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 | Joe Flacco, Baltimore Ravens | -7.7 (168.7 on 8/13; 161.0 on 8/20) |
| RB | Darren McFadden, Dallas Cowboys | -37.9 (123.5 on 8/13; 85.6 on 8/20) |
| WR | Zay Jones, Buffalo Bills | -8.7 (143.0 on 8/13; 134.3 on 8/20) |
| TE | Zach Ertz, Philadelphia Eagles | -13.2 (120.4 on 8/13; 107.2 on 8/20) |
[Note: Negative numbers mean the player's ADP is improving (i.e., being drafted earlier) and vice versa.]
