DFSR's Daily Fantasy NFL Podcast - Week 15 NFL Game-by-Game Breakdown 12/16/16 DFSR's Doug Norrie and James Davis return to break down week 15 in the NFL, and it's looking a little grim. Lots of good offenses against good defenses, a considerable lack of wide receivers, and a number of good-but-not-great running backs to fill your plate this week. Still, the guys pick out value from each game and talk about which slates they are targeting to maximize their earnings this weekend. They also break down the current state of injuries for each team, and discuss where you might find a little sneaky upside if certain key players wind up sitting. Subscribe to this podcast on...

DFSR’s Daily Fantasy NFL Podcast – Week 14 Value Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/8/16
DFSR's Daily Fantasy NFL Podcast - Week 14 Value Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/8/16 Coming off a crazy week in the NFL, DFSR takes a look a position-by-position breakdown for Week 14. At quarterback this week there's a guy like Andy Dalton who gets a fantastic matchup against the Cleveland Browns who are about as bad as it gets on defense. Then they talk about Matt Barkley and Aaron Rodgers who might actually be a little off the radar this week. At running back it basically starts and stops with Le'Veon Bell and David Johnson who are so above and beyond the rest of the field. And finally, at wide receiver and tight end they discuss how we might not want to spend all the way up but can look at guys like Golden Tate and Tyrell Williams. Subscribe to this podcast on...
Daily Fantasy Football Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings – Week 14 12/8/16
Daily Fantasy Football Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings - Week 14 12/8/16 After a week 13 that saw the DFSR lineup optimizer cash in every slate on FanDuel and DraftKings, we're feeling pretty good about our prospects for week 14. This is an NFL season unlike any in recent memory. There are like 8 teams with decent running games, the big name wide receivers are all over the place, and tight end is as bad as any position I can ever recall. That said, now that byes are over, we get access to a nice big player pool to have it all come together. Let's get it on. In case you didn’t notice, we just released our brand new NFL DFS suite of tools including full projections, optimal NFL lineups and our Player Lab, which includes filters to help you create NFL lineups for FanDuel and DraftKings for any format. It’s a set of tools well beyond anything we’ve ever had, and something we feel will help our users *ahem* tackle the NFL season.

QUARTERBACKS Aaron Rodgers FD 8000 DK 6400 Opponent SEA Proj Points FD - 22.86 DK - 23.47 Some people will be off A-Rod this week after a down performance against Houston, but I won't be. First of all, the sites have continued their trend of undercutting price too deeply based on match-up, and Rodgers is just a steal at $8k on FanDuel and $6.4k on DraftKings. Second of all, when you take weather into context, his week 13 performance was actually great. He completed 67% of his passes (which as I noted last week has been his average since week 3), threw 2 picks and no interceptions, and did all of this in terrible weather. That shouldn't be as big an issue this week. As for the match-up, Seattle has been good on defense this year, but there a few steps behind the days when they were the clear cut #1 defense in the league. They're a top 10 passing defense, but they rank behind Houston (Rodgers' Week 12 opponent), and I see no reason that Rodgers shouldn't go back to being the guy who scored 23 fantasy points for 6 straight weeks before last week's anomaly. Matt Barkley FD 6200 DK 5000 Opponent DET Proj Points FD - 18.69 DK - 19.74 Who is the real Matt Barkley? Is it the guy who threw for 316 yards and 3 touch downs against Tennessee, or the guy who turned the best possible match-up...
