Fantasy Football Rankings: Hayden Winks' RB Blueprint for Week 5

October 7, 2026

Jahmyr Gibbs continues to dominate fantasy football circuits, leading the running back rankings for Week 5 with a projected 132.5 total yards and 20.0+ half-PPR points per game. His 105.1 half-PPR points through four weeks already place him among the top 14 RBs in league history, reinforcing his status as the undisputed RB1 in high-usage offenses this season.

Meanwhile, Bijan Robinson remains a consistent threat, averaging 22.9 half-PPR points per game over 14 outings with Michael Penix Jr. and delivering RB5-level production in Monday Night Football despite limited targets.

The Ravens, though a formidable defense, have struggled to contain fantasy running backs, allowing the 21st-most fantasy points per game to backs averaging 100+ yards, which bodes well for Robinson’s matchup this week. Jonathan Taylor, despite a career-low 4.1 yards per carry, maintains elite fantasy relevance thanks to a career-high target share and a projected 108.5 yards against the Steelers, who have been vulnerable to high-scoring backs despite their defensive line strength.

Kyren Williams, meanwhile, has taken on a larger role in the Buffalo Bills’ backfield, overshadowing Blake Corum’s production in recent weeks.
