Frozen at Week 1 kickoff — Wed, Sep 9, 2026, 8:20 PM ET. 2026 drafts are done: this board stays as it was at kickoff so it can be scored. For this week use the weekly rankings; for the rest of the year, rest of season. Back-filled Sep 29 with draft-time information only.
Frozen · version keptTrey McBride is our TE1 for 2026 PPR drafts, ahead of Brock Bowers and George Kittle. The biggest value against ADP in the top 36 is George Kittle (#3, ADP 109.1); the biggest gap the other way is Isaiah Likely (#31, ADP 135.3).

HowFill all 12 teams’ starting seats by projected season points, give the 12 flex seats to the best RB/WR/TE left, and the next player at each position is replacement. Kickers and defenses are measured against the weekly streaming level instead — the best matchup left on waivers each week (8.6 ppg for a kicker, 9.61 ppg for a defense), because in a league with waivers that is what an unrostered kicker is worth. VORP = season points − that level. Your league differs? The draft room measures it for your rules.
