High-Priced/Low-Owned Stack Kyler Murray FD 8200 DK 7800 Opponent LAR Proj Points FD - 21.76 DK - 22.42 DeAndre Hopkins FD 7600 DK 7700 Opponent LAR Proj Points FD - 10.3 DK - 12.8 On the surface, this appears to be a bad matchup against the Rams talented defense but not so fast. They have not been that impressive early on giving up the 8th most passing through three weeks with most of that coming from Tom Brady a week ago(432 yards). Kyler not only brings the same passing upside as Brady and has a very comparable stable of weapons, but he has also adds big upside with his legs(5.7 att per game) and the Rams have also given up the 8th most rushing yards(22.3) per game to QB's. Like I mentioned above, the Cards have a very diverse pass-catching group led by superstar Deandre Hopkins. After commanding a huge target share in this offense a year ago, he has only received 18 targets through three games which is a bit concerning and the reason I won't have exposure in cash games. For GPP formats, I love pairing Kyler with Nuke as he is going to be very low-owned due to the combined lack of volume early on and the other top wideouts in plus spots. The matchup also drives more to Hopkins on the outside as Jalen Ramsey is the top corner and has been running over 55% of his coverage in the slot which could neutralize Kirk and Moore this week as tough matchups affect young players much more than the vets. You can't hold down an elite receiver for long and I love targeting this very high upside stack even more when it will be low owned. Lock and load!

Arizona Cardinals Passing Game Kyler Murray FD 9000 DK 8300 Opponent JAX Proj Points FD - 26.25 DK - 27.07 DeAndre Hopkins FD 8500 DK 8200 Opponent JAX Proj Points FD - 16.51 DK - 20.5 Rondale Moore FD 5600 DK 5000 Opponent JAX Proj Points FD - 9.44 DK - 11.54 Chase Edmonds FD 6600 DK 5700 Opponent JAX Proj Points FD - 12.07 DK - 13.62 As you can probably tell from the list of players above, what I like about the Cardinals is the number of ways we can stack them. If we are talking cash games, I absolutely love running Kyler naked(get your head out of the gutter) as he has distributed the targets very evenly through two weeks. He is also completed 73.5% of his pass attempts and is averaging 344 yards passing and 25.5 yards rushing per game. Here is a look at the target distribution: Rondal Moore - 13 DeAndre Hopkins - 12 A.J. Green - 12 Chase Edmonds - 9 Christian Kirk - 9 Maxx Williams - 8 Like I mentioned in the opening, there are a ton of ways to stack around Kyler making the Cards my favorite team to multi-enter in GPP formats. At this point, DeAndre Hopkins is a game-time decision but if he plays I think he will be lowered owned for a couple of reasons starting with the target list above and the very high cost of stacking the two together. What I do like is the matchup as the Jaguars have allowed the 6th most passing yards to quarterbacks and the 9th most receiving yards to wideouts through two weeks. They have also allowed their opponents #1 wideouts in Brandin Cooks(5-132-0) and Cortland Sutton(9-159-0) to go crazy and Nuke is on a completely different talent level. The price is going up on Rondale Moore who leads the team in targets and saw his offensive snap % go up from 29% in week one to 46% last week. By no means, do I think this is his ceiling price so I will be...

Game Stack - Cowboys vs. Chargers We have to wait until the afternoon but this game has the highest total on the slate and is, by far, my favorite place to start my teams in almost every single format. I prefer both teams passing games and if I had to choose just one, it would be the Chargers' side as the Cowboys' pass defense picked up where it left off in 2020, looking absolutely terrible. Add on that they will lose pass rusher DeMarcus Lawrence and both starting safeties are questionable this week(Wilson did not practice all week & Wright was limited Thurs/Fri). With all that said let's take a look at both sides. Justin Herbert FD 7600 DK 6700 Opponent DAL Proj Points FD - 24.18 DK - 24.88 Keenan Allen FD 7400 DK 7000 Opponent DAL Proj Points FD - 16.18 DK - 19.7 Mike Williams FD 5600 DK 6100 Opponent DAL Proj Points FD - 12.42 DK - 14.77 Like I mentioned above, I favor the Chargers side a little bit more in this game as a pick to win and for DFS. It starts with quarterback Justin Herbert who is not only cheaper on both sites but is coming off a week where he threw the ball 47 times, eight most of any quarterback to start the season. He only completed 31 of those passes and was only able to throw for one TD as Washington's redzone defense held its own but he did end up with 337 yards and was rated the 4th most aggressive QB in week one(via NextGen Stats). What I really like about both these teams are the concentrated targets to a smaller number of players. For the Chargers, Keenan Allen(13) and Mike Williams(12) drew 25 targets between them(54%) with no other receiver having more than five. It's a small sample size but I feel the Cowboys are going to be much stronger vs. the run than the pass so projecting Herbert for 40+ pass attempts in this projected high-pace game doesn't feel crazy at all and if...

