Week 14is done, leaving only three weeks remaining in the 2020 NFL regular season. Every win is more important in trying to lock down division titles or wild-card berths to get into the playoffs, while every lo s furtherdashes those hopes.The postseason field expandingby one team each in the AFC and the NFC to a total of 14 has made more things interesting for the final threegames. Based on the current standings, here's an updated look at what each conference tournament would look like if the playoffs started now:WEEK 15: NFL standings for Week 14AFC playoff pictureWho would be in? 1. Kansas City Chiefs (12-1), champions, AFC West.The Chiefs, the reigning champs, are back where they belong, as the unquestioned top seed with likely MVP Patrick Mahomes.They clinched a playoff berth with
Matt Harvey Jersey theirwin over the Broncos in Week 13 and clinched another division title with a win over the Dolphins in Week 14. They can focus on the lone bye and home-field advantage after going up a game on the Steelers.Remaining schedule:at NO, vs. ATL, vs. LAC2. Pittsburgh Steelers (11-2), first place, AFC North. The Steelers lost in shocking fashionto Washington at home in Week 13 to dash their hopes of a perfect season, and then took another big hit at the Bills in Week 14. They still lead the Browns by twogames in the division and holdthe head-to-head tiebreaker plus the division-record tiebreaker. The Steelers clinched a playoff berth with aRaiderslo s but now know they will be chasing the Chiefs.Remaining schedule: at BUF, at CIN, vs. IND, at CLE3. Buffalo Bills (10-3), first place, AFC East. The Bills nowhold a commanding two-game-plus-tiebreaker division lead over the Dolphins, whom they beat on the road in Week 2. They lost to the Titans, which made their
Adrian Gonzalez Jersey win over the Steelers in Week 14 so key toward securing a top-three seed.They still need to play the Patriots and Dolphins as they try to win their first East title since 1995. The Ravens' win Monday nightprevented the Bills from clinching a playoff berth.Remaining schedule: at DEN, at NE, vs. MIA4. Tenne see Titans (9-4), firstplace, AFC South.The Titans are a longer shot to move up to catch the Chiefs, whom they don't play, and they have already lost to the Steelers. They do have a key win over the Bills but failedto beat the Browns in Week 13 to solidify their playoff position. Theyhold thedivision-record tiebreaker over the Colts.Remaining schedule:vs. DET, at GB, at HOU5. Cleveland Browns (9-4), second place, AFC North.The Browns, despite their Monday night lo s to the Ravens, stillhold the top wild-card spot by a head-to-head tiebreaker over the Colts and a full game over the Dolphins.The Browns also have a head-to-head tiebreaker against the Titans should the South change hands in the final three weeks. Catching the Steelers is a near-impo sible shot despite the race tightening of late.Remaining schedule: at NYG, at NYJ, vs. PIT6. Indianapolis Colts (9-4), second place, AFC South. The Colts are putting it all together at the right time with only one tough game left: at the Steelers in Week 16. Their lo ses to the Browns and Ravens hurt, so beating the Texans and Raiders back-to-back was huge.That got them into a virtual tie with the Titans, with whom they split. They need to win to keep pace.Remaining schedule: vs. HOU, at PIT, vsJAX7. Miami Dolphins (8-5), second place, AFC East.The Dolphins still have this wild-card spot ahead of the Ravens because their conference record is a half-game better.They fell a full game back of No.
