Thursday Game - Raiders at Chiefs

Here are our rankings for the coming week at each position to help you decide your starting lineup. Our rankings are based on the following scoring system: four points for a passing touchdown; six points for a rushing/receiving touchdown; one point for every 20 passing yards; and one point for every 10 rushing/receiving yards. Flex Rankings are for PPR leagues.

Typically, this article will be posted on Tuesday evenings, roughly around 7:00 pm PT. ***These are not draft rankings. They are solely for the given week of the season.***

I will update these during the week, usually twice per week to account for injury or other news during practice. The timing of those updates will vary based on the news at hand and my schedule for the given week. But the first of those updates usually won't happen until Thursday. At any rate, I will post a "last updated" note at the top of the article, or an "update in progress" note if it's while I'm doing it. If there is no such note, that means it's my first pass at the rankings for this current week.

By all means, if you want to discuss a rank, or want me to add a player, chime in on the comments. I try to be receptive to your feedback and try to respond to most comments, though on occasion the volume can be quite thick. Please refer to the rankings first when asking "should I start Player A vs. Player B?". And then refer to the rankings again before asking a generic starting decision question. If you really desire a response to a starting question that doesn't have added complexity, please use our Ask An Expert service - it comes with your subscription. My response will correspond with the rankings.

Quarterback

1.	Aaron Rodgers GB vs. Sea Note: Still looked uncomfortable due to his injured hamstring. Limited practice Wednesday. Removed from the injury list, snow in the forecast.*

18.	Dak Prescott DAL at NYG
19.	*Colin Kaepernick SF vs. NYJ Note: Pulled after doing nearly nothing for three quarters against the Bears, in order to see if Blaine Gabbert could give the Niners a 'spark.' Will start again this week, however.
20.	Joe Flacco BAL at NE
21.	Alex Smith KC vs. Oak
22.	Carson Wentz PHI vs. Was Note: The good news - he threw for 308 yards. The bad news - it took 60 attempts (good for a 5.1 YPA), and he threw three interceptions.

77.	DeVante Parker MIA vs. Ari Note: (Back) On the field for 49 snaps in the loss to the Ravens. Limited practice Wednesday and Thursday. Full practice Friday.*
78.	Randall Cobb GB vs. Sea
79.	Mark Ingram NO at TB Note: (Toe) Appeared to be hobbled at multiple times during the loss to the Lions, but returned each times. Limited practice Wednesday, sat out practice Thursday. Limited practice again Friday, expected to play.*
80.	Chris Hogan NE vs. Bal
81.	Allen Robinson JAC vs. Min Note: Rarely seems to get much separation - he was targeted 10 times against the Broncos, but was covered on most of those targets.
82.	Todd Gurley LA vs. Atl
83.	Terrance West BAL at NE
84.	Tim Hightower NO at TB
85.	C.J. Fiedorowicz HOU at Ind
86.	Jason Witten DAL at NYG
87.	Coby Fleener NO at TB Note: Played 41 snaps in the loss against the Lions, should get more playing time with Josh Hill out.
88.	Vernon Davis WAS at Phi
89.	Michael Floyd ARZ at Mia
90.	Adam Thielen MIN at Jax
91.	Tyler Boyd CIN at Cle Note: Establishing in a 50+-yard floor with A.J. Green out, but not much of a ceiling.
92.	Isaiah Crowell CLE vs. Cin
93.	*James Starks GB vs. Sea Note: On the field for only seven snaps in the win over the Texans, apparently not injured.
94.	Duke Johnson CLE vs. Cin
95.	Tevin Coleman ATL at LA
96.	Ty Montgomery GB vs. Sea
97.	Tyler Lockett SEA at GB Note: Finally displayed the skills that made him a trendy breakout pick in draft season ... most likely on your bench or even the waiver wire.
98.	Josh Bellamy CHI at Det Note: Two big drops against the Niners, but also a handful of big catches, and did a great job of getting open in the first place. (Shoulder) Limited practice Wednesday. Limited in practice all week, listed as questionable.*
99.	Tajae Sharpe TEN vs. Den
100.	Brandon LaFell CIN at Cle Note: (Knee) Limited practice Wednesday, full practice Thursday.*
101.	Will Fuller HOU at Ind Note: (Hip) Limited practice Wednesday, full practice Thursday.*
102.	Vance McDonald SF vs. NYJ
103.	Dwayne Allen IND vs. Hou Note: The Jets' lack of belief in the tight end position extended to covering them on Monday night, too.
104.	Mike Gillislee BUF vs. Pit Note: Officially the Bills' goal line back.*
105.	Ted Ginn CAR vs. SD
106.	Cameron Meredith CHI at Det Note: The only fully healthy receiver among Wilson, Bellamy, Royal and himself.*

110.	Jalen Richard OAK at KC

113.	Marqise Lee JAC vs. Min
114.	Quincy Enunwa NYJ at SF
115.	Robby Anderson NYJ at SF Note: Had four catches (on 12 targets - mostly from Bryce Petty) for 61 yards and a touchdown. He seems to have a connection with Petty, who will start the final four games for the Jets.
116.	Jermaine Kearse SEA at GB
117.	Wendell Smallwood PHI vs. Was Note: Got a lot of work early, netting 24 snaps, but disappeared in favor of Darren Sproles after the Eagles fell far behind the Bengals. Value takes a big hit with Mathews returning this week.*
118.	Martellus Bennett NE vs. Bal Note: Just missed connecting on an end zone target. (Ankle/Shoulder) Limited practice Thursday. Listed as questionable.*
119.	Dennis Pitta BAL at NE
120.	Christine Michael GB vs. Sea Note: Revenge game angle? Probably not.
121.	Chris Thompson WAS at Phi
122.	Michael Thomas NO at TB Note: (Foot) No practice Wednesday or Thursday. Limited practice Friday, listed as questionable.*
123.	Theo Riddick DET vs. Chi Note: Lightly used in win over the Saints, though that might be because the Lions were ahead the bulk of the game and were in fewer passing situations. Held out of practice Wednesday with a wrist injury. Listed as questionable after being limited all week. INACTIVE*

22.	Chandler Catanzaro ARZ at Mia
23.	Connor Barth CHI at Det
