Fantasy football is a cruel entity that doesn't care if you have Antonio Brown on your fantasy team, owners. It will take Ben Roethlisberger from you, whether you picked Brown in the first round or not, and feel zero remorse for it.
Fantasy football rankings, Week 10: Consensus wide receivers for PPR leagues
The SB Nation fantasy staff rounds up the rankings for the top 50 wide receivers in PPR leagues.
And just like the jerk that fantasy football can be, it will watch you rejoice as Brown accumulates 2 billion yards in one game (OK, 284, but still) against the Oakland Raiders, and then take away the quarterback who let that happen. Landry Jones did hook up with Brown for a long gain in relief of the team's franchise quarterback, but it's hardly a sustainable formula with Jones under center, even for one of the most talented receivers football has to offer.
As for the rest of the receivers across the fantasy football spectrum, bye weeks won't be much of a burden, since the hobbled corps of the Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers won't be much of a detriment to fantasy owners who need a significant output.
The top 50 in PPR leagues stack up as follows.
