If you’re sitting in fantasy football playoff positioning, then no time is more important than right now. Here is where you solidify your legitimacy as a contender, and secure your playoff seeding.

For fantasy football players on the outside looking in, this may be a time to scour the waiver wires and hone your free-agent radar. Seeing those about to bust out is a key skill for winning in league formats.

It may be frustrating to a point, but putting together a winning streak despite a bad start, is a good way to energize your strategy for 2018.

There’s still plenty more to play for, so don’t fade into fantasy oblivion just yet. Besides, who doesn’t like playing the spoiler just a little bit?

Chances are, you have some holes to fill. Let’s see if I can find you some options. Thanks as always for reading, and good luck!
