Please, let there be no more rescheduling this season. My heart can’t take all the suspense. Thankfully, only one game was removed from the slate this weekend, and even as I write this, I’m enjoying the fourth-quarter action of Titans/Bills that hung in the balance heading into the weekend. Before I can safely reach for that next beer, let’s get into my Week 6 fantasy football rankings for standard scoring.
Say what?! Your fantasy football league isn’t using Fantrax this season? Unthinkable! Check out all the features Fantrax has to offer, and we think you’ll be singing a different tune for the coming season.
Week 6 Fantasy Football Rankings For Standard Scoring
The biggest item on the agenda for today’s rankings column, and the one we’ll go over together, is the devastating injury to Dak Prescott. In the aftermath of Dak’s injury, Ezekiel Elliot emerges as my RB1 in Week 6. Added emphasis on the running game should supply him with enough work to dominate his peers. Elsewhere, I haven’t completely sunk Dallas’ receiving options in my rankings. In Dak’s absence, Andy Dalton came off the bench and completed nine of 11 passes for 111 yards. Perhaps the biggest beneficiary of Dalton’s presence under center is Michael Gallup. He saw three of Dalton’s 11 attempts, and that was a refreshing change in opportunity share for the struggling receiver.
All of my rankings are updated before the weekend, so you’ll have plenty more to look at just before Sunday’s games. For now, enjoy my Week 6 rankings, and as always, feel free to drop me a comment if there’s anything you want to ask me.
