Updated 2022 Fantasy Football Best Ball Rankings (Post-NFL Draft): Saquon Barkley, Miles Sanders, Gabriel Davis, DJ Moore

Gabriel Davis - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Updated fantasy football best-ball draft rankings for the 2022 NFL season. These staff consensus ranks are after the NFL Draft, and for best-ball formats.

Hello there RotoBallers! In this article you'll see our NFL team's updated 2022 fantasy football best ball rankings (top 350) for your drafts. These fantasy football rankings are geared towards best-ball formats -- where a player with more inconsistency, volatility, and week-to-week boom or bust variance does not lose as much value.

If anyone is not familiar with fantasy football best ball leagues, they are draft-only leagues that automatically take your "best" scoring players each week. As soon as drafts are over, no moves are made by the managers for the rest of the year. In best-ball leagues, managers don't set their lineups each week, there are no trades, and there are no waiver wire adds. For every week of the season , your best combination of players from your roster is used to calculate your score. You automatically get the highest-scoring players, which essentially ensures max points for your team each week. Drafting players who can emerge later in the year, or carry large backup value, can pay big dividends on draft day if they emerge as significant fantasy contributors throughout the season.

Three of our lead fantasy football and best ball analysts - Pierre Camus, Phil Clark and Scott Engel - have combined their individual rankings to form the below consensus. These rankings will be updated continuously throughout the preseason, so make sure to book mark our main fantasy football rankings portal and check back regularly for updates. Best ball drafts always start earlier than regular drafts, and they are already in high gear. Our friends over at FFPC (Fantasy Football Players Championship) are running a huge best ball tournament, it's $125 to enter with a $200,000 grand prize and $1 million total prize pool. Use our best ball rankings and best ball articles to help you win big. Good luck RotoBallers!
