ADP represents Average Draft Positions in fantasy football drafts. It can serve as a useful draft prep tool in assessing players' values, and knowing what round / pick you might want to invest in them.
How is ADP Determined in Fantasy Football?
ADP is objective and merely identifies fantasy football players' consensus draft position in aggregate drafts. Each online platform, such as ESPN, Yahoo, NFL, CBS, Fantrax, RT Sports, Sleeper, and My Fantasy League will be able to provide the real-time ADP of each fantasy football player. Since each platform has access to data for all mock drafts and live drafts completed on their platform, the ADP will be a good measuring stick for when each player is drafted.
What is ADP in ESPN Fantasy Football?
ADP in ESPN fantasy football leagues means Average Draft Position. ESPN fantasy football is one of the most popular platforms to host fantasy leagues, so they are able to compile a lot of data from millions of drafts. The standard scoring for ESPN leagues is non-PPR, so keep that in mind when you are comparing ADP on ESPN vs other platforms.
What is ADP in Yahoo Fantasy Football?
ADP in Yahoo fantasy football leagues means Average Draft Position. Yahoo fantasy football is the second most popular platform to host fantasy leagues (and it is our personal favorite). The standard scoring for Yahoo fantasy football leagues is .5 PPR, so you may see WR's and TE's have a higher ADP compared to ESPN and other non-PPR platforms.
What is ADP in Sleeper Fantasy Football?
ADP in Sleeper fantasy football leagues means Average Draft Position. Sleeper fantasy football is quickly becoming one of the most popular platforms to host fantasy leagues, thanks to it's outstanding design, UX, and usability. Unlike ESPN and Yahoo, there is no "standard scoring" when it comes to PPR, so their ADP may be more unreliable based on your league settings.
What is ADP in MFL Fantasy Football?
ADP in MFL fantasy football leagues means Average Draft Position. MFL fantasy football is one of the most customizable fantasy football platforms, though it's UX and design are, in all honesty, terrible. The Scott Fish Bowl tournament and many other industry leagues are hosted on MFL. Similar to Sleeper, there is no "standard scoring" when it comes to PPR, so bear that in mind.
