DFSR’s Daily Fantasy NFL Podcast – Week 8 Game-by-Game Breakdown 10/28/16
DFSR's Daily Fantasy NFL Podcast - Week 8 Game-by-Game Breakdown 10/28/16 DFSR's Doug Norrie and James Davis break down the entire Week 8 NFL slate tht features the value seemingly concentrated to only a handful of games. Devontae Booker should be a chalk play filling in for C.J. Anderson at running back and will likely be the highest owned player going. David Johnson and Devontae Freeman round out some of the value as well. They also discuss Julio Jones, Mike Evans, T.Y. Hilton and the Green Bay attack. Subscribe to this podcast on...
DFSR’s Daily Fantasy NFL Podcast – Week 8 Value Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings 10/26/16
DFSR's Daily Fantasy NFL Podcast - Week 8 Value Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings 10/26/16 DFSR's Doug Norrie and James Davis take a look at some of the values for Week 8 in the NFL. They think this week will be about as chalky as Week 7 with some popular players in fantastic matchups. At QB they discuss Tom Brady, Aaron Rodger and Jameis Winston who all rate out in plus games. It's a little closer with running backs where some interesting price plays are cropping up. David Johnson isn't one of those guys but he should see heavy volume. Meanwhile they discuss Devonta Freeman, Ty Montgomery and Jacquizz Rodgers. And finally with WR/TE it should be chalk again with Julio Jones, Mike Evans, Randall Cobb and Jack Doyle.

Daily Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Value Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings – Week 7 10/23/16
Daily Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Value Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings - Week 7 10/23/16 We covered our main cash game plays in our Week 7 Picks where we touched on Mike Evans, Julio Jones and Amari Cooper at wide receiver and Jimmy Graham and Hunter Henry at tight end. For this piece we will touch on some of the cheaper targets you can use for salary relief and/or GPP upside. 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. START YOUR FREE 3 DAY TRIAL! WIDE RECEIVER AND TIGHT END VALUES Tyrell Williams FD 6100 DK 4400 Opponent ATL Proj Points FD - 13.47 DK - 15.82 Travis Benjamin FD 6100 DK 6100 Opponent ATL Proj Points FD - 12.27 DK - 14.56 Dontrelle Inman FD 5600 DK 3300 Opponent ATL Proj Points FD - 10.49 DK - 12.74 I’m putting them all in the same write up because they are all sort of contingent on each other in that one of these guys seems to emerge each week. But not all of them. Three weeks ago it was Inman who went 7/120/1 against the Saints. Then two weeks ago it was Benjamin going 7/117 against the Raiders. Meanwhile Tyrell Williams has been the steadiest of the bunch, but hasn’t hit that extreme upside yet even with the targets. I see all three as values in their own respect and you can tell the uncertainty even on the sites’ pricing. Consider Williams and Benjamin have flip-flopped prices on FD and DK. The Falcons are a bottom third defensive team this season and it stands to reason the Chargers will be playing catch up in this game. I like taking the value where I can get it, especially with Williams on DraftKings considering he’s second on the team in targets. Kendall Wright FD 5000 DK 3700 Opponent IND Proj Points FD - 10.75 DK - 13.33 Here’s to hoping he can see more of the field. Wright barely played last week in terms of snaps and yet shredded the Browns for 8/133/1. You won’t see that kind of game out of many WR4s and one has to wonder how long Wright is buried on the WR depth chart. Tajae Sharpe can’t do anything and Andre Johnson gets almost no separation. Yet both are above Wright in terms of snaps. If you think this is the...
Daily Fantasy Football Running Back Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings – Week 7 10/23/16
Daily Fantasy Football Running Back Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings - Week 7 10/23/16 We covered our main cash game plays in our Week 7 Picks where we touched on Le'Veon Bell, Christine Michael and Demarco Murray. For this piece we will touch on some of the other strong plays to consider on a week chock full of RB's. You can still access our 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. START YOUR FREE 3 DAY TRIAL! RUNNING BACKS Jacquizz Rodgers FD 5600 DK 4300 Opponent SF Proj Points FD - 15.31 DK - 16.86 I suspect he’ll be a pretty chalky play this week considering the price and the potential usage. Last game with Charles Sims and Doug Martin out of the lineup Rodgers carried the ball 30 times while also catching 5 balls out of the backfield. You won’t see that kind of volume from really anyone else and it’s out of bounds to consider him a favorite to touch it that many times this week. But he has a dream matchup against the 49ers who rank near the bottom of the league in run defense and doesn’t have anyone competing with him for touches. My guess is he’s the highest owned back on the main slate of games and probably for the whole weekend. No reason to fade him as you’re getting Rodgers at way below market value and he isn’t exactly sneaking up on anyone. Mike Gillislee FD 5300 DK 3000 Opponent MIA Proj Points FD - 12.07 DK - 13.19 I was hoping to have a bit more Shady McCoy news before posting this RB article, but alas the NFL news cycle doesn’t always conform to our publishing schedule. Jerks. But with McCoy looking increasingly doubtful there will be a lot of carries opening up for the Bills’ backfield. Gillislee isn’t in the same “last man standing” situation as Rodgers above, but he has gotten a majority of the secondary touches when McCoy hits the sidelines. There are other bodies in the mid though so I can’t call GIllislee safe even if Shady sits, with Jonathan Williams around for starters. But last game with McCoy a little banged up, Gillislee saw 10 carries (10/60/1) and has caught a few balls out of the backfield. Miami is a weaker defense (the performance against the Steelers last week aside) and the Bills are rather committed to the run. Jeremy Hill FD 6800...
DFSR’s Daily Fantasy NFL Podcast – Week 7 Game-by-game Breakdown 10/20/16
DFSR's Daily Fantasy NFL Podcast - Week 7 Game-by-game Breakdown 10/20/16 DFSR's Doug Norrie and James Davis break down each game on the Week 7 NFL slate starting with a (finally) interesting Thursday affair with the Bears and Packers. On the main Sunday slate there looks to be a ton of value with guys like Jacquizz Rodgers set to handle the load for the Bucs and some other running back value creeping to the top. It also looks like we are going to be able to spend up at wide receiver with WR1s like Julio Jones and Mike Evans possibly garnerning a high usage Subscribe to this podcast on...
