2017 NFL Rankings – Tight Ends, Team Defenses, And Kickers.. Oh My!
Chris Sweet - Fantasy Sports Analyst This will be the final part of our preliminary NFL Player Rankings for the preseason and we will be covering the last skill position of Tight End as well as the less glamorous positions of Kicker and Team Defense.

You are gonna see a lot of people going back towards the RB-RB drafting method this year, and I'm not ready to say that's an outright mistake, but I am expecting some letdowns this season. My favorite format is PPR so these rankings will be based on getting a point for each catch. The top 3 guys barring injury are in a clear tier of their own, and should be the top 3 picks in most drafts this