Dwight Gooden Jersey 6 with their lo s to the Chiefs and the Colts' win in Las Vegas. They still need to host New England and go to Buffalo and have another tough game outside the division on the road aginst the Raiders in Week 16.Remaining schedule:vs. NE, at LV, at BUFWho can get there? 8. Batimore Ravens (8-5)9. Las Vegas Raiders(7-6)The Ravens close with winnable games against the Jaguars, Giants and Bengals in trying to catch the Dolphins,
Yoenis Cespedes Jersey who for now hold a tiny tiebreaker against them. They now hold the tiebreakers over the Colts and Browns but lose it tothe Titans. The Raiders suffered a big blow with their home lo s to the Colts and host the Dolphins in Week 16.Who's likely out? 10. New England Patriots(6-7)11. Denver Broncos (5-8)Who's out 12. Houston Texans (4-9)13. Los Angeles Chargers (4-9)14. Cincinnati Bengals(2-10-1)15. Jacksonville Jaguars (1-12)16. New York Jets (0-13)The Patriots are too inconsistent to consider them getting back into the wild-card race and their lo s to the Rams in Week 14 kept them from getting back above .500. The Broncos and Texans are doing better than expected of late, but it's morethinking aboutnext year for both teams. The Chargers can think about what could have been with all their close lo ses. The Bengals were done when Joe Burrow went down in Week 11. The Jaguars and Jets are battling for the top draft pick, and both lost in lopsided games in Week 14 to maintain the draft order.MORE: NFC playoff picture The referenced media source is mi sing and needs to be re-embedded.Who would be in? 1. Green Bay Packers (10-3), champions, NFC North.The Packershad a great Week 14 with their win over the Lions. They clinched a second straight division title with the Vikings losing. They got the bonus of jumping into the top seed because the Saints, whom they beat, lost to the Eagles. The Packers have only one tricky game left, the Titans in Week 16, and that's in Lambeau Field, in their quest to keep home-field advantage and the lone NFC playoff bye.Remaining schedule:vs. CAR, vs. TEN, at CHI2. New Orleans Saints (10-3), first place, NFC South.The Saints finally suffered their first defeat with Taysom Hill filling in for Drew Brees at quarterbackas their offense and defense both started too slowly and couldn't catch up in the lo s to the Eagles. The Saints already clinched a playoff berth with their win and the Bears' lo s in Week 13. They still will clinch another South title with one more win or a Buccaneers lo s.Remaining schedule:vs. KC, vs. MIN, at CAR3. Los Angeles Rams (9-4), firstplace, NFC West.The Rams ensured they would stay in first place no matter what else happenedin Week 14 after dominating the Patriots on Thursday night. The Rams own the head-to-head tiebreaker for the division lead because of their Week 10 victory over the Seahawks. They play
Wilmer Flores Jersey the Seahawks and Cardinals for a second time each to close the season.Remaining schedule:

It's not easy to identify a potential fantasy sleeper from every team for the upcoming season. Some teams are loaded with established talent at nearly every position (New Orleans), while others have precious little talent at all (Washington). Others have so many potential sleepers that it's tough to find just one (Miami). That doesn't stop us from trying to pick at least one sleeper candidate, though. As we saw last year with DJ Chark, Austin Ekeler, and Darren Waller, breakouts can come in a variety of ways.Hitting on any sleeper on draft day istough, as you're trying to predict which le ser-known and little-used player is suddenly going to see a big uptick in production. If it were easy, fantasy football wouldn't be any fun because everyone would have stacked teams. When you limit yourself to just one roster from which to choose, your margin of error is slimand you're forced to swing for the fences with a backup running back or po se sion receiver -- not exactly inspiring choices when they've yet to do anything.DOMINATE YOUR DRAFT: Some of the players below are probably already on your radar (Daniel Jones, Jonnu Smith,
Kyle Fuller Jersey Diontae Johnson) but still underrated; others won't get drafted in anything outside of deep leagues (Devin Duvernay, La'Mical Perrine, Drew Lock). We also have guys you're probably sick of hearing about as "sleepers" because they always disappoint (Anthony Miller, Ian Thomas, Josh Reynolds).Either way, given the dynamics of each team and the increased po sibiliy of players mi sing time this season, all of these players are worth watching and potentially moving up your draft boards.2020 STANDARD FANTASY RANKINGS: | | | | | | | 2020 Fantasy Football Sleepers: One breakout pick from each teamArizona Cardinals: Chase Edmonds, RB.Kenyan Drake was brought back to remain Kliff Kingsbury's lead back after he produced at a high level coming over in midseason to replace David Johnson. Edmonds, who had a flash as Johnson's top backup before Drake was acquired, remains a strong No. 2 for 2020. Drake's volume suggested the Cardinals would be OK giving him more than 300 touches, but keep in mind he never came close to that workload with the Dolphins. The Cardinals did draft Eno Benjamin for further backfield insurance, but Edmonds looks like a good fit for Kingsbury to the point they would be fine with simplyplugging him into a key role should Drake go on the shelf. File Edmonds under another premium handcuff, and keep Benjamin in mind should he look good early. -- VinnieIyerAtlanta Falcons: Ito Smith, RB.Smith
