If you’ve read any of our content, you know that the main premise of our content is rooted in assessing what an RB1* is based on historical data; the facts matter and arbitrary tiering of Fantasy Football running backs is, plainly, annoying. And if you haven’t read any of our content, do us a favor, start here and the rest of this article will make a lot more sense.

Below is a high-level breakdown of the floors and ceilings of both our season-long tiers and their corresponding weekly tiers based on how any given running back performed during that week. To be clear, a weekly score within an RB1* tier doesn’t make a Fantasy Football running back a de facto RB1*, but it does give us a uniform standard of measurement to assess season-long RB1* tiers, weekly performance RB1* tiers, and, what we’ll soon have content on, the season-long trends to justify confidence in a running back continuing to meet or even exceed their weekly RB1* performance(s). Without further ado, here’s the data below, and we’ll have weekly reviews all Fantasy Football RB1*s:
