These rankings are based on the standard PPR scoring system. For instance, QBs receive a point for every 25 yards passing and four points per touchdown pass.
Players get a point for every ten yards rushing and six points for a rushing touchdown. Receiving yardage is the exact same, as players get a point for every ten yards and six points for a receiving touchdowns.In addition to yardage points, all players in PPR Leagues get a point per reception, which is the main difference between PPR leagues and standard scoring leagues.
Some leagues also get bonus points for reaching 100 yards rushing, scoring long touchdowns or eclipsing 300 yards passing, these rankings will not reflect those types of scoring features. However, we will have analysis specific to those types of leagues in the future.
