4. More Fantasy Football Analysis

Welcome back RotoBallers! Below you will find our staff's updated 2021 fantasy football rankings (top 425) for half-PPR scoring formats. For those who are not familiar, half-PPR scoring means that skill players receive an extra 1/2 point for every reception. Our team of rankers take this scoring setting into consideration, and have customize their half-PPR rankings accordingly to emphasize wide receivers, runnings backs and tights ends that they project to see a higher volume of pass targets and catches.

These rankings are being released after the conclusion of the 2021 NFL Draft - meaning the ranks are now factoring in trades, off-season moves, and rookie landing spots - but things will of course continue to change as we get closer to the start of the NFL season. Adjustments will be made to all of our staff rankings all offseason long up until Week 1, so be sure to check back regularly for any player movements. You can also see our staff's ongoing rankings analysis articles discussing draft values, sleepers, players to target/avoid, the NFL rookies, and analyzing the NFL Draft results.

And of course, be sure to also check out our 2021 fantasy football rankings dashboard and bookmark it! That RotoBaller rankings homepage is loaded up with lots of other great staff rankings - all updated after the NFL Draft - including our updated Best Ball rankings, PPR Rankings, Standard league rankings, Dynasty League rankings and 2021 NFL Rookie rankings. Bookmark those pages, and prepare for all of your drafts.
