Hey sports junkies! Our rankings of the top 75 players are based upon standard fantasy football categories and they reflect the most valuable fantasy performers in the National Football League. Think of the rankings table as a guide to which players are the most valuable players in fantasy football. We take into account each player's objective perfomance on the field (the stat line) in conjunction with his subjective "value" in the eyes of the football world (the people you're trying to trade with).
