(EDIT: Here are the most up to date rankings –> Auction Values, Tiers and Cheat Sheet for PPR – http://su.pr/A17UuB NonPPR – http://su.pr/9DEgIM)
Here are the PPR Rankings for Running Backs. For some reason the running backs who have more receptions are the ones that score more points here. Weird.
Here are the rankings. Be gentle. Or not. Thankfully I’m hidden behind this computer, which is bullet-proof and has laser guided missiles attached.

Why so low on J-Stew? Worried that he’ll get injured? Won’t get enough carries? Or that he’s just not gonna be good?
August 4th, 2011 at 2:20 am
1) Do you think losing Gallery and Miller hurts Mcfadden’s value due to the overall weakening of the O-line? Him and M.Bush were both very effective last season which makes me wonder…
2)I am picking # 12 in a 12 team snake draft… PPR for wideouts only. With pix 12 and 13, which 2 do you recommend assuming they are still there…(R. White, Mendenhall, MJD, Vick, Mcfadden, C Johnson, Fitzgerald).
3) I think I can wait until until round 9-10(#108-109) and pick up 2 QB’s should I choose to forego Vick or Rodgers in round 1&2. I should be able to choose from Bradford, Cutler, Stafford, Cassel or Kolb). Which 2 do you rec.
Thanks in advance…

Are you going to compile a list of the top 100 or so in running order for non-ppr?

Are you going to publish a list of the top 100 or so players to draft in running order for non-ppr? I see you have the tiers… but I was wondering if you were going to do something like Grey does for his baseball rankings. He does a top 100, and top 300.
Cheers

Oops, I didn’t think my first post went through… sorry Doc.
August 4th, 2011 at 9:58 am
you taking into account SoS?
@Joe: Without Fox you aren’t going to see quite as many opportunities for both and he doesn’t catch enough passes to be worth much in PPR.
@fred haase: I think they can withstand the loss. McFadden is elite as long as he stays healthy. I like White and DMC. Stafford/Cutler
@sarge: I will
@ray: I try my hardest not to.

@Doc: i am a fellow jc worshipper, but the signing of mcclain along with a rather tough late season schedule (pitt, chi, nyj and gb in weeks 12-15) have me questioning whether i should take him at 4 in a ppr league if he is there. please talk me off the ledge.
thanks.
@herschel: A lot can happen between now and then. I take the best player no matter. I’m not worried about McClain/Jones. You can’t get much worse than last season and he was still a stud. If that stretch of games still looks horrible by mid season you could always look to trade.
August 4th, 2011 at 2:41 pm
What do you think of this deal in a dynasty league. I am getting Stafford, Chris Johnson (whom I both love), Deion Branch, Ryan Torain and I am giving up Reggie Wayne, Frank Gore, Matt Shaub, and Danario Alexander. I offered the trade with Mercedes Lewis in place of Danario so I would like to do it but idk now
@Trevor: Very good for you
August 4th, 2011 at 5:08 pm
Yeah i didnt even need to wait for you i wnet ahead and pulled the deal..Im very glad he let me keep Merced Lewis even though I have Jimmy Graham too
August 6th, 2011 at 10:03 pm
I’m really torn between Rice and Charles at the 4 spot, ppr obviously. I know McGahee is gone in BAL and Mclain is in KC now, but my gut is saying Charles. Talk to me into one of them haha.
@@mikefisher81: JC is the better talent
August 18th, 2011 at 11:26 am
Thanks for the great ppr list. Wondering why ridley as the first patriots rb? Not that he’s doing anything to disprove the idea, just looking for a reason to trust any NE RB.
