESPN analyst that touted Michael Vick as a first-round pick. While this person might have whole-heartedly believed what he was saying and doing, it was irresponsible of him to tout such an outlandish position to such a broad and naive audience.
It's happening again, but now it's the next generation of ESPN "analyst" touting Anthony Richardson as his QB1 overall. I understand that if Richardson starts 17 games he very-well could be the QB1, but he has not shown any evidence that he can do that. Just be careful of touts that will say anything for attention and to get clicks, and please do yourself a favor and stay away from anything on ESPN, Barstool, or PFT (ProFootballTalk).
