Cheat Sheets are also available within the Mock Draft Simulator and Draft Assistant.

2A. Printable One-Page Fantasy Football Cheat Sheets (Premium)
RotoBaller has several cheat sheets that can be used in a multitude of ways to help fantasy gamers crush preseason drafts. Whether you're looking for cheat sheets with overall rankings or broken down by position, we have you covered for standard, half-PPR, and PPR formats.
All of our fantasy football cheat sheets are easily printable in PDF form for those who want a hard copy on draft day. This is especially helpful for manually crossing off each player as they come off the board.

Nick Mariano is a three-time top-12 ranker in FantasyPros' fantasy football weekly accuracy competition and one of the top analysts in the industry.
These cheat sheets will cover the majority of redraft leagues for 2023.
2B. Overall Rankings Color-Coded Draft Cheat Sheets (Premium)
The overall rankings cheat sheet for each format gives fantasy gamers an overview of the pecking order and power ranking of all players at every position. The sheet also includes tier breakdowns, bye weeks, auction values, and ADP data. Understanding when the end of a tier is coming helps managers cash in on the best value with each of their selections.
Cheat Sheet Overall PPR Rankings
It can be difficult to refrain from drafting solely based on "team needs" but the breakdown by tiers should help managers focus on a "best player available" approach. The selections in fantasy football drafts obviously don't go in order by position, so the cheat sheet stacking up all players at all positions is key. A set of rankings without tiers makes it a significant challenge to know when to pull the trigger on a defensive unit or kicker, but this sheet has those positions covered, too.
2C. Positional Rankings Color-Coded Draft Cheat Sheets (Premium)
There are plenty of benefits provided by the overall rankings cheat sheets, but positional breakdowns are important, too. While we just discussed the importance of drafting the "best player available" instead of for "team needs", there is a certain point in the draft where you'll have to start focusing on a position -- based on what position you're lacking after several rounds. This is where the positional rankings cheat sheets come into play.
Cheat Sheet Positional Rankings
It's always tough to choose between two fringe options at quarterback, running back, wide receiver, and tight end, so these cheat sheets give fantasy managers a more focused view of the positional pecking order. These sets of rankings also have tier breakdowns for all positions including defense/special teams units and kickers.
There are plenty of fantasy football drafters who use cheat sheets as their only tool and stick to its rankings from start to finish, while others utilize the resource as just a general guide to stay on track and use the cheat sheet rankings as a tie-breaker between two players they're considering.
It's worth noting our cheat sheets work great in conjunction with our wide array of premium tools and articles, so you can get as in-depth with these resources as you choose.
3. Fantasy Football Draft Cheat Sheets via Team Sync (Premium)
The Team Sync platform will automatically customize your rankings and projections, tailored for each league that you import, and create a customized Draft Cheat Sheet.
Team Sync will understand your league scoring, format, roster settings, and players available including your opponents' rosters. It will then automatically customize your rankings and projections within the Team Sync Draft Cheat Sheet module and the Draft Assistant tool. See Screenshot below.
As shown above, an imported cheat sheet is accessible during a live draft! This will prevent fantasy managers from having to flip back and forth between browsers while precious time is coming off the pick clock.
