We are officially over a third through the NFL season, which is mildly depressing. Regardless of whether you’re trying to secure a round one bye or fight your way into the playoff picture, wins are more crucial now than ever. Make sure you’re lineup is set with The Wolf’s PPR Rankings.
Sunday Update – Jordan Reed has officially been ruled out for Week 6, and panic should be creeping in given his extensive concussion history.
Rob Gronkowski and Martellus Bennett are both expected to suit up despite thei questionable tags.
Note – Jordan Reed is being evaluated for a concussion; given his lengthy history with head issues, Reed should be considered highly questionable. I have him unranked as of now, but if he plays Reed will slide in around 6-7. Tyler Eifert is also doubtful and unranked here.
Tier 1 – Potential Top Scorers
The matchups are juicy for some of the top talents in the league, and I see five guys as realistic options to lead the position in fantasy scoring.
1. Greg Olsen (CAR) @ NO
2. Rob Gronkowski (NE) vs. CIN
3. Jimmy Graham (SEA) vs. ATL
Tier 1.5
4. Travis Kelce (KC) @ OAK
5. Delanie Walker (TEN) vs. CLE
6. Martellus Bennett (NE) vs. CIN
Tier 2 – TE1 Options
7. Coby Fleener (NO) vs CAR
8. Zach Miller (CHI) vs JAC
9. Julius Thomas (JAC) @ CHI
10. Dennis Pitta (BAL) @ NYG
11. Gary Barnidge (CLE) @ TEN
12. Zach Ertz (PHI) @ WAS
Tier 3 – Startable TE2s
13. Jason Witten (DAL) @ GB
14. Jesse James (PIT) @ MIA
15. Charles Clay (BUF) vs. SF
Clay and Richard Rodgers are some of my favorite “streaming” options for Week 6 given juicy matchups with San Fran (12th most points to TEs) and Dallas (4th most points to TEs).
16. Richard Rodgers (GB) vs. DAL
17. Hunter Henry (SD) vs. DEN
18. Dwayne Allen (IND) @ HOU
Tier 4 – Dog Mess
19. Lance Kendricks (LA) @ DET
20. Antonio Gates (SD) vs. DEN
21. Will Tye (NYG) vs. BAL
22. Vance McDonald (SF) @ BUF QUESTIONABLE
23. Virgil Green (DEN) @ SD QUESTIONABLE
