D-Man's Week 5 Fantasy Football Sunday Report By Daniel Schreiber
Hello everyone, I'm Dan "D-Man" Schreiber from Empty The Bench Podcast Network. Based on my three fantasy football PPR teams, what players do I feel you should start and sit for the week 5 Sunday games? Besides my three teams, I will discuss other players to start and bench for the week 5 Sunday games for PPR leagues. I will also tell you what players should not start because of injuries.
Players based on my three fantasy football teams that I'm starting:
Team 1
QB: Trevor Lawrence
RB: Bijan Robinson, Travis Etienne, James Cook
WR: Amon-Ra St. Brown & Marquise Brown
TE: Dallas Goedert
DEF: Lions
K: Jake Moody
Team 2
QB: C.J. Stroud
RB: Derrick Henry & Dameon Pierce
WR: Amon-Ra St. Brown & Nico Collins
TE: Dallas Goedert
DEF: Texans
K: Jake Moody
Team 3
QB: Jared Goff
RB: Alvin Kamara
WR: Amon-Ra St. Brown, Chris Olave, Terry McLaurin
TE: Darren Waller
DEF: Bills
K: Tyler Bass
-I'm disappointed with QB Daniel Jones' performance so far this season. TE Darren Waller could be doing better in production. Jones has to utilize Waller more. He can be an excellent offensive weapon if he utilizes him more.
-I feel QB Trevor Lawrence is lacking in performance this season. Hopefully, he plays better.
Players based on my three fantasy football teams I'm benching and also because of bye weeks:
Team 1
RB: Isiah Pacheco & Tanks Bigsby
WR: Chris Godwin & Courtland Sutton
DEF: Browns
Team 2
QB: Justin Herbert
RB: Raheem Mostert, Jerome Ford, Tyjae Spears
DEF: Browns
Team 3
QB: Justin Herbert
RB: Austin Ekeler, Rhamondre Stevenson, Zack Moss
WR: Christian Kirk
-It's just a real disappointment that WR Courtland Sutton can't play better. The Broncos are horrible, and their poor coaching staff isn't helping either. It remains to be seen if the Broncos can turn their season around better.
Players besides my three fantasy football teams to start:
QB: Patrick Mahomes, Anthony Richardson, Brock Purdy
RB: Christian McCaffrey, Kyren Williams, James Connor
WR: Tyreek Hill, A.J. Brown, Brandon Aiyuk
TE: Sam LaPorta, Zach Ertz, Hunter Henry
DEF: Lions, 49ers, Cowboys
K: Harrison Butker, Brett Maher, Daniel Carlson
Players besides my three fantasy football teams to bench:
QB: Jordan Love, Joe Burrow, Russell Wilson
RB: Joe Mixon, Aaron Jones, Jonathan Taylor
WR: DeAndre Hopkins, George Pickens, Adam Thielen
TE: Kyle Pitts, Tyler Conklin, Chigoziem Okonkwo
DEF: Patriots, Broncos, Cardinals
K: Jason Sanders, Graham Gano, Eddy Pineiro
Here are players that may or may not start Sunday due to injuries:
QB: Josh Allen (Shoulder) & Derek Carr (Right Shoulder)
RB: Miles Sanders (Groin), Dameon Pierce (Knee), Rhamondre Stevenson (Thigh)
WR: Tee Higgins (Ribs), Amon-Ra St. Brown (Abdomen), Treylon Burks (Knee)
TE: Juwan Johnson (Calf) & Irv Smith Jr. (Hamstring)
I hope my advice helped you with your Week 5 Sunday PPR fantasy football league match-ups. Good Luck!
Yours truly,
