Week 5 risers & fallers

Featuring Stefon Diggs, Jameson Williams, and more

October 09, 2025

Yooo!

Fantasy Pros (FP) is still showing some weird movement this week. It’s really difficult to pinpoint what is happening, but these 3 consensus movers below look wrong, and I would expect them to get corrected in the next update to their rankings:

  • Jordan Love (Down -63 on FP → Down -14 on our site)

  • Daniel Jones (Down -120 on FP → Down -26 on our site)

  • Geno Smith (Down -63 on FP → Down -15 on our site)

Outside of these 3 players, everything else seems within a normal range of movement in our consensus rankings.

With that out of the way, let’s highlight some of the ACTUAL risers and fallers this week.

Giddy up.

Week 5 risers & fallers

📈 Risers

+9 📈 Quinshon Judkins (41 OVR, RB10)

  • He’s up to 41 OVR after being 83 OVR on 9/1… he looks like the real deal

+15 📈 Jacory Croskey-Merritt (99 OVR, RB27)

+18 📈 Stefon Diggs (128 OVR, WR51)

  • He’s looked like vintage Diggs the last two weeks. I own him on multiple teams and am hoping there’s more of this to come.

+61 📈 Dillon Gabriel (143 OVR, QB30)

  • Starting QB bump. If you have the depth, he feels like a sell.

+63 📈 Rico Dowdle (160 OVR, RB46)

  • I guess 200+ rushing yards in one game is enough to get people’s attention.

📉 Fallers

-5 📉 Saquon Barkley (28 OVR, RB7)

  • A movement of ±5 spots doesn’t happen often this high in the rankings. The Eagles offense seems off, but maybe a NYG revenge game will get him back on track. I’m still holding.

-7 📉 Jameson Williams (78 OVR, WR30)

  • The boom-bust WR has been mostly bust this year. I expect some better days ahead, but it’s a rollercoaster ride.

-13 📉 Trey Benson (103 OVR, RB28)

  • I still feel like this will be his job when he gets back. I’d be buying the dip if the current owner in your league needs production now.

-22 📉 Juwan Johnson (158 OVR, TE22)

  • He has come back down to earth after a hot start with two duds in back-to-back weeks. I’m sure he’ll provide some serviceable games the rest of the way, but I’d be chasing guys with more upside.

-26 📉 Jalen Milroe (178 OVR, QB34)

  • I assume this is largely due to Darnold playing really well lately. And also some recency bias because Milroe fumbled last week. He’s still a great long-term stash because of how low the cost is compared to his top-12 upside with that potential rushing production.
