The Divisional Round of the NFL Postseason is in the books, and with it came the loss of several big-name fantasy players, maybe none more prominent than, well, all of our Detroit Lions! So, it's time to look ahead to the Conference Championship Round, where we have one surprising matchup (Washington at Philadelphia) and a matchup we all have been waiting to see (Buffalo at Kansas City).

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 Conference Championship round player rankings on standard leagues where there are no multipliers. Instead, we'll look at potential production and projected team success.

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

Enjoy!
