Welcome to week five everyone. By now most of you know if you’re hotshots for the playoffs, if you’re stuck in a hole with injuries, and if you’re gonna need to rework your squad. Be sure to use this weeks preview to strengthen your team or re-build them from the ground up.

Also as you know the ESPN projections are awful. With this extension it adds sites such as FantasyPros and FantasySharks to the ESPN team pages, and these projections are much more accurate compared to the ESPN projections.
