Welcome to Week 16 of the 2023 NFL season and our weekly PPR fantasy football superflex rankings. We know many of you compete in superflex formats that invite/covet second quarterbacks in starting lineups, so these rankings account for that. It might look odd to see the lowest-ranked fantasy passers ahead of typical RB2 and WR2 options, but the potential scoring impact demands it. If your league is of the standard flex variety, just ignore the presence of quarterbacks. Regardless, good luck this week!
These rankings have been updated to take players out from Thursday's and Saturday's games.
1. Christian McCaffrey, 49ers (RB1): Perhaps he won't win the NFL MVP award, but he has nearly 100 more PPR points than any other RB!
2. Tyreek Hill, Dolphins (WR1): Missing Week 15 puts him off schedule to get to 2,000 receiving yards, at least for now.
3. CeeDee Lamb, Cowboys (WR2): His rushing TD in an otherwise quiet Week 15 gave him scores in six consecutive games.
4. Jalen Hurts, Eagles (QB1): The rushing TDs overshadow the fact he has not played nearly as well as last season.
5. Lamar Jackson, Ravens (QB2): Do not sit the QBs in this potential Super Bowl matchup between the Ravens and 49ers.
6. Justin Fields, Bears (QB3)
7. Dak Prescott, Cowboys (QB4)
8. Brock Purdy, 49ers (QB5)
9. Justin Jefferson, Vikings (WR3): He looked healthy and productive against the Bengals, and he should thrive versus the Lions.
10. Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs (QB6): He has reached 17 PPR points in just one of the past seven games, but how can you sit him versus the Raiders?
11. Trevor Lawrence, Jaguars (QB7): He has looked healthy enough the past two games, and he should throw on the Buccaneers.
12. Rachaad White, Buccaneers (RB2)
13. Deebo Samuel, 49ers (WR4): Tepid volume, but seven touchdowns in three games is dominant production.
14. Amon-Ra St. Brown, Lions (WR5): He rebounded nicely from a few quiet outings, in case anyone stopped believing in him.
15. Rashee Rice, Chiefs (WR6): This is what a WR2 looks like, but the rest of the KC passing game has underwhelmed lately.
16. Baker Mayfield, Buccaneers (QB8): He is just a shade outside of the top 10 in QB fantasy scoring for the season, so stop doubting him.
17. Jordan Love, Packers (QB9)
18. Tua Tagovailoa, Dolphins (QB10): He last scored 20 PPR points in Week 8. Fantasy managers expected more than this.
19. Kyler Murray, Cardinals (QB11): He still isn't running much, and you don't roster him for the passing. Perhaps things improve vs. the Bears.
20. Saquon Barkley, Giants (RB3): Expect the volume to return in what is now an interesting matchup with the reeling Eagles.
21. Travis Etienne Jr., Jaguars (RB4)
22. A.J. Brown, Eagles (WR7): Giants permit the fifth-most PPR points to WRs, so perhaps the Eagles fix the offense this weekend.
23. Davante Adams, Raiders (WR8): He and his pals embarrassed the Chargers, but a road game in Kansas City will be a challenge.
24. DJ Moore, Bears (WR9)
25. Raheem Mostert, Dolphins (RB5): Don't we have to assume he gets into the end zone every week?
26. Geno Smith, Seahawks (QB12)
27. Nick Mullens, Vikings (QB13)
28. Breece Hall, Jets (RB6): He has more yards receiving yards than rushing yards since Week 6. We're not complaining.
29. Derrick Henry, Titans (RB7): Maddeningly inconsistent this season, and no guarantee the Titans keep him active rest of the way.
30. DK Metcalf, Seahawks (WR10)
31. Jaylen Waddle, Dolphins (WR11): It's been a weird season, as his 100-yard receiving games have come against the Jets and Pats. Hard to predict.
32. Mike Evans, Buccaneers (WR12): He is one receiving touchdown off the league lead. No reason to think it stops now.
33. Brandon Aiyuk, 49ers (WR13): This dominant offense can keep so many of its options productive.
34. Tommy DeVito, Giants (QB14): The Eagles just permitted Drew Lock to beat them, but how can a fantasy manager rely on DeVito?
35. Russell Wilson, Broncos (QB15)
36. Jared Goff, Lions (QB16)
37. Ryan Tannehill, Titans (QB17)
38. DeAndre Hopkins, Titans (WR14)
39. Garrett Wilson, Jets (WR15): Quiet in two of past three games, but nobody is quiet versus the Commanders' defense.
40. Travis Kelce, Chiefs (TE1): These are not the numbers we expected, but facing the Raiders should help.
41. T.J. Hockenson, Vikings (TE2): This fellow is going to reach 100 catches and 1,000 receiving yards, perhaps this week!
42. Josh Jacobs, Raiders (RB8): A quad injury cost him Week 15, and the Raiders have little incentive to play him.
43. Tony Pollard, Cowboys (RB9)
44. Chris Godwin, Buccaneers (WR16): Perhaps he was on fantasy benches in his giant Week 15, but that was a mistake.
45. De'Von Achane, Dolphins (RB10): He still looks great, but tepid volume is a factor and Mostert remains healthy.
46. Isiah Pacheco, Chiefs (RB11): The team expects him back from his shoulder injury, and fantasy managers should roll with confidence.
47. Bijan Robinson, Falcons (RB12)
48. Calvin Ridley, Jaguars (WR17): The disappointing season continues. He may not get to 1,000 receiving yards.
49. Zay Flowers, Ravens (WR18)
50. Amari Cooper, Browns (WR19)
51. Aaron Jones, Packers (RB13): He looked healthy and busy in Week 15, and he gets to face the Panthers now.
52. Chuba Hubbard, Panthers (RB14): Can't blame him for the team's fortunes. He is running well.
53. DeVonta Smith, Eagles (WR20)
54. Jordan Addison, Vikings (WR21)
55. Tyler Lockett, Seahawks (WR22)
56. Nico Collins, Texans (WR23):
57. Adam Thielen, Panthers (WR24): He has 14 targets the past two weeks, and he is no stranger to facing the Packers.
58. Jahmyr Gibbs, Lions (RB15): The Vikings play responsible defense, but this rookie is pacing toward 1,000 rushing yards.
59. Kenneth Walker III, Seahawks (RB16): He ran all over the Eagles on Monday, and matchups should not matter for him.
60. James Conner, Cardinals (RB17)
61. Ezekiel Elliott, Patriots (RB18)
62. Ty Chandler, Vikings (RB19)
63. Devin Singletary, Texans (RB20)
64. Taylor Heinicke, Falcons (QB18): Honestly, it seems like a bad idea to rely on quarterbacks in this range and below, but best of luck!

67. Sam Howell, Commanders (QB19)
68. Trevor Siemian, Jets (QB20)
