Often times, there is nothing tougher (or more important) than deciding who your weekly flex-plays are. It can be a mind-numbing experience having to make cross-positional projections.

This season, our RosterWatch PRO community will have personal and exclusive access to our very own disgusting Trashman, who has carefully curated his personal weekly flex rankings in order to help you in gaining input about your roster decisions.

PLEASE Keep in mind, these are not our official RosterWatch Week 5 rankings, but we’ve learned over time to pay extra-special attention to what the Trashman might have up his filthy sleeve – and where he stacks up players against one another for the coming week’s slate cross-positionally.

Our OFFICIAL rankings page here on the site will continue to be updated through the day Saturday and Sunday morning as more information comes in and we become more comfortable with player slotting. In the meantime, have a look at how the Trashman sees Week 5’s slate shaking out – as his inputs to our formula are a key (albeit smelly and gross) component.

  1. pretty sure the computer genius is gonna disagree with your hate for T Benjamin this week Trashman!

  2. Jeremy Hill for Marshawn? Standard 10 team league.. my rbs– lamar miller, j. hill, abdullah, r. mathews, Karlos williams..

  3. Would you drop Tevin Coleman or Karlos Williams for Allen Hurns? This week I’m forced to play Cooks, as Marshall and Steve Smith are both out. Is the difference in Hurns and Cooks enough?

    1. no, i think cooks’ best ball is yet to be played.

  4. Hill or gio? Standard

    1. Never mind. Should’ve confirmed my first suspicions with the list

  5. Trashman speaks the truth!!! Benjamin a sucker play this weekend

  6. thanks RW for my awesome username, by the way. It rolls right off of my tongue!!!

  7. Pick 2
    CJ Anderson, Ryan Mathews, Carlos Hyde, Doug Martin

    1. Post By FootballKingz

      Hyde + Martin

  8. Burning flex question. …obviously looking for most upside : start Jeremy hill, antonio Andrews, Willie snead, Doug baldwin, or John brown in PPR?

      Hill has the most upside, Brown is the other guy we’d be contemplating in a PPR- actually thing Brown is the safer play, has upside but not as much as Hill

  9. PPR 2 of 3 rbs to start…..Doug martin, ameer abdullah, and latavius murray? Thanks for your killer insight

    1. Post By FootballKingz

      Martin + Latavius

  10. Last minute troubles…..

    Carlos Hyde or Boobie Dixon?

  11. 8 team standard league with one RB/WR flex position I’m deciding; picked up Mike Evans and Blount off waivers this week, have Woodhead. I see Evans as first on your list but seems risky until he shows something. Thoughts?

    And really appreciate this sight and your tools/opinions.

    1. thanks, evans has the most upside. woodhead is probably the safer play though.
