This article is part of our NFL Observations series.

This is an overall list for 12-team PPR leagues as of August 4, 2020. For rankings updated multiple times per day, click here.

Note: Rankings are real, but comments, some of which are tasteless, are not meant to be taken seriously.

Warning: many, if not most, are stupid, though it can't be worse than last year's.
