You realize how much you love the game when tasked to rank and write up 300 players and/or defenses from a fantasy perspective. But it is finished! My top 300 rankings as of Thursday, August 14th, 2025. These rankings were created considering a 12-team PPR league that starts 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, and a FLEX. …and, sure, a defense and kicker as well. I’ll update at a minimum one more time, and you’ll notice a couple of changes from my initial positional rankings. As fast as things change in the NFL, rankings are more of an ever-changing, living, breathing document versus something set in stone. As with any set of fantasy rankings, don’t consider these constraints as to which players you should draft and in what order. I consider multiple factors when doing my rankings, not just my projected finish for each player, but their range of outcomes, risk factor, potential red flags, their risk vs reward profile, and so much more. Click the links at the top or bottom of each page to switch between my full top 300, positional rankings, and more bite-sized chunks of the full set of rankings. Please feel free to ask questions, whether via Twitter/X @GMenJay or better yet, join our Discord and discuss all things fantasy with our plethora of fantastic analysts and passionate QB List community.
Tomorrow is the day, though. Dropping Friday, August 15th.
What’s that, you ask?
