Bye Week hell is upon us, which is doubly concerning when it’s win or go home for many fantasy owners. No one wants their lone source of excitement and joy stripped from their life, so make sure you lock up a win with the best PPR rankings in the business.
Tier 1 – Potential Top Scorers
1. Julio Jones (ATL) vs. GB
2. Mike Evans (TB) vs. OAK
3. A.J. Green (CIN) vs. WAS
Tier 2 – High End WR1s
4. Brandon Marshall (NYJ) @ CLE
5. T.Y. Hilton (IND) vs. KC
6. DeAndre Hopkins (HOU) vs. DET
7. Larry Fitzgerald (ARI) @ CAR
8. Amari Cooper (OAK) @ TB
Tier 3 – Low-end WR1s, High-End WR2s
9. Jordy Nelson (GB) @ ATL – Big bounce back week for Jordy, especially if Cobb doesn’t play. Also could be “Panic Button” time if he doesn’t explode.
10. Doug Baldwin (SEA) @ NO
11. Michael Crabtree (OAK) @ TB
12. Marvin Jones (DET) @ HOU
13. Randall Cobb (GB) QUESTIONABLE – Cobb’s been crushing, but suffered a hamstring tweak and now needs to be monitored. The other Packers’ wideouts would see a stock increase should he sit…We’ve actually never seen a Jordy-Davante combo, which is slightly intriguing.
Tier 4 – Solid WR2s
14. Demaryius Thomas (DEN) vs. SD
15. Dez Bryant (DAL) vs. PHI – The Return of the Dez, one of Week 8’s most intriguing, and crucial, story line. His health and chemistry with Dak will be highly important to watch.
16. Kelvin Benjamin (CAR) vs. ARI
17. Julian Edelman (NE) @ BUF
18. Emmanuel Sanders (DEN) vs. SD
19. Donte Moncrief (IND) vs. KC – If he’s playing you have to roll him out. Huge TD upside.
20. Brandin Cooks (NO) vs. SEA
21. Allen Robinson (JAC) @ TEN
22. Terrelle Pryor (CLE) vs. NYJ
23. Ty Montgomery (GB) @ ATL
Tier 5 -Mid-end WR2s, High-end WR3s
24. Will Fuller (HOU) vs. DET
25. Davante Adams (GB) @ ATL
26. Alshon Jeffery (CHI) vs. MIN
27. Jeremy Maclin (KC) @ IND
28. Golden Tate (DET) @ HOU
Tier 6 – Last decent flex plays
29. Jordan Matthews (PHI) @ DAL
30. Cameron Meredith (CHI) vs. MIN
31. Quincy Enunwa (NYJ) @ CLE
32. Michael Thomas (NO) vs. SEA
33. Jamison Crowder (WAS) @ CIN
34. DeSean Jackson (WAS) @ CIN
35. Willie Snead (NO) vs. SEA
36. Stefon Diggs (MIN) @ CHI
37. Chris Hogan (NE) @ BUF
38. Brandon LaFell (CIN) vs. WAS
39. Michael Floyd (ARI) @ CAR
Tier 7 – Save me from the nothing I’ve become
40. Cole Beasley (DAL) vs. PHI
41. Tyler Lockett (SEA) @ NO
42. Tyrell Williams (SD) @ DEN
43. Travis Benjamin (SD) @ DEN
44. Mohamed Sanu (ATL) vs. GB
45. Anquan Boldin (DET) @ HOU
46. Russell Shepard (TB) vs. OAK
47. Adam Humphries (TB) vs. OAK – It will once again be the Mike Evans show, but either of these two is worth a Hail Mary flier against such an abysmal defense.
48. John Brown (ARI) vs. CAR
49. Marquise Goodwin (BUF) vs. NE
50. Allen Hurns (JAC) @ TEN
