Fantasy Football Tight End Streaming Week 8: Kincaid Takes the Reins

We’ve made it through the first giant bye week of the NFL season, and it wasn’t all too difficult to swallow. Scores were certainly down in our fantasy boxscores, but we’ve been gifted with a full slate of games in Week 8, and we can use that full slate to clean up our lineups a little bit, letting go of dead weight in the process. Thankfully, we will venture forth with a clearer view of the tight end position, a gift we have rarely been granted to this point of the season.

For streaming purposes, 4for4’s Schedule-Adjusted Fantasy Points Allowed (aFPA) is a metric we rely heavily on to determine weekly matchup strength. As the season progresses and more data is available, aFPA becomes more and more reliable, using rolling 10-week data. Targets and efficiency metrics are also considered when choosing weekly streamers.

To provide the advice you can implement, candidates for streaming must be rostered in no more than 40% of Yahoo! fantasy leagues.

Week 7 Recap

We’ve had better, but Week 7 wasn’t terrible, as we hit two top-10 plays. The difficult part was our two main streaming plays, who were involved in either an offense that didn’t start moving until the second half (Packers) or faceplanted altogether (Raiders). We can’t fault our process, though; both opposing defenses were among the worst in the league, which says more about those offenses than our fantasy undertakings. Onwards and upwards.
