Last night, the NFL preseason came to a close. That means the 2018 NFL season has finally begun. With games that count starting in less than a week, it is time to release the top 240 fantasy football dynasty rankings. A few important notes on the rankings you are about to see. These rankings are for single QB, full PPR leagues.

You may ask: Superflex and 2QB are much better formats, why even bother ranking single QB? First, I completely agree, single QB leagues are dying out for a reason, and in a dynasty format the QB position needs to be elevated to be on par with the value of the other positions. However, it is much easier for me to rank single QB and then tell you to adjust as needed for your league. For example, there are so many different settings for 2QB and superflex and league size matters as well…

In a 14 team superflex league, there are probably multiple QBs that go in the first round of startups (and they should). In a ten team 2QB league, you might not see any in the first round. So the short answer is that it is easier for me to rank them as single QB (since many still use this setting) and then give specific advice for adjustments in the comments or on twitter if you are in a different style league. If there is a strong demand for a setting, I will release updated rankings for those as well (such as standard or superflex).

The dynasty football landscape is constantly changing. The deadline for rosters to be cut to 53 is tomorrow at 4:00 p.m. By then, some player values will have already changed. There will be constant movement on these rankings weekly, but remember not to overreact to weekly stats. Opportunity and roles will be the foundation for moving a player’s value. His stock may rise or fall in redraft much more than in dynasty, especially for stable assets under-performing with no true threat to playing time or flashes in the pan with no true threat to overtake those ahead of him on the depth chart. One week is no reason to overpay or undersell.

Remember when Mike Gillislee scored three touchdowns and JuJu Smith-Schuster, despite starting, finished with zero targets in the opening week last year? We know how those two players trended for the rest of the season. Beware of the recency bias and take advantage of those people who overreact to the week to week stat lines. I will come out with an update for these rankings each month. I will update this before week one begins to reflect the latest and greatest cuts, moves, and contract extensions.
