We're halfway home.
Week 7 marks the halfway point of the regular season in fantasy football—either as the season's mid-point (in 13-week schedules) or the final game of the first half (if the season's 14 weeks).
Either way, by this point, some teams are in desperation mode.
Maybe the players you drafted just haven't panned out. You were hoping that Arizona Cardinals wideout Larry Fitzgerald would play better. Or that Pittsburgh Steelers tailback Le'Veon Bell would actually play.
Maybe injuries have hit your team hard. As a fantasy owner who spent his first two picks in a couple of leagues on running backs Dalvin Cook of the Minnesota Vikings and Devonta Freeman of the Atlanta Falcons, I can sympathize.