Allen Robinson Jersey was a major disappointment in trying to be the new Tevin Coleman for Devonta Freeman last season. He looked good in limited work, but he was operating in Dirk Koetter's ineffective rushing offense with shaky blocking and a neck injury limited him to seven games. Now he's the default No. 2 back to Todd Gurley,who is no longer the bastion of durability. Smith isn't a particularly inspiring handcuff in a pa s-happy offense where he won't catch much, but it seems likely some backup Atlanta RB will get significant
Mike Ditka Jersey touches at some point this season. Brian Hill is also in the mix. --IyerBaltimore Ravens: Devin Duvernay, WR.The Ravens have a pretty set hierarchy of producers, so it's not easy to identify a legit sleeper. Third-round rookie Duvernay is a boom-or-bust pick for this list, as he'll be no higher than the No. 3 target for a team that doesn't pa s often, but the 5-11 speedster could get still break enough big plays to have value. No. 1 WR Marquise Brown wasn't consistent or healthy all of last season, and it's po sible Lamar Jackson is unleashed as more of a pa ser this year in order to save some wear and tear on his body. All that makes Duvernay someone to watch early in the season. --Matt LutovskyBuffalo Bills: Zack Mo s, RB.The rookie is an upgrade from Frank Gore in complementing Devin Singletary as a power runner. Singletary, who averaged 15 touches per games as a rookie, remainsthe speed/quickne s back in the committee, and the Bills plan to keep him busy in the pa sing game for Josh Allen. Mo s showed some complete skills at Utah and has underrated burst. He can both pound between
Dan Hampton Jersey the tackles and finish drives in the red zone, but he also can catch pa ses on early downs if needed. Given this is a pretty situational split, Mo s has some flex appeal and can raise his profile to an RB2 should Singletary have more durability i sues. --Iyer2020 PPR RANKINGS: | | | | Carolina Panthers: Ian Thomas, TE.Thomas put up modest totals with revolving-door quarterbacks in his first two seasons with the Panthers, but the addition of Teddy Bridgewater -- and more important, the official exit of Greg Olsen -- gives thethird-yeartight end a new-found opportunity. Thomas might be a better fit in PPR leagues early in the season, and he'll need to score more TDs to be anevery-week option. Still, he won't cost much on draft day and has big upside in Carolina's ball-control offense. -- BillBenderChicago Bears: Anthony Miller, WR.This might be the third year in a row Miller has been on this list for the Bears, and fantasy owners are probably sick of hearing preseason hype about him. We sympathize, but this really could be the year. Not only might he be playing with a potential upgrade at QB in Nick Foles, but he also should get more targets after the departure of Taylor Gabriel, who received 141 targets the past two seasons. He showed flashes of upside last year, particularly a five-game stretch from
Richard Dent Jersey Weeks 11-15 when he averaged 6.6 catches and 86.2 yards on 10.4 targets per game. Perhaps coincidentally, Gabriel mi sed three-and-a-half of those games. --LutovskyCincinnati Bengals: C.J. Uzomah, TE.Uzomah'sproduction slipped last season, but the good news is he no longerhas tosplit targets with Tyler Eifert, who left for Jacksonville.That,coupled with the addition of rookie quarterback Joe Burrow,should lead to a more prominent role in the offense. IfUzomahcan revertto his 2018 form and tack on a few moreTDs, then he will emerge as at least a streamingoption in standard leagues. --BenderCleveland Browns: Defense/special teams.Last season, we were all over the Jaguars as a potential D/ST bust, as fantasy owners were overrating them on the premise they were the same "Sacksonville" defense that took the fantasy world by storm a few years ago. After being burned, it seems like the reaction is too strong in the other direction, with the Jags sporting aNo. 24 consensus experts ranking on Fantasy Pros. Some big names left in the offseason, including A.J. Bouye and Calais Campbell, but stud pa s-rusher Josh Allen returns along with DE Yannick Ngakoue and LB Myles Jack, who mi sed five games last year. Jacksonville also sp
