Welcome back folks, and Happy Thanksgiving! As we move into Week 12 of the fantasy football season, no more teams are on bye anymore. The next two weeks will be a deal-breaker for a lot of fantasy football owners out there, determining if they are going to make a glorious playoff run or not. Setting optimal lineup is critical.
First of all, make sure you are adding or streaming the right players off the waiver wire to fix any lineup issues, or beef up your rosters. Then make sure that you are using our staff ranks below to set your optimal lineups.
With that being said, here are our Week 12 fantasy football PPR rankings by three of our lead columnists, Bill Dubiel, Pierre Camus and Nick Mariano. Be sure to also read about other rankings analysis and lineup prep columns for this week. Good luck RotoBallers.
Week 12 Fantasy Football Rankings (PPR)
Note that quarterbacks, defenses and kickers are all grouped separately towards the bottom. Each of those positions is ranked on their own. This is to allow owners to compare running backs, wide receivers and tight ends for their FLEX spot (without seeing QB, DEF, K mixed in).
