The big day is here, the one we have all been waiting for! No, I am not talking about tonight’s tilt between the 49ers and the Cardinals, pretty sure the TV ratings will be a ghost town. I could care less about the game and it even includes one of the two undefeated teams in the NFL. The Niners are relevant once again and if you do not play fantasy or are a die hard fan, you couldn’t name three players on their roster. Fantasy makes all teams relevant, evokes interest and makes the NFL better, nerd candy. I am constantly filling my bag and sorting through the good and the black licorice.

Very hard to believe that we are past the NFL trade deadline and getting closer to the cut off point to make trades in your league, you better know when that date is! Baffles me to learn that many GMs do not know this information, I play to win, not finish second. Now is the time to taste test your squad. If you learn that it needs spice, the time to make changes is growing near and if you snooze, you will lose. Benches assist through the byes and give you added depth to assist in domination; but there comes a time to start dishing off the depth to build the stout lineup (your bench team is no good if you aren’t winning). Benches should start to roster handcuffs, Defenses with advantageous match-ups in the playoffs and high upside lottery ticket flyers. FAAB needs to be spent but make sure to save around 20-25 bucks in case gold drops in the pan. Hope you all are prospecting big tonight in your neighborhoods and the ghoulish tunes are all queued up for your night away from the pigskin.

Here are some ‘sneaks‘ I have been creepin’ on.

Ownership: 2% ESPN, 2% Yahoo

Week Eight Snap Percentage: 4%

Week Eight: 2 rushes for 6 yards.

Matt Breida is questionable and Raheem Mostert could be limited but is listed as probable. The Cardinals might have to roll with newcomer Kenyon Drake as David Johnson is not expected to play and Chase Edmonds has been ruled out. AZ gonna have a hard time getting things done on offense and I see a couple turnovers aiding field position to San Francisco. The back up to Tevin Coleman is in for a juicy match-up. AZ gives up the eight most yards on the ground. The Niners love to share the workload and WIL-SON sees a good chunk of the Red Zone touches and is a touchdown dependent flex option. I must inquire, Wilson, can you still have fun? I think he can in the Valley of the Sun.
