Quick Links to Other Positions: Overall · QB · RB · WR · TE · Def/ST · PK

Below, you will find the average rankings from five more popular fantasy football magazines (FantasyDiehards, ProFantasyWeekly, Rotowire, Fantasy Source, and Rotoworld). You will also see each player's rank from the early magazines, their median rank, and their 'High' rank and 'Low' rank. We offer these compiled magazine rankings as a guide but obviously not to tell you what player to draft. Instead, use these rankings as a tool to help you spy on the magazine drafters in your league. Also, note that we do not tell you where a player is ranked in a specific magazine as we feel it to be unethical. If there is a player/team that you consider a sleeper, these rankings can help you judge his proper draft position. If a player/team is highly rated by the magazines, the average magazine drafter will likely take them early. Conversely, if a player/team is rated low by the magazines, the average magazine drafter will likely not take them early.
