- Start Geno Smith: The Seattle Seahawks QB has played like the best quarterback in the NFL in recent weeks, and a good matchup helps him be a starting fantasy quarterback this week.
- Consider Taysom Hill: The New Orleans Saints offensive weapon moved up significantly in the rankings after his four-touchdown performance and is the best streaming option of the week.
- Nathan Jahnke’s fantasy rankings have been the most accurate in season rankings over the last four seasons combined, per FantasyPros‘ rankings accuracy competition.

These are my fantasy football rankings for Week 6 of the 2022 NFL season for PPR leagues, including some notes about players to help you make your weekly decisions. Rankings in other formats can be found here.
According to FantasyPros, my rankings were fifth-most accurate in 2021, second-most in 2020 and third-most in 2019. I was the only analyst to rank top-five all three seasons, making these the most consistently-accurate rankings of the last three seasons.
