The first round of bye weeks raises its ugly head as fantasy managers have to find a way to replace the likes of Justin Herbert, Kenneth Walker, DK Metcalf, Mike Evans and Amari Cooper in their lineups. Though it could be worse ...

Fantasy football rankings for Week 5 are based on the point-per-reception (PPR) scoring used in most seasonal and daily fantasy football formats. One point is awarded for every 10 rushing and receiving yards and one point for every 20 passing yards. Six points are awarded for touchdowns scored, four points for passing TDs and one point for receptions.

ON BYE: Cleveland Browns, Los Angeles Chargers, Seattle Seahawks, Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Rankings are compiled by Daniel Dobish, TheHuddle.com.
