Fantasy football strategy, rankings, and podcasts

Here we go, onto Week 8! I hope that your team has managed to get into a good position so far this season, but there is still time to right the ship if you're a few games behind. Don't listen to the hype out there - make smart, rational decisions on your pickups and weekly starts and with a little bit of luck your team will be packing to head to the playoffs later this year! Listen to or watch the Fantasy Finish Line podcast to stay on top of the latest news and analysis - we broadcast live on YouTube weekly on Wednesdays at 9pm CT.

Guys that jump out to me this week to overperform expectations: Joe Burrow, James White, Marquise Brown, Mike Gesicki, and New England Patriots DST.

Pay attention to these rankings throughout the season, as they will continue to evolve based on the latest injury updates, news, and player analysis. Have any specific lineup questions? Feel free to tweet us @drinkfive with any of your questions or comments!

Your hosts Jason and Dave are joined this week by regular contributor Tad Bukowski, and we'll be talking about a number of topics including hot takes on the AFC West and NFC North, some Fantasy Fool's Gold players to avoid over the next few weeks, and our weekly cutlist discussion.

We'll also answer any lineup questions you might have in the chatroom or from Twitter and who knows - maybe a bet or two. You can't force these things!

Most fantasy football discussion centers around easy pickups based on surprise performances over recent weeks, but some really important acquisitions can occur from stashing players that are set to go off later in the season. We'll discuss some deep league and dynasty pickups that will pay off a few weeks down the road, or even as late as the fantasy playoffs.

Your hosts Jason and Dave will also go over lineup questions, select player trends over the past 3 weeks, and a cutlist discussion to end the show. This video features the songs and artists listed below, available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial license: Bridge to Grace - Weapon

With the conclusion of Week 6, we are now almost halfway through the fantasy football regular season. The next few weeks are both crucial (getting those tough wins to secure a playoff position and tiebreakers) and difficult (bye weeks, injuries, and now CVD-IR to deal with). Best of luck as we trudge through the rankings and hopefully find some jewels in the rough to pick up from the wire or start from your bench and pull out the win in Week 7!

Guys that jump out to me this week to overperform expectations: Drew Brees, JaMycal Hasty, Mike Williams, Rob Gronkowski, and Cincinnati Bengals (DST).
