Bye weeks are officially here, meaning fantasy managers may have to get creative with their lineups. If you have anyone from the Chargers, Eagles, Lions, or Titans on your fantasy team, make sure they're resting up on the bench this week. If you don't roster anyone from these four teams, it's business as usual.
As you prepare for the 5th full Sunday of NFL football, we've got you covered with everything you need to set your fantasy football lineups. We have everything from positional rankings to sleepers and busts. Be sure to check back in often as our rankings will be updated regularly until kickoff on Sunday.
