IDP can be a tough mountain to climb, and the waiver wire can be a great way to gain an advantage in your league. Check out these waiver wire adds!
Week one brought many surprises. Everywhere you looked an unheralded player put up a monster stat line. Week one also brought with it a slew of injuries that could change the fortunes of many fantasy teams. Some of the suggestions below will be due to injuries while others are based on a deeper look into Sunday’s action.
This will be the first in a line of weekly articles I will be writing about streaming options at the quarterback, tight end, and D/ST positions. For each position, I will give two streamers that are under 40% owned according to ESPN’s ownership percentages based on the time of writing. I’ll start with quarterback, followed by tight end, then D/ST. Quarterback and D/ST will typically be matchup dependent plays depending on the opposing defense and offense, respectively. The tight end streamers will often be breakout players from the previous week as tight end matchups are much more difficult to predict than quarterback or D/ST. In both sections, the player listed first is my preferred stream and the second option is a backup if the first player is already rostered. With that said, let’s jump right in.

In a shocking turn of events, Antonio Brown has agreed to terms with the Patriots. The idea has been tossed around over the last couple of weeks during Brown’s fallout with Oakland as a complete joke.
No one could have actually guessed, or have thought Antonio Brown would be released by the Raiders and sign with New England, but here we are.
Tom Brady passing to Antonio Brown is a reality. Mr. Big Chest brings his talents to Foxboro for at least a year. Adam Schefter reports the Patriots have agreed to a one year deal worth up to $15m that includes $9m signing bonus, another $1m guaranteed and $5m in incentives.

On Sunday night DraftKings offers another great opportunity to make money. And who doesn’t love the chance to stack dough? Its called “Primetime”, and it’s listed in the Classic section. Your matchups normally include the Sunday night game and the Monday night game. But this week is special. It’s the beginning of the season and there are two Monday night games so there will be a lot of choices. So we will look at the first Match up (Stated Below). And you can refer to “Primetime Volume Two” to cover the other available match up.
In light of LeSean McCoy’s recent release, our writers had a spirited discussion that nobody thought was likely to ever occur four months ago. So in the spirit of “8 Mile”, @DFF_Mike2 and @DFF_Biscuits have decided to have a rap battle about two rookie RBs. Is Miles Sanders or Devin Singletary the better asset in dynasty leagues for year one, for 2020 and beyond, or both?
More times than not in redraft leagues, following Week 1 of the fantasy football season, a player appears.A player, although nearly forgotten in all drafts, is now so sought after that whoever holds the first waiver spot has the opportunity to claim a player, who not only holds value over players drafted rounds deep into the draft, but could essentially change the league’s season narrative. Sometimes these players are exactly what you’d hope they would be. Devonta Freeman, Alvin Kamara, and Phillip Lindsay are a few of these home-run, undrafted gems.
In this weekly article, “Starts, Sleepers & Sits Week,” I will bring you starts; locked and loaded, plug and play and don’t look back players who should have huge weeks., Sleepers; under the radar/low owned players who will vastly outproduce their weekly expectation, pick these guys up and wrack up the points, and sits; guys to leave on the bench this week thanks to a bad match-up or having the odds stacked against them. To help your week one preparation we have starts sits, and sleepers at quarterback, running back and wide receiver.
DraftKings offers a turbo section for the Sunday mid-day clip. Just another way to win money but it starts fast and ends even faster. You can draft players from a select number of evening games. We’ll take a look at the matchups and figure out the best players to pick and go over the players you should avoid. Let’s take a look at the matchups!
Finally, football season has returned, bringing the return of fantasy football along with it. You know, the wonderful game that allows us to draft our dream teams that we all know and love — or hate if we drafted Andrew Luck this year. Speaking of dream teams, that’s exactly what this article will be covering, the Dream Team format on the Draft fantasy football app.
This article is meant to be a quick recap of news from the last week, thoughts going into each week’s games, notes on injuries, guys to put on your radar, etc. It’ll be a quick article every week because we’re all busy Sunday mornings.
I’ll be looking at three player props that I feel have a strong chance of paying out. This article will run the gamut and will include bets such as passing yard totals, the first player to score, and even total tackles for those who love defense.
Football is back and that means it is time to make some money in the world of DFS. Below are a few players I am loving this week at their given DraftKings values. Quarterback Carson Wentz – $5,700 He is back and he is healthy. Over his past 16 played games, Wentz has a stat …
DraftKings Cash Game: Week 1 Picks Read More »
Over at Yahoo Daily Fantasy Sports, they’re kicking off the NFL season with a $1,000,000 GPP tournament that pays out $100,000 to the first-place finisher. In our effort here at Dynasty Football Factory to comprehensively cover and provide analysis on the entire DFS landscape each week, I’m breaking down the best options on Yahoo for both GPPs and Cash games in Week 1. One important thing to note about Yahoo is that unlike some other DFS platforms, the Sunday main slate also includes the Pittsburgh Steelers @ New England Patriots game on Sunday night so there a few extra guys in the player pool to consider. For those just getting started on Yahoo, the scoring system is most similar to FanDuel (.5 point PPR), while the lineup makeup is exactly the same as the two major sites. The biggest difference is pricing, where instead of dealing with thousands of dollars, the budget is just $200 and players are generally priced between $10 (minimum) and the low $40 range. Now that you know the drill, let’s take a look at the Week 1 plays.
The wait is finally over, football is here, and I couldn’t be happier. As excited as I am about the start of real football, it’s the start of DFS that has me over the edge. After four weeks of painful preseason DFS, it’s time to get to the real thing and decide who we’ll be putting in our lineups come Sunday. I always look at Week 1 as a big DFS week because if you hit big, it can really set you up well for the rest of the year. So, without further ado, here my top DFS plays in on FanDuel for Week 1 of the NFL season.
Playing DFS on Fan Duel in Week 1? Cash Game Picks? @DFF_StevenA gives you the best plays, including the best deals for this weekends slate.
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.
Well, the new season is upon us and this is year three of me doing this weekly stock market series. Hopefully, my suggestions have steered you in the right direction and improved your IDP portfolios. NFL teams and fantasy owners are finalizing their rosters. Lots of questions have now been answered and things have become more clear. With those answers in place, we can now look at whose stock went up / down and what this means for your team. I wish everyone the best of luck and may this be the beginning of your quest for the championship!
I was humbled when I was asked to participate in the DFF Redraft Championship. I must have endeared myself to them with my proclivity for win-now squads in dynasty. I’ve never written about a redraft team or league before, so be gentle. Here goes nothing! My look back at my initial draft strategy for the league.
Welcome to week one of the 2019 regular season and …
