Fantasy Football 2018: Start or sit for Week 6
By Donnie Druin
Week 6 of the NFL season is underway. Who should you start or sit when it comes time to set your fantasy football lineup?
We’re nearing the halfway point of the 2018 fantasy football season, and by now, you have a pretty solid idea of your team. For some, it’s championship or bust at this point, with your team dominating the league on a week to week basis. For others, it’s time to wheel and deal your way back into the playoff picture before it’s too late and your team falls behind.
Regardless of where you stand, Week 6 of the NFL season provides another opportunity to get a W in the win/loss column. For those who have stocks in the likes of Alvin Kamara or Golden Tate, that feat will be tougher than usual as both the Detroit Lions and New Orleans Saints are on bye weeks.
So what should we expect this week? Will we see another astonishing Isaiah Crowell rushing performance following his 219 yard performance, or perhaps James Conner can build off a 34 point fantasy performance?
In last week’s start/sit, my crystal ball was anything but reliable, as I told fantasy players to start Blake Bortles and sit Aaron Rodgers. Luck wasn’t on my side for the other positions (who started John Brown for a whopping nine points, anybody?), but like I previously alluded to, it’s a new week, and thus a clean slate to work from.
While I build a time machine to erase my past fantasy advice, let’s take a look at potential start/sit candidates for Week 6.
