With this information, we can get a better sense of changes in the collective perceptions of fantasy football owners (mock drafters); in essence, it's a version of fantasy stock up/down for players. If a player is moving up the ADP chart, it may lead us to using a higher pick than his current ADP to make sure we secure a targeted player.
Of course, a player's ADP (and movement) is just one (small) piece in determining who to draft and our strategy used to assemble a fantasy roster.
For purposes of our weekly comparison(s), we use ADP data from 12-team mock drafts from Fantasy Football Calculator:
| Biggest Risers (Absolute Terms) | ||
| Pos. | Player | ADP change |
|---|---|---|
| QB | Jay Cutler, Miami Dolphins | -9.3 (163.8 on 8/20; 154.5 on 8/27) |
| RB | Rex Burkhead, New England Patriots | -25.7 (149.5 on 8/20; 123.8 on 8/27) |
| WR | Cooper Kupp, Los Angeles Rams | -22.0 (160.3 on 8/20; 138.3 on 8/27) |
| TE | Antonio Gates, Los Angeles Chargers | -9.8 (157.7 on 8/20; 147.9 on 8/27) |
[Note: Negative numbers mean the player's ADP is improving (i.e., being drafted earlier) and vice versa.]
