Fantasy football managers set lineups for week one NFL action
Summary

Fantasy football managers are evaluating roster decisions ahead of the week one NFL schedule. Dave Richard highlights potential starts and sits for the upcoming matchups, including the New England Patriots facing the Seattle Seahawks on Wednesday night. While Jadarian Price is expected to take over for Kenneth Walker III, analysts suggest caution regarding his immediate impact compared to George Holani. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Rams prepare to host the San Francisco 49ers on Thursday following a travel schedule that involved flying into Australia shortly before kickoff. Defensive additions such as Osa Odighizuwa for the 49ers and Myles Garrett for the Rams are expected to influence the competitive balance of that matchup. Managers are advised to monitor personnel usage and team depth charts to adjust their lineups before kickoff times.
