Four teams on bye. Three top-12 fantasy QBs unavailable. So Patrick Mahomes should be an easy Week 7 start, right? Not so fast.
Matt Schauf and Jared Smola of DraftSharks.com break down the toughest Week 7 fantasy football start-sit decisions, including whether to trust Mahomes against Seattle, start Aaron Rodgers or Kyler Murray, and take a chance on Woody Marks or Mark Andrews.
We also dig into sneaky starters, explain why Ryan Flournoy might be fooling fantasy managers, and plant our flags for big games from Bo Nix and Kirk Cousins.
Plus, we're targeting Jeremiyah Love and Emeka Egbuka in fantasy trades. Find out why both could be smart buys before their values climb.
