Quarterbacks

Baker Mayfield, CLE – Mayfield (50% owned) completed 23-of-32 passes for 305 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 47-42 loss to the Chargers. He added eight yards on two carries.

Carson Wentz, IND – UPDATE: Wentz (7-10% owned) seems to be recovered from his double ankle issues and looked sharp for most of Monday night, completing 25 of 35 passes for 402-2-0 in the 31-25 overtime loss to the Ravens. He also was sacked twice and lost a fumble, but gets a favorable matchup in Week 6 vs. HOU.

Davis Mills, HOU – Mills (0-1% owned) broke out in a big way Sunday for 312-3-0, and while this one week doesn’t mean he’s a must-add, it does give the Texans’ offense some life – and Mills some confidence – heading into a Week 6 matchup against the Colts.

Other QBs to consider: Trevor Lawrence (40-45%), Teddy Bridgewater (20-25%), Jacoby Brissett (2-3%), Geno Smith (0-1%)

UPDATE:

Daniel Jones, NYG – Unfortunately, Jones has a concussion. He’s subject to league protocols for head injuries and will likely yield Week 6 quarterback duties to journeyman Mike Glennon.

Mac Jones, NE – Jones was relatively efficient with his 231-1-1 passing line in Sunday’s win over the Texans, but he’s not been unleashed and has yet to top 300 passing yards in a game.

Taylor Heinicke, WAS – Heinicke couldn’t get it done from a fantasy or real-life perspective Sunday, completing just 20-of-41 passes for 248 yards with zero TDs and two INTs in the loss to the Saints. He added 40 yards on five carries and should be a much better option next week against a bad Chiefs defense.

Running Backs

Devontae Booker, NYG – Booker (about 5% owned) will be the hot waiver wire RB pickup this week and Saquon Barkley sprained his ankle in Week 5 and looks likely to miss a few games. Booker rushed 16 times for 42 yards and a TD and hauled in three of four targets for 16 yards and another score in the 44-20 loss to the Cowboys on Sunday.

Darrel Williams, KC – UPDATE: Williams (12-15% owned) is in line for a starting role after the news that Clyde Edwards-Helaire (sprained MCL) will miss a few weeks. Williams is a capable veteran who will serve as lead back, with Jerick McKinnon as change-of-pace. The Chiefs have a favorable matchup against Washington in Week 6.

Giovani Bernard, TB – He’s deep-league PPR only and won’t get a huge workload going forward unless Ronald Jones or Leonard Fournette gets injured, but Bernard (10-15% owned) had some big plays in his return with four carries for 21 yards and 2-14-1 receiving.

Ty Johnson, NYJ – The Jets RB situation is a weird one, but Johnson got some red zone touches (four rushes for 12 yards and a TD on the game) and added two receptions for 22 yards. He’s a fringe RB4/5 with some upside if they have injuries in the backfield.

Other RBs to consider: David Johnson (35-40%), Rhamondre Stevenson (7-10%), Khalil Herbert (5%), Jerick McKinnon (0-1%)

UPDATE:

Damien Williams, CHI – Williams was a no-brainer add for Week 5, finishing with 16 carries for 65 yards and a TD, adding 2-20-0 on Sunday. Williams should remain usable as long as David Montgomery is out, but he did yield a few carries to rookie Khalil Herbert.

Samaje Perine, CIN – Joe Mixon was active on Sunday but Perine still saw a lot of work, rushing 11 times for 59 yards and hauling in four of five targets for 24 yards and a TD in the loss to the Packers. He landed on the Covid-19 list on Monday.

AJ Dillon, GB – Owners who took a shot on Dillon (still just 55-60% rostered) this week were rewarded as the change-of-pace RB rushed eight times for 30 yards and caught all four of his targets for 49 yards and a TD during the overtime win against the Bengals.

Alex Collins, SEA – With Chris Carson Inactive, Collins rushed 15 times for 47 yards and secured 2-25-0 on three targets in the Seahawks’ 26-17 loss to the Rams on Thursday night. He’s probably just a handcuff with Carson expected back soon.

Brandon Bolden, NE – Bolden finished Sunday’s 25-22 win with 25 rushing yards on two carries and 4-6-0 receiving.

Wide Receivers / Tight Ends

TE David Njoku, CLE – Njoku (just 1-2% owned), led the Browns in catches, targets and receiving yards, hauling in all seven of his targets for 149 yards and a touchdown in Sunday’s 47-42 loss to the Chargers. He and Mayfield will try to keep it going against the undefeated Cardinals.

Chris Moore, HOU – Moore came out of nowhere after being elevated from the practice squad to record five receptions on five targets for 109 yards and a TD in Sunday's loss against the Patriots. Keep an eye on him moving forward.

Other WRs/TEs to consider: Mecole Hardman (40-45%), Rashod Bateman (20%), Amon-Ra St. Brown (5%), Rashard Higgins (0-1%), Chris Conley (0-1%)

UPDATE:

Jamison Crowder, NYJ – Crowder took a step back in Week 5 with just 4-24-0 on six targets. He’s a fringe WR4/5.

Darnell Mooney, CHI – Mooney caught 3-35-0 in the Bears’ 20-9 win over the Raiders on Sunday, which was dominated by ball control and solid D from Chicago.

TE Dawson Knox, BUF – Last week was probably your last opportunity to get Knox (70% owned) who caught three of four targets for 117 yards and a score in Sunday’s win over Kansas City.

Randall Cobb, GB – Cobb caught two of three targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 25-22 overtime win against the Bengals, but failed to reach the end zone. His value will be TD-dependent this season.

Kalif Raymond, DET – Raymond saw just two targets and did not have a catch during Sunday’s 19-17 loss to the Vikings.

TE C.J. Uzomah, CIN – Just 2-16-0 on two targets on Sunday for Uzomah, who took a back seat to the WRs in this one.
