Each reception is worth one point. PPR is an abbreviation for "point per reception." It's as simple as it sounds: you score one point for every catch a player on your fantasy squad makes. Not all PPR leagues are made equal, though. Some leagues assign varying point values per reception, which might range from zero to one. Other formats award points for each yard gained through scrimmage plays only. Still others use a combination of methods to determine scoring. In addition to receiving points for receptions, most PPR leagues give players credit for any touchdowns caught during their respective games. The number-one receiver in a good offense will usually score at least once every other week, so looking at recent history can help you judge whether or not someone is a sure thing vs. more of a gamble. You can also search for players who run mostly short routes to see if they're likely to get the ball often inside the red zone; most top receivers over the past few years have been found pretty consistently across various types of offenses. PPR stands for Point Per Reception. It's very simple: you get one point for every reception made by a player on your team. Most points per game (PPG) leagues don't limit how many points you can get per quarter or per half, so long as you reach 100 total by the end of the season. Others include a yardage requirement for scores, such as 20 yards for touchdown catches.
