Fantasy Football Points Calculator
Turn any stat line into fantasy points for Standard, Half-PPR, and Full PPR at once — for offense, kickers, or defense. Match your league with standard, half-PPR and PPR scoring, and see exactly how much each reception is worth.
Example: a WR with 8 receptions, 110 receiving yards and 1 TD → Full PPR: 25.0.
- Standard17.0
- Half-PPR21.0
- Full PPR25.0

Points by format
How fantasy scoring works
Fantasy points are a weighted sum of real production — yards count a little, touchdowns count a lot, and turnovers cost you. The only thing that changes between Standard, Half-PPR, and Full PPR is how much a single reception is worth, which is why pass-catching running backs and high-volume receivers gain the most moving from Standard to PPR, while touchdown-dependent and pure-rushing players change the least.

These are the most common default settings (ESPN standard). ESPN, Yahoo, and Sleeper agree on nearly all offensive scoring; the biggest differences are kicker field-goal distance tiers and defensive points-allowed tiers. Always confirm against your own league's scoring page.
ESPN vs. Yahoo vs. Sleeper
This tool provides a fixed scoring baseline with Standard, Half-PPR or Full-PPR receptions and 4- or 6-point passing touchdowns. Kicker and defense weights are fixed; there are no platform presets, custom point weights or bonuses. Check your league rules before using the total.

Common mistakes
- Comparing a Standard-league projection to a PPR leaderboard — the same player looks very different depending on target volume.
- Forgetting your league's passing-TD value — some award 6 points instead of the 4-point default used here.
- Ignoring fumbles lost, which quietly erase a full rushing or receiving touchdown's worth of points.
- Assuming yards matter most — touchdowns and (in PPR) receptions usually drive the score far more than yardage.
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between Standard, Half-PPR, and Full PPR?
They differ only in how much a reception is worth: 0 points in Standard, 0.5 in Half-PPR, and 1 in Full PPR. Every other stat scores identically. PPR formats reward pass-catching backs and high-target receivers most.
Does this match my league platform?
There are no platform presets. Choose your reception and passing-touchdown settings, then check all other weights against your league. Kicker and defense weights are fixed. Custom weights and bonuses must be calculated separately.
Why is a passing touchdown only 4 points by default?
4 points per passing TD is the default on ESPN, Yahoo, and Sleeper, alongside 6 points for rushing and receiving TDs. Switch the Passing TD control to 6 if your league uses 6-point passing TDs.
How is kicker scoring calculated?
Field goals score by distance — 3 points for 0–39 yards, 4 for 40–49, and 5 for 50+ — extra points are worth 1, and a missed field goal is −1. These are the most common defaults; distance tiers vary slightly by platform.
How is defense (D/ST) scored?
Sacks are +1, interceptions and fumble recoveries +2, defensive or return touchdowns +6, safeties and blocked kicks +2, plus a points-allowed bonus: +10 for a shutout down to −5 for allowing 46+. Points-allowed tiers are the biggest source of platform variation.
Do 2-point conversions and bonuses count?
Two-point conversions are included (+2 each). Long-play and yardage bonuses (for example 300+ passing yards) vary too much by league to include by default — add them with the your league’s scoring settings outside this tool if your league awards them.
What's a good weekly fantasy point total?
As an informal community rule of thumb (not an official stat), a strong weekly QB1 is roughly 20+ points and a strong RB1/WR1 in PPR is roughly 15+. These vary by league and season — treat them as a gut-check, not a target.
