METHODOLOGY
Rankings aggregate player-level PPR fantasy points from nfl_data_pyplay-by-play. Each game-week row for a player counts once against the defending team. “Avg PPR” is the mean PPR points per game-appearance allowed; lower = stingier defense. Exploit matchups flag upcoming games where the defense ranks 25th or worse (bottom 25%) against the given position group. Data covers 2025 regular season.
