The Wild Card Round of the NFL Postseason is in the books, and with it came the loss of several bi-name fantasy players, maybe none more prominent than Justin Jefferson. So, it's time to look ahead to the Divisional Round, where we have some very exciting matchups (hello, Ravens at Bills)!

With that said, we're into the next stanza in our fantasy postseason leagues. There are several types of playoff fantasy formats, but I'm focusing these Divisional Round player rankings on standard leagues where there are no multipliers. Instead, we'll look at a combination of potential production and projected team success.

So, here's a look at my postseason fantasy rankings for the second round.

Enjoy!
