Players — 2026 Week 1

Scoring: Full PPR · 6-pt pass TD

QB fantasy football rankings for Week 1, 2026: projected points with calibrated floor and ceiling ranges and boom/bust odds, sortable by any column.

This archived week lists every player we projected that week, whatever his team or status today.

Week 1: 23 of 37 QB with a recorded result finished inside their 80% range (62%).

This season through Week 1: 23 of 37 (62%).

An 80% range is meant to miss about one time in five, so a week near 80% is on target. Every played week is listed, the bad ones too.

Results as recorded on 2026-10-15 (UTC); an NFL stat correction can still move one.

This is a played week, shown for the record. This week's projections are for subscribers.

This is a played week, shown as it stood at each game's kickoff. Rest-of-season and season-ahead rankings are shown for the live week only: this page cannot yet show them as they stood that week, and today's would be a later ranking under this week's label.

About these numbers

What these columns mean

Team
— The club whose published depth chart listed the player in THAT week, read from the slate's own chart rather than from his club today — these boards can be archived weeks. “not listed” where that week's chart does not list him.
Mean
— The league-rules-aware fantasy-points mean. It already integrates over playing-time and matchup uncertainty, so it is not a best case.
Floor
— The 10th percentile of this player's projected points: 10% of simulated weeks come in below it. It is the lower edge of the calibrated 80% range.
Ceiling
— The 90th percentile: only 10% of simulated weeks come in above it. It is the upper edge of the same calibrated 80% range.
Result
— the fantasy points he actually scored that week, under the same scoring format as the projection, from his recorded stat line. A dash means no result is recorded for him: he did not play, or his stat line is missing a stat this format scores.
In range
— Landed when the result fell inside the printed Floor-to-Ceiling range (the 80% range), Missed when it fell outside. Each row is the projection on the board when his game kicked off, not a later update.
