Players — 2024 Week 5

Scoring: Full PPR · 6-pt pass TD

FLEX fantasy football rankings for Week 5, 2024: projected points with calibrated floor and ceiling ranges and boom/bust odds, sortable by any column.

Archived example week — 2024 Week 5. These are not current projections. Many of these players are still active, so don't use these numbers to set a lineup. Subscribers get the live week. See plans →

This archived week lists every player we projected that week, whatever his team or status today.

RB: Some seasons ahead are not ranked for RB here, because what we have for them doesn't hold up; the seasons offered above are the ones we publish. WR: Some seasons ahead are not ranked for WR here, because what we have for them doesn't hold up; the seasons offered above are the ones we publish. TE: Some seasons ahead are not ranked for TE here, because what we have for them doesn't hold up; the seasons offered above are the ones we publish.

TE: No ranking by the rest of the 2024 season and the 2025–2026 seasons combined is shown. That combined total is tested for only some players at this position, and a ranking that left the rest out would not be a ranking of the position.

Weekly projections for DL, LB and DB are not part of this 2024 Week 5 example; choose the rest of the season or a season ahead to rank them.

Rank shown is the FLEX rank, across every position on this board (mean desc), independent of the sort you pick.

About these numbers

DET, LAC, PHI and TEN were on bye in 2024 Week 5. Their players are still ranked here — 1 of the 26 rows on this board, each marked “BYE” in place of a Profile word. A club on bye plays no game that week, so nothing on those rows will be scored, and we state no spread profile for a week that is not played.

RB, WR and TE ranked together. Boom and Bust on this board are measured against the FLEX pool, not each player's own position: the FLEX replacement level is 9.2 points, the best RB, WR or TE still free once all 12 teams have filled a starting lineup with one flex slot (RB, WR or TE). A bust is a week under 6.1 points. A boom is a week of at least 20.4 points.

Team reads “not listed” on 2 of the 26 rows on this board. The badge names the club whose published depth chart listed the player in that week, never the club he is on today — a present-day badge beside an archived week is the wrong answer, so where that week's chart does not list him we name no club rather than guess one. It is not a claim that he was unsigned or that he did not play.

What these columns mean

Team
— The club whose published depth chart listed the player in THAT week, read from the slate's own chart rather than from his club today — these boards can be archived weeks. “not listed” where that week's chart does not list him.
Mean
— The league-rules-aware fantasy-points mean. It already integrates over playing-time and matchup uncertainty, so it is not a best case.
Floor
— The 10th percentile of this player's projected points: 10% of simulated weeks come in below it. It is the lower edge of the calibrated 80% range.
Ceiling
— The 90th percentile: only 10% of simulated weeks come in above it. It is the upper edge of the same calibrated 80% range.
Boom
— Chance of a week beating 1.5x the typical starter across RB, WR and TE, 20.4 points this week — the typical starter is the median projection among the RB, WR and TE players at or above the FLEX replacement level. One bar for the whole board, so every row here is measured against the same number, which is not the bar on his own position's tab.
Bust
— Chance of a week under two-thirds of the FLEX replacement level: under 6.1 points this week. The FLEX replacement level is the points of the best RB, WR or TE still free once all 12 teams have filled a starting lineup with one flex slot (RB, WR or TE). Two-thirds is the Boom bar's 1.5x read the other way. The bar is the pool's, not his own position's.
Profile
— Spread and nothing else — no claim about upside. The coefficient of variation (standard deviation divided by mean), bucketed: rock solid below 0.45; steady up to 0.60; swingy up to 0.80; high variance at 0.80 and above. “BYE” instead where the player's club had no game that week — a spread is a claim about a week that is played.
