Traditional fantasy football leagues have come to an end, but DFS gamers and fantasy enthusiasts playing in playoff leagues are still competing for something. We're providing fantasy coverage all throughout the playoffs, so we're back with our updated Wild Card fantasy football half-PPR rankings for fantasy football, as of January 10th.

Early Wild Card Fantasy Football Half-PPR Rankings

You can also check out our Wild Card  PPR rankings and Standard rankings. A big congrats to our very own Nick Mariano who once again finished as a top-10 ranker in 2021 across the entire fantasy football industry!

Note that quarterbacks, defenses and kickers are all grouped separately towards the bottom. Each of those positions is ranked on their own. This helps to compare running backs, wide receivers and tight ends for FLEX spots (without QB, DEF, K mixed in).
