MIAMI, Oct. 8 (UPI) -- Puka Nacua and Emeka Egbuka lead my Top-50 fantasy football wide receiver rankings for Week 6.

Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jaxson Smith-Njigba and Rome Odunze join Nacua and Egbuka in my Top 5. Ja'Marr Chase, Davante Adams, George Pickens, Deebo Samuel and A.J. Brown are among my other Top-10 options.

My top free agent targets for Week 6 are available here.

All of my positional rankings will be updated until Week 6 kickoffs. Players also will be moved out of or adjusted within the rankings based on injuries. Be sure to monitor your fantasy football team lineups.

Players from the Minnesota Vikings and Houston Texans, who are on bye, should be benched or, in some cases, dropped from rosters. Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants players, who played Thursday, were also removed from my rankings.
