Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em: Week 1
Welcome to Week 1 of the NFL season! As a rule of thumb, regarding Week 1, don’t get too cute with start/sit decisions. You drafted who you believe to be studs early in the draft, and these are the players you should start this week. Unless your draft was held weeks (or months) ago, and you have lost players you had earmarked as starters to injury, don’t outthink yourself. This week is mainly about going chalk. Even with that said, there are still some less than obvious decisions that I’m here to help you with making. For Week 1, I am using the Advanced NFL Strength of Schedule created by Jess Jones and utilizing what the bettors think about this week’s slate of games.

Don't let all the dynasty talk fool you though, Shane loves redraft (almost) as much as he does dynasty football. An FSWA member, Shane formerly contributed his redraft insights via FantasyPros.com. At its core fantasy football is a weekly game, regardless of what format you are playing, and helping you make the correct decisions every week is Shane's only goal. Well, and to entertain you. No reason you can't be informed and entertained at the same time.
