As the weeks progress, the number of players that fantasy managers feel comfortable slotting in their starting lineups starts to dwindle. Heading into Week 6, some solid options remain at nearly every position, but it is likely we will have to pay up for them.

Week 6 Bye Weeks:

  • Kansas City Chiefs
  • Minnesota Vikings
  • Los Angeles Rams
  • Miami Dolphins

Before we dive into the players, just a few reminders about how the article is set up:

  • To be included as a potential add, a player must be rostered in 50% or less of ESPN or Yahoo leagues
  • To be mentioned as a potential drop, a player must be rostered in 50% or more of ESPN or Yahoo leagues
  • FAAB recommendations will be given, but also serve as tiers for leagues without FAAB budgets. The rationale behind FAAB recommendations is: If I had $1,000 in FAAB, what is the absolute most I’d be willing to spend on this player?
  • All positional rankings and statistics are taken from RotoViz’s Monday Review tool
