Fantasy Football Rankings for Week 1

The 2026 NFL season is almost here and it's time to start tinkering with your fantasy football rosters going into Week 1. It was a wild offseason in which we welcomed a new rookie class, saw players switch teams via free agency and trades, and got the usual coaching carousel.

Now, the dust has settled and you've likely drafted your team (or are going to do so before the 2026 opener between the Seahawks and Patriots on Wednesday night). Below you can find our consensus rankings at each position from analysts Matt Harmon, Justin Boone, Joel Smyth, Scott Pianowski and Hayden Winks.
