Welcome to my ranking of the top-150 players for 2021 fantasy football dynasty leagues. I’ve based the rankings on 0.5 PPR scoring, though adjusting for full point or standard scoring would result in very little change to the rankings, as I have based this on potential returns over a minimum three-year period.
The latest iteration of the rankings have been updated to reflect the news about Travis Etienne’s foot injury and what we’ve seen from training camp and the preseason.
Let me know who you think I’m too high or low on in the comments.
