How to Set Your Fantasy Lineup with Rankings

Start with Positional Ranks

Begin by using my positional rankings when you’re deciding between two players. That will show you how each player compares to others at the same position. After that, refer to my FLEX rankings to see how they stack up regardless of position.

Keep in mind that tight ends are intentionally ranked lower in the FLEX rankings because they lose much of their positional advantage there. Since tight end is typically the shallowest position in fantasy football, using one in a FLEX spot reduces the value that comes from having an edge over your opponents at that position.

Consider the Game Script

After consulting the rankings, you want to consider the projected game scripts. Check the spread and implied totals for each team. If you’re torn on two players who are ranked similarly, start the player on the team projected to score more points.

You may also check the pace of play for each team. Teams that play faster will have more opportunities to pad their stats. While this factor is baked into the ranks, it’s still good to check when torn between two players.

Use the Stack as a Tiebreaker

If you’re debating between two wide receivers, but one is tied to your quarterback, always select that one. This raises your weekly upside because the two players have a strong correlation, which means that their fantasy production aligns with each other.

For example, suppose I’m debating between DeVonta Smith and Deebo Samuel at my FLEX spot, but I have Jalen Hurts as my quarterback.

In that case, I may consider going with Smith, even though he’s ranked lower than Samuel. This is because if Hurts is playing well, there’s a good chance that Smith will join in on the fun.

Best DFS Sites Where You Can Use Fantasy Football Rankings

Two of the best sites to play DFS are FanDuel and OwnersBox. The former has several large-field tournaments where you can hit a big payout, while the latter has innovative features, like a SuperFlex format. This is a feature that sets OwnersBox apart from the competition.

When using the rankings, be sure to consider your lineup construction. You want your lineup to have a stack (quarterback plus two teammates) along with a “bring-back," which is when you add in an opposing player.

An example is Dak Prescott with CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens. I could bring it back with Jayden Reed as an opposing pass-catcher. Always consider your lineup construction in conjunction with my rankings.
