Pat Fitzmaurice, one of the most accurate fantasy experts every single season, is joining us in this episode to discuss starts of the week and sits of the week. Since there's little question when it comes to your studs, we'll be touching on fringe players that could pay dividends this week such as Josh McCown (15:07) or Sterling Shepard (45:58). On the flip side, you'll want to consider avoiding the likes of Philip Rivers (19:49), Ameer Abdullah (41:44), and Kelvin Benjamin (53:17) if possible.
