Fantasy: Wild Card Playoffs - Projections / Rankings

Down below are full player projections for each quarterback, running back, wide receiver, and tight end expected to participate in this weekend's Wild Card playoffs.

Also included are rankings for kicker and team defense.

The scoring is relatively standard (4 pts/Pass TD), but I used 0.5 PPR so as to cover both formats.
