Alright, so today I decided to dive into the world of Fantasy Football ADP. I’ve played fantasy football for years, but I’ve never really paid super close attention to ADP until now. It’s basically a list showing where players are getting drafted, on average, in most leagues.
First, I started by opening up my go-to fantasy football website. You know, the one everyone uses. I clicked on their “Draft” section and then found the “ADP” tab. Pretty simple so far.
Then, I started scrolling. Man, there’s a lot of data! It’s basically a giant list of players, ordered from the highest ADP (usually the top-tier guys) to the lowest (players you’ve probably never heard of).
I started by looking some players.
- Quarterbacks I saw the usual suspects at the top. Mahomes, Allen, those guys. But I was curious to see where some of the mid-tier QBs were going. Guys like, say, Tua Tagovailoa or Kirk Cousins.
- Running Backs This is where ADP gets really interesting. Running backs are so valuable, and their ADP can fluctuate wildly. I noticed that some guys I thought were going to be drafted higher were actually slipping a bit. Potential steals!
- Wide Receivers Similar to running backs, the wide receiver ADP helps you see which receivers are being hyped up and which ones are being overlooked.
- Tight Ends Let’s be honest, after the top few tight ends, it’s a crapshoot. But ADP can help you find some potential sleepers late in the draft.
After I spent a good hour just browsing the list, I started to think about how I could actually use this information. I figure it will help to get an idea of some sleeper players. I want to know player’s general draft range.
So, that was my deep dive into Fantasy Football ADP. It’s definitely something I’ll be paying more attention to this year. Hopefully, it’ll help me crush my league! Wish me luck!
