Nothing is absolute in fantasy. Based on the talent or depth of your roster, you might need to play someone with a tricky matchup or have to bench someone with a good matchup But from looking at the defenses, injuries, potential game flows, weather and a variety of other variables, here are your start ’emsit ‘em recommendations for Week 1. Week 1 Rankings:Quarterback | Running Back | Wide Receiver | Tight End | D/ST | Kicker...
Fortunately, a few performances by players owned in fewer than 50 percent of Yahoo leagues caught our eye in Week 1. Will Fuller was the biggest rookie breakout, but several other young receivers (and a few veterans) stepped up and served notice that you can throw your preseason rankings out the window. The season has started, and now it’s up to us to adjust. The most sought-after running back – and possibly any player at any position – is going to be Tevin Coleman this week....
Probably not. The only guy in our top 12 who might not have been drafted is Charles Clay, and it’s not as if he’s a “must-play”. His relatively high ranking is due to the Jets’ struggles against TEs last year (8.8 fantasy points per game allowed). Will that carry over to this year? It’s always tough to say when it comes to TE defense, but the Jets still don’t look good on paper, and it’s not as if the guys below him are sure things....
WEEK 15 RANKINGS: QB | RB | WR | TE | DEF | K Week 15 Bounce-Back Team QB Drew Brees, Saints @ Bears (Last week: 235 passing yards, 1 TD, 1 INT): The Bears defense has helped Matthew Stafford and Tony Romo rebound in consecutive weeks and this tonic should work for Brees, who is currently cheaper than three other quarterbacks in DraftKings. Brees’ volatility this season befits a tier-two quarterback and may lead fantasy owners to consider bringing a high-ceiling play off their bench....
Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on your waiver claim), there weren’t many serious injuries in Week 6 (Ben Roethlisberger, LeSean McCoy, Odell Beckhamm Jr., and Christine Michael all returned after first-half ailments), so this week’s suggested adds feature a lot of RB handcuffs, breakout WR3s, and the aforementioned injury stashes like Lewis and Green.

The left wing position has traditionally been one of strength, power, defensive efficiency and complementary play. However, there have always been exceptions to that rule, with names like Bobby Hull, Frank Mahovlich, Michel Goulet and Luc Robitaille among the very top scoring portsiders of all time. DOMINATE YOUR DRAFT: Fantasy Alarm’s 2017 Draft Guide More recently, Washington’s Alex Ovechkin has dominated the left wing position for a decade. But he has seen others overtake him on the position hierarchy the last couple of seasons....

As usual, the top studs are still near the top, but guys with “favorable matchups” are also moving up slightly. We always caution against relying too much on defensive stats at this position, but Randy Bullock (vs. Texans), Dustin Hopkins (vs. Steelers), Zane Gonzalez (vs. Washington), Chase McLaughlin (vs. Lions), and Chris Boswell (@ Chargers) all should get an extra opportunity or two based on the numbers. All can be round in our top 14 this week, too....

MORE MOCK DRAFT ANALYSIS: Round 1 | Round 2 | Round 3 | Round 4 | Round 5 | Round 6 7-1. Toby Gerhart, RB, Jaguars (Bill Bender). Iyer: I thought of taking the Jags’ new workhorse a few picks earlier, but I knew he wouldn’t last the turn. He might end up as a better RB2 than Bender’s fourth-rounder, Frank Gore. 7-2. Fred Jackson, RB, Bills (Will Long)....
There aren’t any players who shoot up from a sixth-round pick to a second-round pick, but there will be some players who see a nice bump in value thanks to those extra three-to-five points a week in the form of extra receptions. They also give relatively unknown players and handcuffs a chance to break out and become decently valuable during the regular season, whether it’s a one-week shooting star or every-week roster staple....
