Underdog Playoff Best Ball Rankings
Underdog's playoff best ball content is live, and we have you covered.
Below are rankings for the contest.
In this format, you cannot simply play the best plays. Because... the vast majority of those plays will not play in the Super Bowl. And the Super Bowl operates as the final round of these best ball contests—where the top prizes are.
The structure of these tournaments makes it critical that you structure teams as coherent bets on specific outcomes... for how the playoff bracket shakes out. It's not just about picking the right players; it's also about picking the right teams.
So... please don't just draft off of these rankings verbatim. The instant you take a player, that shifts the value of the rest of the player pool, because you're implicitly betting on that player's team (and against their potential opponents) to make a deep playoff run.
If you're new to playoff best ball, I highly recommend you check out Sackreligious' guide to the format. He dives deep into the strategy and even if you're a playoff best ball junkie, it's worth a reread.
The Playoff Best Ball Sidekick is also live, which turns our static rankings into a dynamic rankings draft companion.
