Week 5 Fantasy Football Rankings by Position for Standard Scoring Leagues

We're now a quarter of the way through the 2019 fantasy football season, and we're starting to get some clarity. Patterns are beginning to develop in usage and roles for offensive players, while we're also starting to get a better feel for which defensive matchups are worth attacking.
