Fantasy Football RB rankings: No. 5 Le’Veon Bell, Steelers

Many will have Jack Butland between the posts but if you’re looking for alternative defensive cover, Marc Muniesa costs just 4.5 and looks to be a fixture of Mark Hughes’s backline.

So much of your fantasy football success rides on a solid draft, and it only takes a few overvalued draft picks to decimate hopes of a successful season. In other words, over the course of the entire year, they were all backups.

A two-QB league completely alters the value of a guy like Eli Manning. For that matter, so should Alex Smith and Andy Dalton. However, there’s one rule that’s become an overall consensus: don’t draft a quarterback round one. That’s not the fault of one-QB leagues.

Brandin Cooks: This could be a big fantasy year for Cooks, as he’s looking to be Brees’ top target.

This global break is, in fact, one of the more pivotal junctures in the fantasy football season.

Why a two-quarterback league?

Not sure how fantasy football works?

If you’re going to play your wildcard during the worldwide break, click “play wildcard” this Saturday as you’ll then be able to tinker all you want throughout the fortnight and click “confirm” on the Transfers page as many times as you like. He’s getting love from all over that fantasy community as a potential breakout player, but don’t we do this every year with a young up-and-coming QB? A large percentage of the fantasy community is basically drafting on rote, and just changing the names from year to year. If you’ve got 7.0 going, their low ownership may just pay dividends in your mini-leagues this week.

It wouldn’t be fair to call Mr Moneybags a disappointment because he’s accrued 12 points in his first three games but a lot more will be expected of Raheem Sterling than one assist a month. Just as important, another player in your starting lineup lessens the impact of an outlier performance, giving skill a better chance to win out in its eternal struggle against luck.

Some people suggest waiting to grab a quarterback and stealing all of the top options at running back and wide receiver, but that can only be successful to a fault. You have to admit, though, letting Santiago Vergini leave and ending up with a weaker back four takes some doing. What should my strategy be?

Marshawn Lynch (Seattle): Lynch isn’t set up to be a bust, but he could surely disappoint as a first round pick. Understand that all quarterbacks will be priced higher in this format.

AFC Bournemouth’s Callum Wilson was the top scorer in Gameweek 3. As quarterback Ryan Tannehill, along with young receivers Jarvis Landry and Devonta Parker develop, less and less attention can be focused on stopping the ‘fins run game.

Riyad Mahrez continued his impressive form with 10 points and the Leicester City forward is now the top-scoring player in Fantasy Premier League with 35 points. Have fun.
