DraftKings: Main Slate GPP Tournament Plays for Week 1

Uncategorized / By /

You made it!Week 1 of the NFL season is upon us and we’re running down some of the best GPP options for the DraftKings main slate of games. With four games playing off the main slate this week a number of fantasy studs, particularly at the wide receiver position, aren’t part of the player pool. While that could lead to some concentrated ownership in certain spots, the beauty of Week 1 is that the player pool and pricing has been out for over a month now, and with so many differing opinions about how not just this week, but this entire season will play out, ownership is likely to be very spread out across the slate.

An Introduction to Best-Ball Basics

Uncategorized / By /

For years the downside to being a draft-aholic was realizing a few weeks into the season that the time and energy associated with setting a few dozen fantasy football lineups every week takes a lot of the fun out of the game. But between the ever-popular BB10s at NFFC, DRAFT once again offering a multi-million dollar best-ball tournament, and countless other best-ball options available out there, the popularity of this particular format continues to increase steadily. With the opening of NFL training camps this past week, fantasy football season is about to get into full swing. It’s likely those of us who play in dynasty leagues probably knocked out our rookie drafts months ago. But most redraft and keeper formats often don’t tee up their draft day until mid-August at the earliest. This means that despite the non-stop stream of NFL news and fantasy implications we diehards are eating up on an hourly basis, we’re actually in a bit of an activity lull right now. This period is the perfect time of year to start pulling the trigger on best-ball drafts, particularly if, like me, you love to draft fantasy football teams.

Melvin Gordon Hold-out Reaction

Dynasty / By /

With the Los Angeles Chargers a little over two weeks away from opening training camp, news broke today that absent a new contract extension, star running back Melvin Gordon does not plan to be there. Adam Schefter reported the news via Twitter this morning. Now Melvin Gordon owners everywhere are forced to hold their breath and cross their fingers that we aren’t on the verge of another Le’Veon Bell situation.

Second Year Wide Receivers to Buy Before It’s Too Late!

Dynasty / By /

With most dynasty rookie drafts wrapped up and training camps still a few weeks away, June is a great time to start evaluating your dynasty roster for 2019 and beyond. With that in mind, below is a deep dive on three wideouts I’m actively looking to target this summer. All three are guys who could easily outperform the cost of the acquisition this preseason, and perhaps start paying off as early as 2019. 

Robert Foster – Buffalo Bills
Latest Dynasty Football Factory ADP: 136 Overall, WR59
My Dynasty Valuation: 119 Overall, WR44
