FantasyHQ fantasy rankings are a board cluster — every combination of position, format (redraft / dynasty), and scoring (PPR / Half PPR / Standard) is its own page. This guide is the hub: learn the columns, then open the board that matches your league.

How to navigate the board

  1. Format — pick Redraft or Dynasty in the top strip.
  2. Scoring — match PPR, Half PPR, or Standard to your league.
  3. Position — use the pills (QB–DST). # resets to positional rank.
  4. Tips — hover the ⓘ icons on headers for definitions in place.
  5. Profiles — click a player name for projections, usage, and trade values.

Columns explained

#
Positional rank on this board. Lower is better.
OVR
Overall rank across all positions in the same format and scoring set.
Proj Pts
Season projected fantasy points for the active scoring format.
PPG
Projected points per game — better for bye weeks and uneven schedules.
Katz
Analyst rank. Gaps vs consensus feed Sleepers and Busts.
Soppe
Second analyst rank — use disagreement with Katz and OVR to find edges.
Value
FantasyHQ trade/value score. Cross-check deals in the Trade Analyzer.

Redraft vs dynasty

This season

Redraft

Optimizes the current year only. Veterans with win-now production climb; long-term upside alone is not enough.

Multi-year

Dynasty

Weights age, runway, and multi-year upside. Young producers rise; aging win-now pieces often fall. Open the dynasty rankings board.

Frequently asked questions

What does # mean on FantasyHQ rankings?

"#" is the positional rank on that board (QB1, RB1, WR1). Lower is better. It resets when you switch position pills.

What is the difference between OVR and #?

"#" ranks players within one position. OVR ranks them across all positions in the same format and scoring set — useful for draft pick tradeoffs.

Who are Katz and Soppe?

Katz and Soppe are FantasyHQ analyst columns. Large gaps versus consensus surface sleepers (ranked higher by an analyst) and busts (ranked lower).

Should I use redraft or dynasty rankings?

Use redraft for one-season leagues. Use dynasty when age, runway, and multi-year upside matter more than this year’s ceiling alone.
