2024 Top 250 Underdog Fantasy Rankings

August 28, 2024 4:53pm EDT

These top 250 best ball fantasy football rankings are geared towards Underdog Fantasy’s 0.5 PPR (half-point per reception) leagues.

These rankings are made with these tournaments' top-heavy payout structures in mind.

Ideally, you’ll draft 2-3 QBs, 4-6 RBs, 7-10 WRs, and 2-3 TEs (18 roster spots) to your team and stacking is heavily encouraged.

Stacking is an if/then upside game.

For example, if you take Marvin Harrison Jr. early, immediately bump up Kyler Murray in your rankings. Not only are you generating upside with Murray-Harrison’s combined fantasy points, but you’re also solving another roster spot later in the draft (in this instance, a mid-round QB).

Before you draft, be sure to read my Underdog Strategy Guide where I walk through optimal roster construction, conditional drafting, stacking, and give out all of my strategy tips.

Subscribers can download a CSV (Excel) and upload these rankings directly to Underdog.
