Week Six Rankings
We have some major movers in week six with Brenden Oliver being the most notable. Other big movers included Andre Williams and Odell Beckham. But enough with the preview lets get to the rankings.
At running back Brenden Oliver is currently slotted in as an RB1 against a weak Raiders defense while Andre Williams is ranked 13th overall following the injury to Rashad Jennings. Both are very impressive backs that run with good power and are their teams bell-cows until the starters return from injury. LeSean McCoy is ranked first overall this week despite the horrible start to the season as he faces a Giants defense giving up 87.6 yards per game on the ground and a league worst 78.6 yards receiving to opposing running backs. Ronnie Hillman is a upside borderline RB2 following the injury to Montee Ball and Zac Stacy finds himself ranked as a low-end RB2 due to a tough matchup against the 49ers and ceding more workload than most thought he would coming into the season.
At wide receiver Odell Beckham is our biggest mover as he is a borderline WR2 against the Eagles and Vincent Jackson fresh off of a 12 target afternoon is a trending upward WR2 who is currently ranked 13th overall. Larry Fitzgerald is comfortably ranked as an WR2 with an easy date with Washington on the slate and news that Carson Palmer may return to the Cards certainly buoys his stock as well.
At tight end Larry Donnell falls a few spots due to the extra attention defense are paying to him and the lost targets with playmaker Odell Beckham back in the lineup for the Giants. Jordan Reed is expected back this week and immediately slides in as a TE1. Jordan Cameron finds himself ranked at eighth overall this week after a slow start to his season while Owen Daniels has creeped his way back into the TE1 conversation after seeing five plus targets four out of five weeks thus far this season.
At QB Jay Cutler is ranked as a top three option this week in what is expected to be a shootout against the Atlanta Falcons. Philip Rivers is currently ranked as our seventh overall option this week against the Raiders and has continued his strong play from 2013 and is currently a top-five overall fantasy QB.
Without further adieu here are our constantly updated rankings for week six of the fantasy football season:
