1. Andrew
I'm not sure, but I feel like this is the first time Andrew has ever been #1 in PR. The current All-Play leader at 27-6 (WOW!), Andrew fell to 2-1 last week despite posting the second highest score. The bench is a little thin and Le'Veon Bell could turn James Conner back into a pumpkin, but for the time being this is the best team in the league.
2. Dave
Alex Smith is on BYE this week which means Dave will start Sam Darnold against the Jacksonville Defense. As bad as a matchup that is, Dave can feel good about Kirk Cousins put up 300+ last night. Going forward, it sounds like Devonta Freeman is on track to return next week.
3. Jason
Sitting alone at the top of the standings, Jason rosters only three players ranked in top 10 at their respective positions. That's about as negative as you can get with this team, unless you want to mention every player on this roster is due for a serious injury in the next 2-3 weeks. I should also note that Mark Ingram is due to return this week or next (for whatever that's worth).
4. Mitch / Jesse
Any team rostering Patrick Mahomes can be ranked no lower than 4 in the PR. Our WRs are a mess, but if Fournette starts playing and Carson Wentz gets hot the Co-Bones will never lose another game. Sony Michel is the last man standing in the Pats backfield!
5. Ryan
Ryan did an amazing job with last week's Power Rankings, something not overlooked in this week's rankings. As for his team, well I'm not overly impressed right now. This team is loaded with contributors but with few stars, picking a starting lineup is going to be maddening for Ryan.
6. Mike
Strong depth helped Mike overcome injuries to McCoy and Ajai in Week 2. An injury to Rodgers would sink this team, but if Rodgers and others can stay healthy Mike looks like a lock for the playoffs.
7. Cha
Baker Mayfield taking over the starting QB spot in Cleveland could provide a huge boost for a team that previously had no option but to start Dak Prescott. The Hopkins, OBJ tandem continues to look great on paper but has led to few points. If those two get going, look out.
8. Justin
Justin should be ranked higher. Fitz continued his streak of 400 Yard games but with Jameis back it may be only a matter of time before Justin is looking for QB2 help. On the positive, OJ Howard looks like an absolute steal at $1 and rookie Kerryon Johnson is in line to take the lead back role in Detroit.
9. Tim
This feels a little low for a team with a good amount of talent. Tim is loaded at WR and QB but the other positions need some help. Alfred Morris continues to see his workload fade and the other RBs, aside from Hunt, are also backups. If Calvin Ridley continues to put up starter numbers, Tim could move a WR for some RB help and make a playoff push.
10. Drew
Rough week for Drew, who lost Jimmy G and Rex Burkhead to season ending injuries. Needing a QB2, Drew traded his only starting RB for Blake Bortles. It's going to be an uphill battle to stay out of the #12 spot in the standings.
11. Eric
Our only winless team, Eric has no one to blame but himself for his most recent loss. After finally filling his TE slot with a real starting TE, Eric decided THIS was the week he would start DeSean Jackson. Jackson of course had a very DeSean Jackson game (3/37) while Gio Bernard sat on Eric's bench with 146 points.
12. Taylor
With McCaffery on BYE and the Vikings D/ST putting up -90 points on TNF, Taylor is behind the eight ball early in Week 4. McCaffery's absence means Taylor will be forced to start BOTH Denver running backs. At some point Taylor has to consider moving Le'Veon Bell to a contender for some more immediate help.
