Fantasy football is all about fun, competition and camaraderie, but it's also another way to appreciate the best of the best in the NFL. For more than three decades, ESPN Fantasy has been here with you, celebrating peak performers and magical moments.
Presenting the ESPN Fantasy Football Hall of Fame, which honors the best players and acknowledges the most memorable moments since the advent of our game in 1995, the first year fantasy football was available on ESPN.com.

Class of 2026 Week 1 Inductee: Tom Brady
5,944.36 fantasy points
89,214 passing yards, 649 passing TDs, 28 rushing TDs
The "G.O.A.T.," Brady scored more fantasy points -- nearly 6,000! -- than anyone in history. He was a dominating postseason performer on the gridiron, with seven Super Bowl wins including five MVP awards in those victories, but in fantasy football, he was renowned for his consistency. Brady scored at least 25 fantasy points in a game 66 times and at least 250 in a season 15 times, both NFL records, and between 2001-22 he made a record 333 starts. Like a fine wine, Brady only got better with age. His 1,825.18 fantasy points scored after turning 40 years old are more than double the next-closest player, and represent 31% of his career total.
Tom Brady will be inducted on Sunday during "Fantasy Focus Countdown," 10 a.m. ET on ESPN2. Tune in each week through Week 16 as we reveal the entire inaugural class.
