Week 6 might be my demise!

Last week for buybacks in my pool, and I haven't had to use one yet (Bills-Cardinals-Colts-Rams). I'd like to sneak a pick in with the 49ers (vs Miami) because otherwise you won't be able to confidently pick them until they play Washington in Week 13. Wishing I'd taken them over the Jets in Week 2.
According to my league settings, Team Rankings says that Houston is the #1 pick this week, but that has to factor in rebuys. They're far too risky otherwise. Team Rankings has also been reliable in the past, but I would've lost twice already if I'd blindly followed their picks this season (Colts in Week 1 and 49ers in Week 4). They've got the Saints and Cowboys ranked #2 and #3 this week. Cardinals and Steelers round out the top 5.
I'm really stressing Week 6. No second chances afterwards, and it's a pretty tough slate. I'm leaning Ravens over Eagles on the road because I can live with be knocked out by picking the Ravens. Can't say the same for picking the Chargers (vs Jets). And there's nothing I've seen to indicate that the Cowboys are worth picking over the Cardinals. That's essentially a coin-flip to me.
