Week 12 was boom or bust for many fantasy owners. If you picked up and started Nate Burleson, you’re probably feeling pretty good about yourself right now. And if you stayed the course on a few players with sketchy matchups (Antonio Brown vs. Haden, Philip Rivers at KC), you’re likely sitting in a good spot today. On the other hand, anyone who pinned their week 12 hopes on Victor Cruz or Ben Tate is no doubt feeling some angst after both players let them down.
Which experts made the best calls on these players and who delivered the top advice for week 12? Read on to find out in this week’s expert accuracy recap.
