Built from live average draft position across Sleeper, Fantasy Football
Calculator and ESPN — then adjusted for injuries, workload, offence and value over
replacement. Every player shows what the market says and exactly why we disagree.
Most rankings are one person's opinion. This one starts from what drafters are
actually doing — real average draft position, refreshed every night — and then applies a
published set of adjustments, each measured in draft slots so you can see the size of every call:
Value over replacement. A player is worth what he scores above the man you would
otherwise start at his position, not what he scores in a vacuum.
Injuries. Roster designations and the actual body part, not the weekly practice
report. A "questionable" torn ACL is not questionable.
Workload. A committee backfield and a three-down job are not the same asset.
Offence. The same player scores more often on a top-ten offence.
Quarterback rushing. Taken from last season's actual production rather than a label,
which is why the running quarterbacks sit above where the market has them.
Defences and kickers are ranked after the skill board instead of pretending we can
compare them to receivers.
No stack of adjustments may move a player more than 14 slots above where
the market has him. That rail exists so the board cannot drift into looking arbitrary.