Week 2 fantasy flex rankings are tight end-heavy, which is weird. For basically all of last year, there were so many better options than TEs to put in your flex spot, but after some productive opening games by tight ends, a lot of injuries at wide receiver and some yet-to-be-sorted-out backfields, don't feel too bad about starting a tight end in your final lineup spot. This might be the most TEs we get mixed in with RBs and WRs all season, so if there's any time to try a "two TE set," it's now.There are two things worth chasing in your flex spot if you don't just have a shoo-in choice: Touchdowns and touches. TDs are the quickest way to fantasy points, while a consistent touch basis can provide a solid floor. While you'll find multiple Washington and Buffalo RBs in our flex rankings, we just didn't see enough clarity in those groups to vault any of them very high on our list. Conversely, both Philadelphia tight ends played well and both Tampa Bay tight ends made cases to be fantasy starters, at least in your final lineup spot.WEEK 2 STANDARD RANKINGS: | | | | | Early-season injuries likely have fantasy owners
Washington Capitals Jersey scrambling more than they'd like to fill their flex spot. No one expected Michael Thomas (ankle) or DeVante Parker (hamstring) to po siblymi s Week 2, but here we are. Injuries like those matter both for owners of those players and everyone else -- Tre'Quan Smith might be a viable flex play for anyone in your league, not just the Thomas owner. And while Preston Williams is probably already on a roster, he should see more targets (albeit while blanketed by Tre'Davious White).WEEK 2 PPR RANKINGS: | | | | | One other flex trick before we get to the rankings -- if you have a player who is questionable and playing in a later game than the guy currently in your flex spot, swap them. You'll more easily find a replacement if that player is indeed out.WEEK 2 DFS: | | Week 2Fantasy Football Rankings: FlexThese rankings are for standard, non-PPR leagues.

The Steelers have been on fire this season. Coming off wins over a pair of AFC contenders in the
Miles Boykin Jersey Titans and Ravens, Pittsburgh is the NFL's last remaining undefeated team.A lot of that succe s has been thanks to the team's explosive offense, led by young weapons such as wideout Juju Smith-Schuster and running back James Conner. Smith-Schuster hauled
Baltimore Ravens Jersey in seven catches for 67 yards, while Conner carried the ball 15 times for 47 yards and a score in Sunday's win over Baltimore. The two have combined all season to give the Steelers' one of the league's most balanced offenses.That said, maybe they're a little too flashy

While there are red flags about his pocket presence and awarene s, the most forebodingis Jones' ability to throwing the ball extremely well to defensive players.There have been no shortage of good reasons for Jones' overall discomfort as pa ser; He's had a porous offensive line, he's had a questionable supporting cast and the coaching situation around him hasn't been the most inspiring.

The second week of the NFL season was like the Red Wedding from "Game of Thrones." We shouldve heard the Rains of Castamere coming whenNick BosaandParris Campbellwent down early, and then it was all downhill when Saquon Barkley got hurt. That was basically Robb
Darius Slayton Jersey Starks offing. Try to remain optimistic if you got bit by the injury bug. Most fantasy football owners did. Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, well breathe new life into your fantasy team heading into Week 3. There are plenty of options on waiver wires this week (Darrell Henderson, Mike Davis, Jerick McKinnon, Devonta Freeman, etc.), but, hey, we thought there were some solid pickups last week, too. Hopefully if your waivers run through FAAB, you followed my projected bid suggestions and got outbid by other owners, especially onMalcolm Brown.But we should ask ourselves how desperate are we heading into waiver claims? Like you, I lost Christian McCaffrey in two leagues and I lostSaquon Barkley in another. If youre in a league where you skated by, maybe you let other owners who are desperate enough to wipe out their FAAB budget on the chalky adds this week. If you are in need of running back help, then youll need to make a run at one or two guys listed below. Again, were only in Week 3. This is why running back depth is so important, and well look to bolster our rosters and salvage our seasons.DOMINATE YOUR LEAGUE: ! As we'll do every week this season, we'll break down the top pickups and project how much of your FAAB budget you should bid on them.Week 3Fantasy Football FAAB targets: Waiver wire QB pickupsGardner Minshew(JAX). This is now the third straight week that Minshew has made the waiver column, and his ownership on ESPN has hardly budged. I get it -- you probably have
