Fantasy Football draft prep: Top-200 overall, position-by-position rankings cheat sheet

Get ready for your Fantasy Football drafts by digging in to Chris Towers' positional rankings

Got a last-minute Fantasy Football draft? Need last-minute Fantasy advice in the form of a cheat sheet? Here are my PPR rankings for the 2021 season, first going by position and then with my top 200 overall. For my updated rankings throughout the week and into the season, make sure you subscribe to the Fantasy Football Today Newsletter, and for Jamey Eisenberg, Dave Richard, and Heath Cummings' full rankings, head over here.

Just one quick note: While you may want to use the top 200 overall rankings while you're drafting, I would suggest keeping the position rankings close by. There's value in going with a "Best Player Available" strategy, obviously, a top-200 ranking can't necessarily account for the various ways your draft will go. There will be times when you need one position or the other, and having the positional rankings handy will prove helpful as well.

Any questions? Hit me up at Chris.Towers@CBSi.com with the subject line "#AskFFT" and I'll try to respond to as many questions I get, either personally or in the FFT Newsletter. Happy drafting!
