2021 fantasy football rankings (post-NFL Draft update): 300-plus players, with separate dynasty and rookie ranks (2024)

It’s time for fantasy football rankings (although let’s be honest…when is it not time for fantasy football rankings?)! The 2021 NFL Draft is in the books, fantasy grades have been given outand breakdowns of every skill pick provided, so why wait any longer?

Rookie Only ranks won’t match up perfectly with Dynasty Ranks, as you’ll see. Quarterbacks in particular get a boost if you’re drafting only rookies versus a fresh/startup dynasty draft.

At the bottom of this column, I put a downloadable color-coded printer-friendly spreadsheet (all the way at the end): the margins are set to 0.2 each side, and if the font changes on you, it’s Calibri 9. Rookies are also italicized.

Reminder: These are early rankings. They will change as we get closer to the season, as rosters clear up with potential signings (leftover free agents and/or undrafted players), injuries, cuts, etc. etc. Feel free to hop in the comments and ask/discuss player ranks.
