Spend more time winning, less time guessing. Stay ahead with accurate rankings, advanced tools, and data-driven content.

Our dynamic rankings utilize algorithms and site projections that can be customized for various scoring systems and roster needs. This produces a Value Over Replacement (VOR) calculation, the basis for our overall rankings. Overall rankings exclude defense and kickers.

Users can also choose to blend the rankings between VOR and Average Draft Position, to better prepare to draft without reaching too far for key players. We recommend starting with a VOR% value of 50% and adjusting from there to alter the weight between VOR and ADP.

Flex positions can be divvied up among the positions. For example, if a league has two starting running backs, three starting receivers, and a RB/WR flex, users can enter "2.5" for RB Starters and "3.5" for WR starters to place more emphasis on those positions.

VOR = Value Over Replacement, the calculation to rank players across positions based on their projected fantasy points and factoring the lineup requirements for your league

ADP = Average Draft Position rank from our multi-site ADP tool

ADP Dif = Difference between 4for4.com and ADP

GC = General Consensus ranking averaged from a large pool of fantasy analysts
