Way Too Early Fantasy Football Rankings 2023

A lot of people think it’s crazy to draft right now.
After all, we’re 140 days away from Week 1 of the 2023 NFL season.
We don’t know bye weeks, depth charts, or rookie landing spots.
And still – way too early fantasy football rankings serve a purpose.
Today.
In fact, Underdog Fantasy launched 2023 drafts months ago. So did our friends at the FFPC.
Now, it’s time for a launch of our own.
