One of the most crucial parts of drafting your fantasy football team is to be aware of the NFL bye weeks. If you draft too many players with the same bye week, you could have no one playing that week and thus lose that game. Therefore, this piece is for you. This piece is completely informational about relevant fantasy players and their teams with their bye week. This list is not ranked either, so don’t think I expect Davante Adams as the 4th best WR of the group. Study these names, and don’t have the same position with the same NFL bye weeks. Plan ahead now. Also, check out my fantasy football draft strategy here too!
