Bye weeks are back!
Which means the days of set-it-and-forget-it lineups are likely done for the season (because who knows what your team will look like come fantasy playoff time).
Now is where your managerial skills come into play. It's important to work the waiver wire for solid streaming candidates, especially when it comes to tight ends, defenses and kickers (and occasionally quarterbacks).
However, don't throw out the baby with the bath water. You may not roster a bunch of Jets or Niners this week, but there will be weeks ahead when most of your best players are on vacation.
Week 7 (Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay and Carolina), week 9 (Atlanta, Cincinnati, L.A. Rams and New Orleans), week 10 (Denver, New England, Philadelphia, Washington, Jacksonville and Houston) and week 12 (Kansas City, Minnesota, Arizona and L.A. Chargers) all appear to be stacked with fantasy friendly teams.
Your instinct will be to field the best team possible, but why drop a player who is part of your bigger picture for someone who only might help you for a week?
