Fantasy football strategy, rankings, and podcasts

Clearly we love fantasy football, and it doesn't just stop once the regular season has concluded. There are a ton of fantasy leagues that you can still play right through the Super Bowl and if you do end up hopping aboard the fantasy train for one last ride, here are our rankings for the rest of the playoffs. Good luck! Pay attention to these rankings throughout the week, as they will continue to evolve based on the latest injury updates, news, and player/matchup analysis. Good luck in the Fantasy Playoffs and remember, you can tweet us @drinkfive with any of your lineup questions!

Week 4 is here and it's time to start dealing with more injuries and now bye weeks! The Carolina Panthers and Washington Redskins will be taking an early break this season, so there's plenty of fantasy players to be replaced. Rookies like Calvin Ridley and Sony Michel will find their way into many lineups this week. Good luck in Week 4 and remember, you can tweet us @drinkfive with any of your lineup questions!

Week 5 brings bye weeks for more teams and some trend information to think about. Guys like Kenyan Drake that many of us were high on before the season started have not performed consistently at a high level and those kinds of things are reflected in the rankings as we march onward into Fall. This week I'm wary of T.J. Yeldon, but bullish on Brandin Cooks, Will Fuller, and LeSean McCoy compared to other experts. Good luck in Week 5 and remember, you can tweet us @drinkfive with any of your lineup questions!

As we continue to take a look at trends and suffer through injuries, picking up valuable replacement/fill-in players to cover for bye weeks and long recovery times, it's important to strive for some consistency in fantasy scoring. Some of the guys I predict to have a successful week outside of the normal top group include: Andrew Luck, James White, Alfred Morris, John Brown, Corey Davis, Mike Williams, and Kyle Rudolph. Keep in mind also that Greg Olsen is coming back this week most likely. So scoop him up on your waiver wire if necessary. The Tight End position is very short on fantasy production this season. Good luck in Week 6 and remember, you can tweet us @drinkfive with any of your lineup questions!
