Point-per-reception (PPR) leagues are to the fantasy world what Michelle Williams was to Destiny's Child - worth the time to look into, but often swept under the rug because of the Beyonces (standard format leagues) and Kelly Rowlands (auction leagues) of the world. And just like you can't look at Williams' accomplishments the same way that you can Mrs. Jay-Z's, the idea that all leagues and drafts can be approached the same way is certifiably false. It just doesn't work that way. I mean, Williams is an actress, successful gospel singer, and... sorry, forgot where I was for a second. PPR leagues are absolutely worth your time; you just have to approach them with a separate set of drafting rules. If you're not prepared for a world where Fantasy Draft Kit, with a standard 10-team league and one RB/WR/TE flex position.

4 Fantasy PPR League Standouts for 2012

Jessie James. Decker grew up in Cold Spring, Minnesota, home of the Cold Spring Brewing Company. And oh yeah, he led the Broncos with 95 targets as a rookie even with taken lightly.

Who Wants To Be A Millionaire and all, we like our trivia questions here at numberFire. So let me put on my best Regis Philbin impersonation and give you an easy $100-type question right here.

Question: Jimmy Graham was first among tight ends with 149 targets in 2011. Who was second with 126 targets?
A. Antonio Gates
B. Brandon Pettigrew
C. Rob Gronkowski
D. Jason Witten

C would be the easy answer, right? Well, I guess it could be A, considering how well Gates has done. It might even be D, considering how injury prone the Cowboys receivers were last season. But it couldn't be B. Never B. Ahh, but as you may have guessed considering the bold text up there, it is indeed Mr. Pettigrew. Two targets ahead of Gronk's 124, Pettigrew developed into a favorite target for Matthew Stafford last season, finishing a surprising eighth in the entire NFL with 83 catches. A lot of his eventual value will depend on Stafford's health, but numberFire projects him to get a high reception total again (74.8), which would make him an incredible option past the top two guys at TE.
