Week 5 Fantasy Football Quarterback Rankings: Kyler Murray, Justin Fields, Baker Mayfield, Deshaun Watson, Patrick Mahomes, Dak Prescott, Derek Carr

Baker Mayfield - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers

RotoBaller's Week 5 fantasy football quarterback (QB) rankings for the 2024 NFL season. Win more with our QB fantasy football rankings for Week 5 lineups.

Week 5 marks the start of teams on byes, and fantasy managers with Jalen Hurts and Jared Goff will have to look elsewhere at QB this week. Superflex or two-QB managers with Will Levis and Justin Herbert will also have to pivot. We're here to help with our NFL team's Week 5 fantasy football quarterback rankings for 2024.

Some key quarterbacks have failed to deliver this season, while other QBs who were considered mid-range options for 2024 have boomed often. Given the range of QB performance, let's see where key quarterbacks such as Kyler Murray, Justin Fields, Baker Mayfield, Deshaun Watson, Patrick Mahomes, Sam Darnold, and Bo Nix rank among others.

In addition to our staff rankings, below is a summary of the important QB fantasy football injury news for this week. Be sure to bookmark our fantasy football rankings portal and check back regularly for updates. Good luck in Week 5 RotoBallers!

Editor's Note: The FFPC Playoff Challenge #2 is back with a massive $100,000 grand prize and $203,250 total prize pool, paying down to 100th place. Here's the deal: no salary cap, no draft, no pickups, no subs. Choose 8 players, and as NFL teams get knocked out so will your players, so choose your team wisely. The entries will sell out quickly, and registrations will close on Saturday January 17th at 4:30 pm ET . Don't wait - get your team now and end your fantasy football season with a shot at $100,000!
