In the preseason fantasy football top 150 point-per-reception (PPR) rankings “The Six Pack,” aka 6.0, we finally get our first taste of preseason action. The usage we saw in those preseason games has impacted the Top 150 as some players have risen and fallen up our rankings. The chart below shows the latest top 150 for PPR leagues based on a starting lineup of one quarterback, two running backs, three wide receivers, one tight end and a flex.
If your league has a different lineup build i.e. only two wide receivers, running backs might move up while wide receivers might fall in the top 150. Finally, we included five rankings’ risers from our previous rankings a few weeks ago. The average draft position (ADP) data is from our consensus ADP data tool on Razzball.com

Rankings Risers
Player: Rhamondre Stevenson
Updated Overall Ranking: 23 (ADP 31)
The addition of Zeke Elliott has Rhamondre Stevenson slipping down draft boards. However, Tony Pollard finished tied for 25th in value-based drafting last season while handling fewer carries than Zeke. We should expect Stevenson to be the lead back on the ground, so it’s clear Stevenson can return value at the 2/3 turn after finishing as the RB8 in 2022.
Player: D’Andre Swift
Updated Overall Ranking: 59 (ADP 76)
After sitting Kenny Gainwell in Week 1 of the preseason, D’Andre Swift got the starters treatment in Week 2. Head Coach Nick Sirianni finally unleashed Miles Sanders in 2022, giving him 259 carries. Prior to that season, Sanders failed to top 180. Call it a hunch, but Sirianni seems like the type of coach to just let his best players play, and I think Swift will push career highs in touches this season.
Player: Darren Waller
Updated Overall Ranking: 42 (ADP 57)
Darren Waller looked amazing in his first preseason action with Daniel Jones. Waller saw four targets securing 3-30 on his lone drive. Waller has already proven he can be a #1 option on a team. In 2020, Waller saw over 140 targets while finishing with 17.5 PPR points per game (PPG). The ability to be the #1 option on an improving passing game gives him elite upside, which is why we have him as a solid pick in Round 4.
Player: Dameon Pierce
Updated Overall Ranking: 46 (ADP 53)
It is fair to question Dameon Pierce’s outlook with a new coaching staff heading into 2023. However, after the second preseason game, Pierce operated as a three-down back and played on third downs. We might want to fade Pierce due to the offense, but do we really think it will be worse than 2022? In the 13 games where Pierce played, the Texans went 1-11-1. Vegas’ win totals have the Texans at 6.5 wins. That alone should give us optimism that the Texans should improve in 2023.
Player: Anthony Richardson
Updated Overall Ranking: 98 (ADP 111)
This is your yearly reminder that mobile quarterbacks like Anthony Richardson are a cheat code. Now that Richardson has been named the starter, he should be viewed as a starter in fantasy football as well. New Head Coach Shane Steichen just implemented an offense around a mobile quarterback in Jalen Hurts, so we know that the offense is perfect for Richardson’s skillset. If you’re worried about his passing efficiency, don’t be! Lamar Jackson, in the games he started as a rookie, was the QB5 from Weeks 11-17 while throwing for just 159 passing yards a game.
