Here’s what I got for you tonight:

  • Poll results: Most popular rankings

  • Fantasy Pros vs. Keep Trade Cut

  • 12 articles + videos we loved this week

  • Top 5 player insights

Giddy up.

The results are in: 53.3% of you are using Fantasy Pros (33.7%) or Keep Trade Cut (19.6%) as your preferred source of rankings.

Full results and breakdown of how to take advantage below:

Since the majority of you are referencing Fantasy Pros (FP) and KTC for your rankings, I figured it would be worth calling out the biggest discrepancies between the two platforms.

As of Monday, 6/16/25, there were 13 players in our top 100 consensus player rankings that had a difference of 24 spots or more between FP and KTC.

That’s a gap of 2+ rounds in 12-team startup player values, which is a BIG DEAL considering everyone in the top 100 is likely in most starting lineups.

Here are those 13 players with the biggest ranking difference:

Our take: One glaring takeaway from this chart is that KTC values younger players more highly than Fantasy Pros.

This isn’t true for all players necessarily, but it’s a clear trend among these 13 specific players. 

Here’s how I would use this info:

  • If I’m trying to BUY veterans, I’m referencing KTC rankings in my trade negotiations, since their player values seem lower there.

  • If I’m trying to SELL veterans, I’m going to highlight their high rankings on Fantasy Pros to maximize my return.

  • And vice versa for the rookies

IMPORTANT: This isn’t to say one of these rankings is better than the other. They’re both valuable (it’s a big reason why our consensus rankings look at 6 different sources combined).

The point is that there is an opportunity to use these discrepancies to your advantage with league mates who might be valuing one set of rankings more highly than others.

If you want to see discrepancies for ALL players across Fantasy Pros, KTC, and more sources, check out our consensus rankings below (updated every Monday).

Note: You might need to open these rankings in an incognito window or clear your cache to ensure you are seeing the most up-to-date rankings.
