Fantasy football player rankings for playoff contests

Fantasy football draft rankings for the remainder of the NFL postseason.

The following set of PPR rankings are geared toward anyone in a redrafting fantasy football playoff contest. The forecasted number of total remaining games to be played largely factors into each player’s rankings, so feel free to use this as a baseline rather than a be-all, end-all approach for choosing a roster if you see the postseason shaking out in a different manner.

For weekly lineup rankings and projections, make sure to check out our Start/Bench Tool each Wednesday of the postseason.
