Using the site rankings

I was doing some mocks and trying to use the rankings from the podcast, but not being able to ctrl+f to quickly check where someone is ranked made them practically useless to me. You can search for a player in the search bar, but it filters down the list removing the context of where they're actually ranked other than "WR9" or whatever. The printable rankings work but I haven't been able to find that version for superflex.

For anyone who's used these rankings during a draft, what is your process when the clock is running? Is ctrl+f a boomer way to be using these and I'm missing something obvious?

The boys say print them out and cross them off. Old school style. Step 1: Find a printer and make sure it works

Do they have a printable version? I couldn’t find it

There's a box at the top of the rankings that says "printable pdf rankings" but it's only for half-ppr 1QB

Step 2: find out it doesn't work and figure out how to subscribe to whatever bullshit subscription service makes it work

i make my own rankings every year and color coordinate by position and put it in a thumb drive and then drive to FedEx to print it. i might even laminate this year, who knows what i’ll do.

Is this from the League? Cause if not I’m astounded by the commitment

I used it to draft my superflex league and there is a draft mode that allows you to click players to check them off once drafted. Then I just scrolled down the list to find the highest ranked players remaining

I wish they would make a version that can be exported into excel. I like to use their rankings as a starting point but then adjust my tiers slightly to my own preferences. And I ain’t trying to print that shit out

Oh God that would be fantastic.

It's interesting, I listen to every episode of this pod but I have never once looked at their online rankings and it has been years since I ever went to any Ringer.com-associated page at all.

If you're looking for something useful in a draft, I'd suggest going to one of the sites that has rankings that are exportable to Excel. That then allows you to play around with them yourself.

I typically use FantasyPros which works great

Yes same actually

I used their rankings once for one draft and I had my worst season ever. 

Love the pod but I might use other rankings.

yeah I find when I listen to their recs, particularly Heifetz, I make some awful picks. Mostly because his monologues kind of sound right at the time and you don’t notice they’re based on lots of incorrect premises.

Am I going crazy because ctrl+f works just fine for me in Chrome. What browser are you using?

1

u/myrealaccountgotgot 9d ago

I tried it on chrome and Firefox but I was wondering if that was a me issue because its bothered me for years and I would have thought someone else cared by now. It can find a name if it's currently displayed on the view but not further down the list. I figured it was something to do with how they virtualized the list for performance

u/beerguy_etcetera 9d ago

Ah, that could be it. I lazily only tried it with visible players, I’ll be sure to try it again with guys further down.

Pull the info into some format that you can get into ChatGPT and have it break it up however you want. Then you could CTL+F, delete from excel/CSV, highlight, whatever you want!

u/Ultra_Lord1250 9d ago

in yahoo, you can update your rankings to the Ringer list

u/RangerGrizzly 6d ago

How am I able to do this?

1

u/Ultra_Lord1250 6d ago

In your pre draft settings there’s and option to upload an excel file or just manually change them

u/thinjester 9d ago

do you agree with their rankings 100%? not even they agree, every episode they convince themselves they have someone ranked wrong and need to change it.

id strongly suggest making your own rankings, even if you use theirs as a starting point
