Fantasy Football: Hayden Winks' notable rankings shifts after Week 1 of preseason

With Week 1 of preseason in the books, Hayden Winks lays out some key updates to his fantasy football draft rankings.

Fantasy Football: Hayden Winks' notable rankings shifts after Week 1 of preseason

Preseason Week 1 has brought about notable changes in fantasy football rankings. Jordyn Tyson is projected to be out for about seven games due to soft-tissue injuries in his lower half. This injury will likely impact his readiness and yardage in redraft leagues, placing him at 129th overall as WR54. The Saints are cautious with Tyson's return, potentially seeing him back in November or December.

In light of Tyson's absence, Chris Olave and George Kittle's positions have shifted. Olave, who was the WR7 on WR6 usage in PPR leagues last season, is now ranked as my WR12 and 25th overall player. Kittle, who was the TE15 on TE13 usage, is ranked as my TE15 and 152nd overall player. Both players are projected to improve under the Saints' new offensive system.

Breece Hall, who missed weeks due to a groin injury, can be minimally dropped at this point. With a near full month before the season starts, he is projected as my RB16 and 32nd overall player. Jeremy Love is at risk of missing the first weeks of the season due to a high-ankle sprain. If he returns in Week 3, he is projected as my RB13 and 26th overall player.
