Fantasy football strategy, rankings, and podcasts

With Jason back in the fold, your hosts return to a familiar segment - player trends - and will highlight recent performances of a few positively trending players going into Week 8. The bye-pocalypse of Week 7 is now behind us, but with a forthcoming Thursday Night Football matchup where the top two receivers for the Packers are both out on COVID-19 protocols, that's just further confirmation that your team is never safe. Always be vigilant! This week's podcast will also include news from around the NFL, audience questions, and the (Jay) cutlist. Tune in with your own questions and comments and join us for a drink!

This video/podcast will go live at 9pm CT on Wednesday, October 20, 2021 - it will also be available on all major podcast channels and remain available on YouTube for later review and comments. Join us live and add your comments/questions to the show!

After week 7's "bye-pocalypse" it has to be better from here on out, right? Well, not strictly speaking. The NFL has become more complicated with COVID-19 protocols and short-term IR becoming commonplace issues for fantasy rosters. But we're here to help you out of the weeds and on your way to a fantasy football championship this year, so pay attention to the rankings as they change throughout the week and use them as a tool to determine the value of players to pick up. Guys that I like more than other experts this week: Kenneth Gainwell, Rashaad Penny, Marvin Jones, and Pat Freiermuth. Good luck!

On this episode of the Fantasy Finish Line podcast your host David Biggs (and special guest Jessica Robertson) will wax poetic about their love for bye weeks and what fill-ins are relevant in Week 7, discuss some recent news and player trends, and go through the (Jay)cutlist - guys that did have big names and/or upside at some point, but most team managers should be moving on from going forward.

Fantasy Finish Line co-host Jason Evans is out this week but will return for some Week 8 prognostications!

With bye weeks in full force, decisions this week mean more than ever to your fantasy football team's chances of making the playoffs. If possible, it's also a good strategy to begin to look ahead at future weeks that may cause problems for your squad and try to make trades for players that have already had a bye week so that you have one less thing to worry about! Guys that I value higher than the expert consensus so far this week are Antonio Gibson, Miles Sanders, Brandin Cooks, and Corey Davis.
