Average Magazine Rankings - Running Backs
|
Quick Links: QB · RB · WR · TE · PK · Def
Below, you will find the average rankings from eleven popular fantasy football
magazines. You will also see the 'High' rank and 'Low' rank. We offer these compiled
magazine rankings as a guide, but obviously not to tell you what player to draft.
Instead, use these rankings as a tool to help you spy on the magazine drafters
in your league. Also, note that we do not tell you where a player is ranked in
a specific magazine as we feel it to be unethical.
If there is a player/team that you consider a sleeper, these rankings can help
you judge his proper draft position. If a player/team is highly rated by the
magazines, the average magazine drafter will likely take them early. Conversely,
if a player/team is rated low by the magazines, the average magazine drafter
will likely not take them early.
