2016 Fantasy Football PPR Rankings: Week 13 Quarterbacks

Find out which signal caller should be leading you into battle during a crucial Week 13.

Week 13 — the definition of Do or Die time. Whether you’re clawing your way into the playoffs, doing your damndest to secure a bye, or intent on spoiling a rival’s season to bring a shred of joy to your abysmal campaign, this will be the last hurrah for many. Make sure your lineup is set and you’re extending your fantasy year with the best rankings around. 

Tier 1 – Potential Top Scorers 

 

1) Drew Brees (NO) vs. Det – Even though I’d do whatever Brady asked of me (literally, anything), Brees still gets the #1 nod in Week 13. He’s been unstoppable all year, but especially at home, and now gets the hapless Detroit secondary to feast upon. Anything under 30 FPs would be a disappointment.

2) Tom Brady (NE) vs. LA –  No Gronk and Brees’ juiciness knock Brady from his usual throne, but his usual 300+ yards and 3 TDs are certainly attainable

3) Matt Ryan (ATL) vs. KC – We saw what the creature known as Siemian did (360 yards and 3 TDs). Fire up Ryan with confidence.

 

Tier 2 – Locked in QB1s

 

4) Aaron Rodgers (GB) vs. HOU

5) Andrew Luck (IND) @ NYJ

6) Ben Roethlisberger (PIT) vs. NYG

7) Philip Rivers (SD) vs. TB

Tier 2.5

 

8) Matthew Stafford (DET) @ NO

9) Derek Carr (OAK) vs. BUF

10) Dak Prescott (DAL) @ MIN  – At a certain point, you have to just forget about matchup and accept a guy as a true stud. Prescott hasn’t been below 18 FPs since Week 1, and has six straight of 20+. Hell, a tighter contest with Minnesota should only help him.

11) Colin Kaepernick (SF) @ CHI – Can’t believe “The Kneeler” has achieved locked-in QB1 status, but remember this is fantasy, not real life. He’s becoming more and more comfortable in Chip Kelly’s system by the week.

12) Kirk Cousins (WAS) @ ARI – Read Prescott, Dak.

Tier 3 – Low-end QB1s, High-end QB2s

 

Lots of quality QB options this week, with 18 very startable names. The drop off into the realm of terrors is quite steep, however…

 

13) Jameis Winston (TB) @ SD – This has the feel of a shoot out. Follow the points.

14) Russell Wilson (SEA) vs. CAR

15) Tyrod Taylor (BUF) @ OAK

16) Cam Newton (CAR) @ SEA

17) Eli Manning (NYG) @ PIT

18) Carson Palmer (ARI) vs. WAS

 

Tier 4 – Last possible starters

 

19) Matt Barkley (CHI) vs. SF

20) Alex Smith (KC) @ ATL

21) Ryan Fitzpatrick (NYJ) vs. IND

22) Andy Dalton (CIN) vs. PHI

23) Ryan Tannehill (MIA) @ BAL

 

 

Tier 5 – I know… Sad songs…

 

24) Blake Bortles (JAC) vs. DEN

25) Carson Wentz (PHI) @ CIN

26) Jared Goff (LA) @ NE

27) Trevor Siemian (DEN) @ JAC QUESTIONABLE

28) Joe Flacco (BAL) vs. MIA

29) Sam Bradford (MIN) vs. DAL

30) Brock Osweiler (HOU) @ GB