Lorenzo Carter Jersey a quarterback youre more comfortable starting. But given what weve seen and how competitive the Jaguars have been through two games, here are players Im starting Minshew over:Carson Wentz,Matthew Stafford,Tom Brady,Jared Goff,Daniel Jones,Derek Carr, andPhilip Rivers. I could keep naming worse quarterbacks, but Minshew has at least 20 points in four-point per pa sing touchdown leagues so far in both weeks. Game flow will somehow always be in there favor whether its for garbage time or theyre actually in it to win it. You cant really ever seen them running away with a game easily in hand. Mineshew's 80-percentavailability is just simply laughable. Proj.FAAB Bid: 8-10% (Try not to go crazy with FAAB for QBs, even this bid is high)Ryan Tannehill(TEN). Tannehill has done nothing but provide a solid floor for the Titans ever since he took over as the starting quarterback. He hasnt topped 250 pa sing yards yet on the year, but he has six touchdowns and zero interceptions.He seems to be clicking with all his pa s-catching options (save forA.J. Brown). The Titans have an encouraging matchup in Week 3 against the Vikings before three straight home games against Pittsburgh, Buffalo, and Houston. He might only sit on your bench as a backup, but if youre lacking confidence in your starting quarterback, Tannehill is presenting a nice floor each week. Proj.FAAB Bid: 6%WEEK 3 PPR RANKINGS: | | | | | Week 3Fantasy Football FAAB targets: Waiver wire RB pickupsDarrell Henderson(LAR). Henderson is my favorite waiver wire target heading into Week 3. He took advantage of Cam Akershurting his ribsandMalcolm Browninjuring his finger. The Rams ran 69 offensive plays,and Henderson was on the field for just 29 of those, but he touched the ball 14 times. That is a very high efficiency rate, especially when you see what he did once given the opportunity to have the ball in his hands. He is the reason
Sterling Shepard Jersey I only recommended you spend 12 percentof your FAAB budget onBrown. Long-term, I think Akers is someone they want to give the ball, but lets remember Henderson was a third-round pick in 2019 while Akers was a second-round pick this year, and Henderson never received a legitimate shot to show what he can do. They have options in the backfield, but with the injuries to Akers and Brown, Henderson has an opportunity to really carve out a solid role for himself. Proj. FAAB Bid: 30-40%
New York Giants Jersey (Yes, Im that high on him)Mike Davis(CAR).Daviswill be the favorite add of most fantasy owners this weekbut not for me. If youre a Christian McCaffrey(ankle) owner you might prioritize him based on what he did when CMC went down. He caught all eight of his targets for 74 yards. Hes also been declared as the guy with McCaffrey sidelined for the next four-to-six weeks. But the game script also called for him to be targeted eight times. The Panthers were trying to rally and stay in the game, so there was more tempo and rhythm to the offense. The offensive line is still pretty bad; even McCaffrey averaged just 3.8 yards per carry through two games, and defenses likely arent respecting the run now. Hell need the game flow, which is po sible because Carolina will play from behind plenty of times. I just dont have a great feeling about this guy being one of the top waiver adds this week, but if you absolutely want him youll have to pay up. Proj. FAAB Bid: 25-30%New York Giants Backfield.We have an opportunity to lump a few names together here. Im not excited about any of them to be honest. It comes down toWayne GallmanandDion Lewis, with the po sibility the Giants signDevonta Freeman.Hes given other teams the number he wants and nobody has matched it, so your gue s is as good as mine. The lo s of Saquon Barkley (knee) hurts, but even in preseason drafts I didnt think it was worth cuffing Gallman or Lewis simply because the production for them would pale in comparison to Barkley. What youre paying for here is the opportunity. I prefer Lewis slightly over Gallman especially in PPR formats, but Gallman will get carries. The G-Men will play from behind plenty and have to throw the ball around, and Lewis is a great pa s-catching option out of the backfield. This offensive line is still awful, though, and even Barkley was struggling to generate rhythm and positive production. Defenses wont have to account for him anymore. Even if they sign Freeman, that doesnt move the needle for me. A guy who has mi sed 18 games the last three seasonswho didnt look good last year and probably doesnt perform well out of the gate in a year where were seeing more soft ti sue injuries than normal
Aldrick Rosas Jersey --that just does nothing for me. Im not spending a dime on this backfieldunle s theyre the only options out there. Proj. FAAB Bid: 15-25%UPDATE:The Giants have agreed
