There is a color scale to illustrate the difference in receptions per game and points per game amongst players. It shows how many points each player scored in PPR, half-PPR, and the scoring difference. PPR Rankingsīelow are the top-36 RBs of receptions per game in 2020. Tight Ends continue to be inconsistent, but the ones that get more targets and receptions have more value without needing to score a touchdown to help your team win its fantasy week. Slot receivers that get a lot of catches have more value, even if they do not turn that into a lot of yards. Remember, six reception is the equivalent of one touchdown. Wide receivers that only see a few targets per game and get a couple of receptions are less valuable because they are touchdown-dependent. Running backs that are not emphasized in the passing game fall behind in this scoring setting. Elite RBs and elite WRs will continue to be featured in their team’s offense and thus will produce, and the ones that have more receptions will separate themselves from the rest even more. Simply, the impact on player value is the opposite of non-PPR scoring. Some believe that PPR tips the balance to favor WRs too much now, which is why half-PPR has been a favored neutral scoring setting to appease both sides. Nowadays, there are only a few workhorse-RBs and a lot more pass-catching RBs, and NFL offenses pass more now too.

Then some leagues adjusted the scoring to half-PPR or PPR, which added more value to pass-catching RBs and WRs. If you were fortunate enough to have a top pick then you typically dominated that season. Several years ago fantasy football was dominated by workhorse running backs that carried the ball 20+ times a game and scored a lot of touchdowns. 5 points for every reception and PPR is when a player receives one point for every reception.