Game Stack - Titans vs. Cardinals Ryan tannehill FD 7700 DK 6500 Opponent ARI Proj Points FD - 20.34 DK - 20.91 A.J. Brown FD 7800 DK 7100 Opponent ARI Proj Points FD - 13.26 DK - 15.69 Julio Jones FD 7000 DK 6800 Opponent ARI Proj Points FD - 12.02 DK - 14.39 First of all, this game has the 2nd highest total on the slate featuring two teams who run a Top 10 pace. Let's start with the Titans who feature several players who may not be Top 5 highest owned at their positions. It starts with at QB with Ryan Tannehill who comes in the same price range as the projected highest owned QB on the slate, Jalen Hurts. This gives us leverage over the field and it's not like we are losing a ton of upside as the Cards ranked mid-pack against the pass last year and look to be in decline coming into 2021. He also gets even more weapons in 2021 as the team added Julio Jones in the offseason to play opposite of A.J. Brown. That is a lethal combo especially with the attention defense's have to pay to Derrick Henry who can easily blow up a game at any point. Most of my TEN stacks will have Tannehill and just ONE of the two wideouts but I will mix in some double-wideout lineups to maximize my upside should they both go off! Kyler Murray FD 8400 DK 7600 Opponent TEN Proj Points FD - 22.55 DK - 23.27 Deandre Hopkins FD 8200 DK 7800 Opponent TEN Proj Points FD - 16.23 DK - 19.96 Rondale Moore FD 4900 DK 3000 Opponent TEN Proj Points FD - 7.63 DK - 9.3 The Cardinals are a slight road underdog(+3) here and projected to be the highest owned side of this potential high-paced, shootout. It makes sense as they face a Titans defense that ranked 29th in passing yards per game allowed and 28th in fantasy points per game to wideouts. While Kyler was ranked a little lower in terms...
DFSR Projections Finish First In FanDuel Milly Maker
Week 1 of the NFL season started out great with a FanDuel Million dollar sweat to start things off. Sure, there was a lot of chopping up at the top, but DFSR’s Doug Norrie was one of the group there.

NFL Best Ball Strategy for DraftKings – 2021 Season
NFL Best Ball Strategy for DraftKings - 2021 Season Welcome back football fans. It feels like ages ago we were betting on Super Bowl props and watching Tom Brady add to his legendary career. For the first time in years, I have actually found time to start my NFL research in July. I have also made a huge shift in what kind of fantasy football I am playing in 2021. I used to play 15+ season long leagues on Yahoo but with my full-time career doing DFS content that has dramatically fallen off. Over the last couple of years specifically, I have transitioned most of my Yahoo bankroll allocation to Best Ball leagues. They are a perfect fit for people who play DFS each and every week on DraftKings, FanDuel, PrizePicks, and others. You draft your team of players pre-season and that's it. No in-season roster moves or start/sit decision or remembering to set said lineup(this happened alot with how busy DFS Sunday am is). I will be playing almost exclusively on DraftKings so all of my references will refer to that throughout the article. Let's start by looking at the draft, your roster requirements, scoring, and then get into some strategy. Now’s your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NFL and MLB optimizers and our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Draft Types You have two choices when first getting started. You can sign up for a Slow Draft(8 hour time limit to pick) or Fast Draft(30 seconds per pick). While I have exposure to both formats, I much prefer the Slow Draft as it gives me more time to analyze everything and make a more informed decision with each pick, which is crucial in best-ball format as you don't get any transactions throughout the season. Contest Types There are also two types of contests you can enter on DraftKings, as well. Sit & Go's These contests run the entire NFL regular season(Week 1-17) and leagues are made up of anywhere from 3-12 teams. Tournaments These are larger prize pool contests that consist of multiple 12-team leagues and are split up into four rounds: → Round 1(Week 1-14) - you play within your 12-team league and the Top 2 teams move on to Round → Round 2(Week 15) - You are randomly placed against another advancing team(they will avoid putting you up against yourself if you have multiple teams advance). Win and move on! → Round 3(Week 16) - You are randomly placed against another advancing team(they will avoid putting you up against yourself if you have multiple teams advance). Win...
