Too often, fantasy football “analysts” brag about what they got correct but rarely take accountability for what they got wrong. I would like to change that trend when it comes to the advice I offer. Here are my Must Start/Sit players for the week and their stat lines followed by their DSE Dynasty format points. Using graphics, I will also evaluate my advice. The legend for the graphics is as follows:
✅ – I got it right and you benefited by my information.
❌ – I got it wrong and you were hurt by my prognostication.
↔️ – My advice neither helped nor hurt you; the player performance was middle of the road for their position.

All said and done, I correctly steered fantasy GMs toward/away from 14 players and was only wrong with three-player forecasts. With 11 players, taking my advice did not help or hurt your team.
