This final week sweat is the reason we play fantasy football. Fortunately, there were minimal injuries this weekend, but there are still some available players with solid matchups that can be targeted.
Enjoy the final week of redraft season as the nine-month-long ADP value discussion is on deck next. Best of luck in Championship Week and thanks for subscribing and reading this season.
FAAB bids for high-stakes leagues are based on a $1,000 budget. Bids for home leagues are given as a percentage of the budget.

FAAB Bid: 30-50%
A battle for NFC South supremacy may provide a fantasy-friendly environment to wrap up the fantasy season. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have allowed over 250 passing yards in three consecutive games and have struggled to stop the pass since their bye week a couple of months ago. This game has shootout potential as Baker Mayfield has the Buccaneers offense playing at a high level.
Bryce Young, Carolina Panthers

FAAB Bid: 5-10%
Young is coming off his best game as a professional and faces the pass-funnel Jaguars to finish the fantasy season. Young eclipsed 300 passing yards for the first time in his career and added two passing touchdowns. The Panthers who struggled to run the ball against the Packers would be wise to lean on Young’s arm this week.
