The Jets aren’t the only team that had a Week 5 bye to jump back into the top 10. Carolina, despite a trip to Seattle to face the Seahawks, also stand strong at No. 8. If these D/STs were dropped last week, now’s the time to grab them off the waiver wire. There are plenty of other sleepers and streaming options, so let’s take a look at the full fantasy football defense rankings for Week 6....
Of course, there are still some injury concerns this week, as George Kittle and the aforementioned Kroft both got banged up in their respective matchups last week. Both seem to be okay, but given the shaky status of the TE position, their injuries will need to be monitored closely. Week 6 Rankings:Quarterback | Running Back | Wide Receiver | D/ST | Kicker If you’re looking for streamers – and odds are, you are at this point in the season – there are a few top options this week....
Usually, I go with a cash game approach to finding value plays, and many times you don’t need to overthink rostering value plays in tournaments as long as you look to diversify your lineup in other areas. Be sure to check out the RotoQL Trending Players Tool to quickly identify who the top value plays are each week. As always, remember this article should just be part of your research in deciding your Week 6 DFS picks....

We only have one game this week with an over/under currently sitting over 50 points, with the Rams-49ers NFC West battle checking in at 53.

MORE WEEK 7 RANKINGS: QB | RB | WR | DEF | K FIVE STAR 1. Julius Thomas, Broncos vs. 49ers 2. Rob Gronkowski, Patriots vs. Jets FOUR STAR 3. Greg Olsen, Panthers @ Packers Jordan Cameron, Browns @ Jaguars. Cameron only had five targets last week, but one went for a 51-yard touchdown. It’s a little premature to say he’s “back,” but against the Jaguars, who have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points per game (FPPG) to TEs, Cameron just needs to be “kind of back....
The Fantasy Source staff has a new mascot, and his name is Scooter Gennett. You probably know Scooter as the guy who essentially took Rickie Weeks' job and Jean Segura's spot in the Brewers' batting order. If you own either of those players, you likely didn't do much analysis of Scooter's background – you merely cursed out Weeks or Segura for losing their spots to a guy named Scooter.

Weinstein, 70, who is already serving a 23-year prison sentence in New York for sexual assault, was found guilty on three criminal charges, including rape, forced oral copulation and another sexual misconduct count involving an Italian model who said Weinstein showed up to her hotel room in 2013 uninvited, according to the Associated Press (AP). The jury was unable to reach a verdict on several other counts Weinstein faced in California, however, including charges relating to the wife of state Governor Gavin Newsom....
Wellograph might be smart to look at but it isn’t as clever smart as the Apple Watch. It has only the one app, and that’s focused on fitness. See Activity Tracker reviews. The watch tracks steps with its 9-axis pedometer – that’s more movement sensors than its rival wristband the Fitbit Surge. But it lacks the Fitbit’s altimeter that measures your stair or hill climbs. The stopwatch helps you track distance, speed, lap times, and movement intensity....
The 37-year-old southpaw returned to the ring after a seven month retirement to claim the WBO welterweight title by beating Jessie Vargas in Las Vegas earlier this month. “I think about it, I can still fight and my body is still okay so I decided to come back and I’m here, my journey is continued,” Pacquiao said in the Japanese capital. The southpaw has a 59-6-2 win-loss-draw record and is the winner of world titles in eight different weight divisions and the first sitting Senator to win a world boxing title....
The veteran Frenchman is ending a 22-year stay at Arsenal but he has yet to confirm his next move, while former player Mikel Arteta is reportedly the front-runner to succeed him at Emirates Stadium. Wenger, who signed off with a 1-0 win at Huddersfield Town on Sunday, says he is mulling over his options but is unlikely to stay in English football. “It will be very difficult for me [without Arsenal],” Wenger told the official Arsenal website....
Wenger was furious with the decision by referee Mike Dean to award a controversial late penalty for a Calum Chambers handball, Jay Rodriguez converting from 12 yards to earn a 1-1 draw for the Baggies. The Frenchman confronted Dean and his fellow officials on the pitch at the full-time whistle and also entered the referee’s dressing room without permission. After a hearing on Friday, the Football Association (FA) confirmed Wenger has been given a three-match ban, meaning he will miss Sunday’s FA Cup tie with Nottingham Forest, the first leg of Arsenal’s EFL Cup semi-final at Chelsea and a Premier League game at Bournemouth....
Though numbers might indicate that this is Wenger’s worst ever, no part of the blame can be attached to his summer signings. Santi Cazorla is easily amongst the top 3 midfielders in the league. Lukas Podolski and Olivier Giroud have been late bloomers and the duo have been highly influential in the recent weeks; but constant comparisons to a certain Dutchman are doing no good in lowering the pressure on the two....
With the fantasy playoffs starting next week, we have a ton of data, and the pecking order and positional breakdowns for both standard flex and superflex are becoming more clear, though matchups, health, and trends keep the individual players fluid from week-to-week. Last week, Zach Wilson and Gardner Minshew both were both inside the top 21 overall in scoring, which further proves the notion that QBs always have the most upside and safest floors....
With the fantasy playoffs starting, we have a ton of data, and the pecking order and positional breakdowns for both standard flex and superflex are becoming more clear, though matchups, health, and trends keep the individual players fluid from week-to-week. Last week, Davis Mills and Mike Glennon were both top-32 overall scorers, which further proves the notion that QBs always have the most upside and safest floors. If you’ve checked our rankings every week, we’ve harped on this all season long, but even struggling quarterbacks with worrisome matchups are in play over fringe starters....
