Yahoo Sports Fantasy football Week 13 cheat sheet: PPR rankings, sleepers
Thanksgiving weekend has finally arrived, and fantasy football managers are most thankful for the fact that every NFL team is in action this week.
No byes to worry about, just wall-to-wall football on Turkey Day and Black Friday, plus Sunday and Monday. Hopefully, you'll get your fill.
Fantasy football rankings for Week 13 are based on the point-per-reception (PPR) scoring used in most seasonal and daily fantasy football formats. One point is awarded for every 10 rushing and receiving yards and one point for every 20 passing yards. Six points are awarded for touchdowns scored, four points for passing TDs and one point for receptions.
Rankings are compiled by Daniel Dobish, TheHuddle.com.
