What was that stat line actually worth?

Fantasy points for typical stat lines

Standard scoring: 1 point per 25 passing yards, 1 per 10 rushing or receiving yards, 4 per passing touchdown, 6 per rushing or receiving touchdown, minus 2 for an interception or lost fumble.

The last two rows are the same performance in two formats: full PPR adds 8 points for the receptions alone. This is why receiving backs and slot receivers are valued so differently across league types.

Why PPR changes everything

In standard scoring a receiver is paid only for yards and touchdowns, so a 10-catch, 60-yard game is worth just 6 points. Add a full point per reception and the same game becomes 16 — which is why possession receivers and pass-catching backs are drafted far higher in PPR leagues.

The 25-yard passing rule

Passing yards score at one point per 25 while rushing and receiving yards score at one per 10. That 2.5x discount is deliberate: quarterbacks accumulate far more yardage than any other position, and without it no other position would ever be worth a roster spot.

Frequently asked questions

A WR caught 8 passes for 95 yards and a TD in full PPR — how many points?

8 receptions (8 pts) + 95 yards (9.5 pts) + 1 TD (6 pts) = 23.5 fantasy points. In standard (non-PPR) scoring, the same line would be only 15.5 points — the 8 receptions add nothing.

How is half-PPR different from full PPR?

In half-PPR, each reception is worth 0.5 points instead of 1.0. That same 8-catch game adds 4 points instead of 8. Half-PPR is a compromise that still rewards receptions but doesn't make high-volume, low-yardage receivers as dominant.

Why are passing touchdowns worth 4 points instead of 6?

QBs throw far more TDs than any other position scores, so the discount prevents them from dominating fantasy scoring. Some leagues use 6-point passing TDs, which makes elite QBs significantly more valuable and changes draft strategy.
