My extremely early 2021 Redraft Rankings /a thread
1.01 - Christian McCaffery
CMC is currently the 137th ranked fantasy player in any of the three skill positions, due obviously to his injury. CMC still put up .53 FPTS per snap good for 8th among all running backs.

1.02 - Dalvin Cook
Through wk 14 Cook is the 3rd best skill position player in fantasy at 294 points. Arguably one of the most explosive players in football and is signed long term in Min, the touches are all his.

1.03 - Derrick Henry
I was bullish on Henry leading into 2020. I was wrong, made a trade for him mid-way through the year and its likely going to win me a championship this year. I still like Darryton Evans, but the ball is still Henry's until further notice.

1.04 - Saquon Barkley
Many may question this over Chubb or Kamara because we haven't seen Barkley truly run the rock in what seems like two years. However, there is no denying his talent, the Giants offensive line should get better and Joe Judge is coaching this team well.

1.05 - Nick Chubb
Top flight RBs are a must have early in the draft and Chubb has reached that status. He is ahead of McCaffery in FPTS per snap this year and would be on pace for roughly 250 points if he played the full year. That would be 6th among skill positions.

1.06 - Alvin Kamara
This was tough as Kamara currently sits as the #1 Non-QB Fantasy player in PPR leagues. However, with Taysom HIll at QB he is 36th. Could Brees retire? If he does, does Taysom take over full time? Do they bring someone else in? For now I'll bet Brees in 2021

1.07 - Davante Adams
4th in rec, 1st in TDs, 6th in Yards in an offense that is fully focused on him. Adams is an absolute stud with a level of consistency we have seen from some of the best to ever do it. Adams can be interchangeable with Tyreek but is my first WR in 2021.

1.08 - Tyreek Hill
Adams started the run on WR in the first round and Hill continues it. Hill is tied with Adams for TDs and 4th in yards. What sets him apart is his #2 rank in rush yards and 1-T in rushing TDs for WRs. His lack of receptions (only 77; 12th) puts him 1.08

1.09 - Calvin Ridley
This might be the surprise of the list for you but hear me out. Ridley is the 8th best fantasy receiver playing in less games in all but 1 WR above him and has more FPTS per snap than all but 2 above him. Ridley is only getting better.

1.10 - DK Metcalf
The new Megatron, Metcalf continues the run on WRs. Metcalf is 3rd in fantasy points among WRs, 5th in TDs and 1st in yards. However like Hill his lack of receptions (only 69 so far) drops him a bit for me in redraft. (Dynasty is a different story).

1.11 - Travis Kelce
If you are unable to grab one of the top WRs there is nothing stopping you from taking a TE who is 3rd in fantasy points for all pass catchers. He is 5th in receptions, 1st in yards and 5-T in TDs. Even though he is getting older nothing seems to stop him.

1.12 - Ezekiel Elliot
I am not ready to write off Elliot yet. Zeke was the 2nd best fantasy RB until losing Dak to injury and hasn't been the same since. Elliot also lost every single starting OL from a year ago and with the 32nd ranked defense has been fighting game script too.

It was hard figuring out who is top-12. This list doesn't include Michael Thomas who may lose Brees in 21, or Diggs who has 100 receptions through 13 games, or Keenan Allen.
Am I crazy? Am I just right? Let me hear your thoughts on the first round next year.
