What are the tiered rankings and how do I use them?

Edited

Tiers take rankings to the next level. Tiers take players who we project to finish similar to each other into groups. Sometimes a player might be 6 or 7 spots behind another player when in reality they are just as good of a pick. To maximize the value of tiers, be sure to look ahead to other positions to see which tiers are running low on players and which ones have plenty left in the top tier available.
