Nick Mariano's rest-of-season fantasy football rankings for Week 5 in half-PPR and full-PPR leagues. Set winning lineups with our updated Week 5 fantasy football ranks for 2025.
We're through four weeks, one whole month, and have seen the entire fantasy football landscape shift beneath our feet, so let's orient ourselves with an updated rest-of-season rankings sheet! Hopefully, you hit the start of bye-week season with a balanced squad that allows you to simply target the best free agents and trades, but we know life isn't always that simple. Let's sharpen our winning rosters with our Week 5 fantasy football half-PPR rankings for the rest of 2025 as of October 1.
Be sure to inspect where key players have moved, such as Omarion Hampton, Ashton Jeanty, Jaylen Waddle, Ja'Marr Chase, and more. The first four byes are upon us, but there's a lot of season ahead of us. Don't get too comfortable, as everything can change in a blink!
Be sure to bookmark our fantasy football rankings portal and check back regularly for updates. In addition to these half-PPR rankings, we now have full-PPR ranks in a second table, and you should also 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.

Notable Fantasy Football Questions Going into Week 5
- Does Cleveland's defense and ground game prove enough for Dillon Gabriel to start on the right foot in London?
- Can a beleaguered Baltimore squad come up with a plan to stay rolling with so many injuries?
- How will Miami split targets without Tyreek Hill? And the Giants without Malik Nabers?
- Will Denver's defense be able to force Philadelphia out of its comfort zone?
- Can Tennessee show any life, or does Tyjae Spears' addition just further dilute the mess?
- How do the Buccaneers mitigate Seattle's front with their patchwork offensive line and a Bucky Irving injury?
- Can the Chargers fare any better at protecting Justin Herbert after losing Joe Alt?
- Do the Lions score 50, 60, or 70 points against Cincy?
- Can New England's ground game get right against Buffalo's porous run unit?
- Does Kansas City even pretend to run against Jacksonville's funnel defense?
