With lineups set to lock for the very first time in less than two hours, you've still got time to do research to make the right calls. But not much time. You don't want to get the season off to a bad start, and unfortunately, Thursday's game provides some pitfalls for Fantasy players. The Packers are chock full of Fantasy options to consider, but they're coming off a down season collectively, are installing a new offense, and have to face a fearsome Bears' defense. The Bears, on the other hand, head into the season with some welcome continuity, but enough questions about usage to make them tough to trust as a unit, too. And that's not touching on ... well, everything else. Melvin Gordon's holdout, Antonio Brown's pending suspension, and even concerns about Julio Jones' contract status. There's a surprisingly large amount for Fantasy players to sort through for Week 1, and our first decision point is looming. Make sure you're setting the right lineup with Week 1 previews from Jamey Eisenberg, Dave Richard, and Heath Cummings. Let's go get that first win. |
