Fantasy football playoff draft player rankings

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

The following set of PPR rankings are geared toward anyone in a draft-n-hold fantasy football playoff league. The forecasted number of games played largely drives each player’s rankings, so feel free to use this as a baseline rather than a be-all, end-all approach to choosing a playoff-long roster.

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