Wow, the NFL season is right around the corner! My oh my, the month of August has flown by, and now we are a little more than two weeks away from the start of football, which means more and more fantasy football drafts will begin to take place. For those who have already done mock drafts or are looking for some last-second help, we’ve got you covered! Today, we’re taking a look at one of the most important aspects of our all-new draft guide - our positional rankings. More importantly, we are taking a close look at our half-PPR RB rankings.

Our 2022 Football Draft Guide is loaded with the tools you need to ace your summer drafts, filled with multi-scoring format rankings, industry expert mock drafts, high-upside sleepers, hundreds of player profiles and so much more - we’re confident this year’s edition is among the finest we’ve ever produced. Plus, you’ll find exclusive feature columns from our experts on a range of important topics ahead of the season. If you’re looking for positional tiers, team-by-team insights, and projections for a variety of formats including Best Ball, IDP and Dynasty, then our Draft Guide could be exactly what you’re looking for.

When looking at our RB rankings, you can filter between projected points as well as the scoring format you’re in (PPR, half-PPR and others) among much more. After multiple seasons with injury, where does Christian McCaffrey sit? Just how high are we ranking Aaron Jones even after the emergence of AJ Dillon? Where does Ezekiel Elliott sit after a disappointing 2021 campaign? These questions and more can be answered within our top-20 half-PPR RB rankings.
