Fantasy Football Rankings

Dynasty-league weekly fantasy football rankings, updated every Wednesday. Week 6 top QB, RB, WR and TE by projected half-PPR points, with injury news.

By Derek Sallis · October 14, 2026

Updated Wednesday, October 14, 2026. Week 6, half-PPR. This page is replaced every Wednesday and keeps the same address.

These are our weekly rankings: the quarterbacks, running backs, receivers and tight ends we expect to score the most half-PPR points this week. They come from the same weekly projections that power our start/sit tool. For long-term values, use the dynasty rankings.

Week 6 at a glance

Jayden Daniels leads the quarterbacks at 27.3, a number built on one game since his return, Javonte Williams leads the running backs at 20.5, Puka Nacua leads the receivers at 19.4, and Brock Bowers leads the tight ends at 19.7. Cincinnati, Detroit, Miami and Minnesota are on bye, so none of their players are listed.

The biggest risers from last week's projection are Javonte Williams (up 7.0), Mike Evans (up 4.8), Terry McLaurin (up 4.3) and C.J. Stroud (up 3.7). The biggest drops are Jaxon Smith-Njigba (down 5.5), Bo Nix (down 5.0), Matthew Stafford (down 4.8) and Davante Adams (down 4.4).

Injury watch

Lamar Jackson has a "real chance" to play at Cleveland, and our board lists him at zero until the injury report says otherwise. Caleb Williams is nearing a return and the Bears haven't committed. Michael Penix Jr. may play through a ribs injury, and Tua Tagovailoa starts if he can't. Saquon Barkley is week-to-week and Philadelphia is hopeful, while Houston's David Montgomery is week-to-week with a groin injury. Deebo Samuel is out.

How these rankings work

Each number is a projected half-PPR score for this week, built from recent usage, the matchup and injury status. A player tagged Questionable takes a 15% cut, and anyone ruled out shows zero. Players on bye aren't listed.

Past weeks

The dated posts keep each week's commentary: Week 6, Week 5, Week 4 and Week 2. For matchup notes, see Week 6 matchups.

Join the founding waitlist

Founding leagues lock in $2.00 per player, forever. Price rises to $3.00 once the founding cohort is full.

FAQ

How often are these rankings updated?
Every Wednesday, once the week's projections are set. Injury news can change a player's number later in the week, so check Friday's injury report before you set a lineup.
Are these dynasty or redraft rankings?
They're weekly rankings, which means this week's expected points, and they work in any format. For long-term player values, use the dynasty rankings or the Superflex board.
Where can I compare two players for this week?
The start/sit tool projects two to four names side by side, and the weekly projections table lists every player's floor, projection and ceiling.
