Week 6 Fantasy Football WR Rankings: Start of the Week
Terry McLaurin at Baltimore Ravens
The Washington Commanders offense led by QB Jayden Daniels has been excellent this season, currently leading the NFL in scoring. Daniels’ favorite target so far has been Terry McLaurin, who leads the team with a 26.1% target share. Notably, he has 8+ targets in three of the last four weeks and had his highest yardage total of the season in last week’s win over the Cleveland Browns.
The veteran wide receiver takes on the Baltimore Ravens this week, a team that ranks in the bottom three in fantasy points allowed to wide receivers per game per our D-PAC tool. This Ravens defense has allowed four top-12 WR finishes through the first five weeks, a mark that McLaurin should push for this week. Ultimately, make sure he’s in your lineups ahead of your Week 6 fantasy football matchup.
