Last week, despite terrific recent performances, both Gabriel Jesus and Raheem Sterling were dropped from the starting line up against Burnley. Conventional wisdom said to respond to that by bringing in Aguero… who then played 120 minutes midweek against Wolves in the Carabao Cup. That now throws the Argentine’s chances of starting on Saturday into doubt despite his recent spike in ownership. So what’s the answer here? It would be lovely if we could all avoid these frustrating rotation issues but, unfortunately, Manchester City are the best team in the Premier League....

It's finally here. Week 1. The first test for our fake football teams. A word of advice: Start your stars. It sounds obvious, but fantasy owners will often outthink themselves in Week 1 and bench a stud because of a supposed tough matchup in favor of some scrub facing what they assume will be a soft opponent. A lot has changed since last season, though, so it's tough to make those kind of risky moves this early based on old data....

Guys like Montgomery are almost impossible to incorporate into our weekly rankings. Sure, there’s a lot of upside there, but we really know very little about him or the Packers’ game plan even after seeing him play last week. He could just as easily put up two points as he could 15. He’s a “start ’em, sit ’em” nightmare, and the only real good news in this scenario is that the Packers play on Thursday, making TyMo ineligible for daily fantasy football lineup picks for most contests....

GK: David De Gea - Manchester United, £7.7m, owned in 34.11% of teams DEF: Marcos Alonso - Chelsea, £7.6m, owned in 29.19% of teams It feels as though Alonso has had a bit of a disappointing year thus far in Fantasy, yet here he is as the highest scoring defender of both goals (5) and points (114). His attacking threat has obviously always been there, but the recent improvement has definitely been made defensively where Chelsea have kept more clean sheets in the last 10 matches (6) than any other club....

This is a new season, filled with new rookies, new offensive coordinators, new injuries, and new everything else. There are going to be unexpected breakouts and busts, and we know Week 1 will be chock full of surprises. As such, it’s usually best to go with whomever you picked first in your fantasy draft, but if you’re already itching to play matchups or implement a new strategy, our experts have some sleepers and advice for you....

In addition to the Bills, Chargers, and Cowboys, the Jaguars, Vikings, and Steelers are off, so there are massive holes at virtually every fantasy position (with the possible exception of TE). Finding the right sleepers and streamers won’t be easy, especially with the likes of Nick Chubb, George Kittle, Kadarius Toney, and Saquon Barkley dinged up, but we’ll do our best to provide adequate replacements.
