Fantasy Football Full PPR Rankings: Justin Boone's FLEX rankings for Week 6
Welcome to the Week 6 FLEX battlefield, where the full PPR format turns every touch into potential fantasy gold, and navigating this landscape requires the sharp eye of a tactician who sees player matchups not just as statistics, but as epic clashes of modern gridiron gladiators. Justin Boone, whose 2019 FantasyPros Most Accurate Expert Award is the equivalent of a quarterback throwing for 5,000 yards and 50 touchdowns in a single season—a legendary feat that places him in the pantheon of fantasy oracles alongside the likes of Matthew Berry in his prime—has once again deployed his rankings, and for those of us who treat our fantasy lineups with the seriousness of a general plotting a military campaign, these are our essential orders.The FLEX spot is where championships are forged or shattered; it’s the critical roster slot that demands not just a running back who can grind out tough yards like a young Adrian Peterson, but a dual-threat weapon whose pass-catching prowess can explode for a 20-point outing on volume alone. Consider the conundrum of a player like the Lions' Amon-Ra St.Brown, whose target share is so immense it recalls the relentless efficiency of a prime Antonio Brown, making him a set-and-forget FLEX king in this scoring system. Yet, we must also weigh the volatile upside of a rookie like the Texans' Tank Dell, whose blazing speed and growing role present a high-risk, high-reward proposition akin to betting on a deep bomb on fourth down.Meanwhile, the running back landscape is a minefield of committee backfields and injury reports; a name like the Falcons' Bijan Robinson possesses the transcendent, all-around talent that draws comparisons to Marshall Faulk, but his usage can be as frustratingly unpredictable as a coin flip, forcing managers to balance his elite ceiling against the safer, high-floor consistency of a veteran like the Vikings' Jordan Addison, who operates with the precise route-running of a seasoned pro. This isn't merely about plugging in the highest-ranked name; it's a deep analytical dive into defensive matchups—facing the Broncos' porous run defense is a gift akin to a basketball team going against a zone defense with no weak-side help—touch projections, and target trends that separate the casual player from the league champion.The beauty of Boone's rankings is that they synthesize this complex data into a actionable hierarchy, a strategic blueprint that accounts for everything from a receiver's ability to generate yards after the catch, a trait that made legends like Jerry Rice unstoppable, to a running back's role in the two-minute drill, where a single screen pass can salvage an otherwise quiet day. As we finalize our lineups for Sunday morning, remember that in full PPR, volume is king, and the FLEX position is your throne room—choose your weapons wisely, because in the brutal arena of fantasy football, there are no participation trophies, only the glory of victory or the agony of a season derailed by one misguided start-sit decision.
