CFB DFS Rankings - Daily Fantasy College Football Rankings for Week 5 (Saturday 9/30)

Caleb Williams - Fantasy Football Rankings, College FB, NFL Rookies, Draft Sleepers

Brad's CFB DFS rankings for Week 5 on 9/30/23. His daily fantasy college football rankings for QBs, RBs and WRs and the DFS slates on DraftKings and FanDuel.

Another week of college football brings us another chance to watch the high-octane USC offense, this time against the talk of the NCAA world, the Colorado Buffaloes. Much like last week, it will be hard to build lineups without Colorado's opponent (USC) in your lineups. It is also going to be tough to pass on Boise State stud Ashton Jeanty as he has been one of the biggest revelations in college football this year.

There are a few notes to keep in mind this week, Raheim Sanders is one of the best overall players in college football, but he has missed the last few weeks due to injury. Because of that, he has seen his price drop in a big way, if he is deemed ready to play he should be a lock in your lineups. Also keep an eye on Xavier Weaver at Colorado, after being dinged up last game, his absence could bring a ton of targets for other players.

In this article below, you will find my CFB DFS lineup picks for Week 5 (Saturday, September 30th) via my positional college football rankings. Use these CFB DFS rankings when building daily fantasy college football on DraftKings, and be sure to read the rest of our CFB DFS articles and CFB betting articles as well. Good luck RotoBallers!
