Welcome to Week 8! We’re now past the mid-point of the fantasy football regular season, and almost at that marker for the NFL season. That happened fast.
If this was Sesame Street, I’d tell you that the word of the day is “receivers”. Over the past 10 or so days, we’ve had two things happening at once: Veteran receivers being traded/shopped, and prominent ones suffering injuries. DeAndre Hopkins to the Chiefs is the latest trade, and Cooper Kupp (who is going to play Thursday night) is reportedly on the trading block. That’s on top of Davante Adams and Amari Cooper being moved last week.
