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.

Prater is second to Folk? I just checked my league standings, and Folk is 20th in average points per week. 6 FG's and 19 xp's is nice, but...

If anything, I'd put John Carney at numero uno. 12 FG's and 13 xp's, plus he's already had his bye week. Plus the Giants are playing solid offense this year, so he'll get his chances. Sure he's old, but he is certainly a LOT better than 32nd.
