Wild Card Half-PPR Rankings for Fantasy Football: Tee Higgins, Tony Pollard, Mark Andrews, Tyler Lockett, Richie James

Saquon Barkley - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Wild Card fantasy football rankings for half-PPR scoring, as of January 10th, 2023. Set winning lineups with our Wild Card ranks for fantasy football and the 2022 NFL season.

Traditional fantasy football leagues have come to an end, but DFS gamers and fantasy enthusiasts playing in playoff leagues are still competing for something. We're providing fantasy coverage all throughout the playoffs, so we're back with our updated Wild Card fantasy football half-PPR rankings for fantasy football, as of January 10th. Our goal as always is to help you set those winning lineups and find DFS values, so let's see where key players like Tee Higgins, Tony Pollard, Mark Andrews, Tyler Lockett, and Richie James rank, among others.

Our half-PPR fantasy football rankings are put together by Nick Mariano, Brandon Murchison and Andersen Pickard. In addition to our staff rankings, below you will also find a summary of the important fantasy football injury news for this week. There are always key injuries to keep track of, so be sure to check back until kickoff.

You should also bookmark our fantasy football rankings portal and check back regularly for updates. In addition to these half-PPR rankings, read our fantasy football articles and analysis - our NFL team discusses lineup sleepers, busts, NFL players to start and sit, waiver wire pickups and so much more. Most importantly, our brand new free mobile app is a must-have - download it and configure your notifications. We deliver all the top NFL news, injuries, and fantasy analysis 24x7 with our free push notification alerts!

You can also check out our Wild Card  PPR rankings and Standard rankings. A big congrats to our very own Nick Mariano who once again finished as a top-10 ranker in 2021 across the entire fantasy football industry!

Note that quarterbacks, defenses and kickers are all grouped separately towards the bottom. Each of those positions is ranked on their own. This helps to compare running backs, wide receivers and tight ends for FLEX spots (without QB, DEF, K mixed in).
