Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb faces the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles in Week 1. / Cara Owsley/The Enquirer / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images
The 2025 NFL season is here!
That means fantasy managers will be checking out the first week of matchups as they start down the road to a league championship! To help you get down that path and reach the ultimate goal, here’s my positional and FLEX PPR player rankings for Week 1.
There aren't many surprises, especially at the “onesie” positions, because the opening week is not the time to “get cute.” Instead, start the players you drafted to be your starters. Don't over think it. We have a lot to learn in the next month, so use your obvious player investments. For those who need help making decisions between players with similar value, I’m here for you!
Good luck everyone and let's go get that 'chip together!
