# Nathan Jahnke: PFF's fantasy rankings place Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs as the No. 1 overall player, ahead of Bijan Robinson and Christian McCaffrey, and list Rams receiver Puka Nacua as the top wide receiver. **Claimed:** Aug 31, 2026 **Pundit:** Nathan Jahnke — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/pundits/nathan-jahnke **Outlet:** Pro Football Focus — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/outlets/pro-football-focus **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.pff.com/news/fantasy-football-cheat-sheet-printable-rankings-for-any-league-format/ 2 checkable claims — 1 fantasy ranking and 1 positional finishe — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet. It names 2 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room. > Jahmyr Gibbs takes the top spot *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Jahmyr Gibbs takes the top spot: The Detroit Lions running back ranks ahead of Bijan Robinson and Christian McCaffrey** - Kind: Fantasy Rankings - Verdict: not settled yet - **Puka Nacua to finish top 1 at his position, by fantasy points** - Kind: Positional Finishes · About: Puka Nacua, Los Angeles Rams - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Puka Nacua — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/players/puka-nacua - Los Angeles Rams — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/rams ## What others said about the same people - Nick Shook on Aaron Donald: Shook unveiled his first NFL power rankings of the year, putting the Rams first, the Broncos second and the defending champion Seahawks only third, with the Dolphins last. — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/opinions/ea18c6ec-7662-4e66-91ed-4d0ef9d7d97d (scored 100) - Jared Dubin on Los Angeles Rams: Dubin picks the Rams, Texans, Ravens, Bengals, Packers, Cowboys and Broncos in Week 1 with exact scores, and says the Rams are his pick to win the Super Bowl this season. — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/opinions/5017ce6e-d3fa-471a-bcf6-b9834182fded (scored 26.19) - Jordan Dajani on Los Angeles Rams: Dajani picks the Rams over the 49ers, Texans over Bills, Ravens over Colts, Bengals over Buccaneers, Vikings over Packers, Cowboys over Giants and Broncos over Chiefs in Week 1, with exact scores.
