Week 1 Fantasy Football Starts/Sits + Game Picks

Ever since my playoff predictions last season, I’ve been M.I.A. chasing some pretty great opportunities (you can now find my official stuff on RotoBaller and my fantasy rankings on FantasyPros). I’m still doing that grind, but as for BetLegg…we are so back.

After out-performing NFL Network every single week last season (no need to name names, but you know 👀), I couldn’t be more pumped to bring you my official Week 1 Starts/Sits and Game Picks.

Of course, I will not be listing Bijan Robinson or Puka Nacua, you’re starting them every week.
