These rankings are designed for PPR redraft leagues and complied from a number of users from the Cafe community. We’ve ranked players at RB, WR, and TE with points-per-reception leagues in mind, and included our previous rankings at QB, PK, and DF to assist with the navigation. The Article Discussion link at the end of the page can be used to converse about your thoughts on these rankings.
Thanks to bmor8811, bungle613, Cowboys 4 Life, Dan Lambskin, daullaz, Indibuck and madaslives911 for supplying their complete rankings.
