Chris Dell is a former sports writer and news editor - most recently with The New York Times and the New York Daily News - and holds an M.A. in Entrepreneurial Journalism from the City University of New York. Chris left the journalism world in 2013 to launch Go Baller Media, a mobile app-turned-media agency with the funding of Cleveland Cavaliers / Quicken Loans owner Dan Gilbert. His specialty is fantasy football, where he grinds out weekly rankings, projections and NFL player props for the Betting Predators podcast and website. Chris' weekly fantasy rankings here below will be updated on Wednesday night, Friday night and Sunday morning, and a few times in between. These specific rankings are based on 1/2 PPR (0.5 points per reception) scoring formats, but they can also be adjusted to Standard and full-point PPR.

Note: "ECR" stands for Expert Consensus Rankings, which is the average of all analyst ranks throughout the fantasy football industry. The "Vs. ECR" category on the right will show you how far off / different that Chris' rankings are from the consensus. Follow Chris on Twitter @MaddJournalist for more fantasy news & analysis:
