Welcome to the "Original" Dynasty Rankings Fantasy Football Blog

This blog was born out of a Dynasty Rankings thread originally begun in October, 2006 at the Footballguys.com message boards. The rankings in that thread and the ensuing wall-to-wall discussion of player values and dynasty league strategy took on a life of its own at over 275 pages and 700,000 page views. The result is what you see in the sidebar under "Updated Positional Rankings": a comprehensive ranking of dynasty league fantasy football players by position on a tiered, weighted scale. In the tradition of the original footballguys.com Dynasty Rankings thread, intelligent debate is welcome and encouraged.

The Giants don't have the best defense in the league?

I thought we were ranking dynasty fantasy football defenses, not NFL defenses.

I will take the Chargers collection of young talent AND playmakers plus the return ability of Sproles over the Giants in a dynasty fantasy football league any day.

Are you a Giants fan, Fred?

I was looking at it from a IDP Fantasy league point of view.
I just happen to have Eli and Ahmad and Wilson on my roster and Giants made me a few $ in the playoffs.

Sorry, Fred.

I have yet to get heavily into IDP, so this remains a basic defense/special teams ranking with no individual defenders.

Thanks for joining in.
