Athlon's Playoff Prospectus glances at the current fantasy rankings and what the schedules look like heading into the final few weeks of the college football regular season.

-Wide receivers ranked #5 through #10 are on bye in the second week of the playoffs. Dez Bryant is also on bye as well that week. In fact, only four of the top 12 receivers play in week 13. Check those waiver wires now!

-The highest rated receivers to play in all of the next three weeks are Chris Williams, Percy Harvin and Hakeem Nicks. These three guys could be the top ranked fantasy options at wide receiver as the season head to into the playoffs.

* - Still available on the waiver wire in 14-team, 3 RB Athlon league.
** - TFP: Total Fantasy Points as of Nov. 9, 2008. A blank box indicates a bye week.
