Average Draft Position (ADP) Frequently Asked Questions

 

What is fantasy football Average Draft Position (ADP)?

ADP represents the Average Draft Position for players in a wide range of fantasy football drafts. It serves as a useful draft prep tool for understanding how players are valued.

How is a given player's Average Draft Position calculated?

The average value of each player's draft position is taken over a range of many drafts.

How is an Average Draft Position list most useful to fantasy managers?

With the knowledge of where players are going it is a bit easier to gauge when you should pull a trigger on a player, or knowing when you can hold off on a player. More to the point, it doesn't tell you when you have to draft a player; it helps you understand what range you'll need to select a player to ensure you can get him on your roster.

Should I be cautious when using Average Draft Position?

As MyFantasyLeague.com pointed out, you might see some results that at first don't make sense since dynasty leagues tend to draft earlier and players of interest do not always match up with traditional redraft leagues. In addition, some leagues have scoring systems that are very skewed towards awarding a lot more points to a certain position, which would entice owners to pick players in that position (like quarterback) first, rather than more traditional scoring system leagues. Remember, some of that can be avoided by selecting an ADP that's better suited for your league.
