Once the season starts, the rankings and cheat sheets that seemed so important during your draft don’t really matter. Very few teams are worth starting every week, and it’s generally not a good idea to have more than one D/ST on your team for a prolonged period. Switching up your D/ST based on matchups is not only a valid strategy, but possibly an optimal one. 2017 FANTASY FOOTBALL RANKINGS: Quarterback | Running back | Wide receiver | Tight end | D/ST | Kicker | Top 200...

Of course, new injuries can pop up throughout the week, and several injured players coming off byes or who missed last week entirely will need to be monitored (Chris Hogan, Jordan Reed, Jamison Crowder, etc.).

Fact: Reggie Bush is a running back. Strong opinion: Brandon Pettigrew sucks. My point is it’s been a while since the Detroit Lions have put a capable wide receiver opposite Calvin Johnson. The last time a Lions receiver put up a solid line was 2011 when Nate Burleson finished with 73 catches, 757 yards and three TDs.

Enter third-year back Bernard Pierce, who very quietly was even worse than Rice last year, at least in terms of yards per carry (2.9 for Pierce, 3.1 for Rice). This was after Pierce had a strong rookie season in a limited role, running for almost five yards a pop while racking up 532 yards. Things went south last season, but fantasy owners are probably wondering if that had more to do with the Ravens’ lackluster offensive line/offense or with Pierce’s actual abilities....

Even with no teams on bye, injuries remain an issue. Justin Fields (left shoulder), Matthew Stafford (concussion), Gus Edwards (hamstring), Leonard Fournette (hip), Joe Mixon (concussion), Mike Williams (ankle), Marquise Brown (foot), Ja’Marr Chase (hip), Jerry Jeudy (ankle), JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion), and Gerald Everett (groin) are among the key players iffy to play. We also have to factor in matchups, recent performance, weather, and other factors. Navigating through all the potential starting options, here are our must-starts and start ’em sit ’em recommendations for Week 12....

Ideally, you already have capable backups on your roster, but some owners will likely be scrambling to the waiver wire in an attempt to pick up a few sleepers to help salvage their week. Below are strategy tips and potential lineup replacements to get you through the first set of byes.

The waiver wire is obviously thin at this point, but as injuries mount and concerning matchups arrive, we must prepare for all scenarios. Leading up to Week 15, COVID-19 is running roughshod through NFL locker rooms, so make sure you’re adding depth to your roster, even if you think you’re fully set. WEEK 15 FANTASY: Sleepers | Busts | Start ’em, sit ’em We know not all leagues have enough roster spots to really take advantage of “stashing players,” but for those in deeper leagues (or those who have players on IR or busts worth cutting), our week-ahead watchlist will be useful....

The Bears did fantasy owners a huge favor by ruling Cutler out early, enabling both his owners, and anyone who wanted to gamble on McCown facing a lousy Cowboys secondary, a clear situation. What is going to be less clear is the weather for Monday night. Wunderground.com’s current forecast is for it to be cold with winds around 15 miles per hour. While games have been played under windier conditions, those types of conditions can have an effect on the passing game....
