In addition to winning the 2017 Coca-Cola 600 on fuel mileage, Austin Dillon has actually been a fairly consistent performer at Charlotte with three top-10 finishes in his last five starts, with one of the exceptions being the 2022 Coca-Cola 600, where he was attempting to clear Kyle Larson for the lead on an overtime restart and crashed. However, most of those races came with crew chief Justin Alexander, and he's been much worse without him than with him historically. Additionally, with him qualifying 26th and Kyle Busch 24th, it seems like Richard Childress Racing doesn't have a great deal of speed, but if there's anywhere they might contend, it's likely an intermediate track. However, his run in the Xfinity Series race on Saturday was not inspiring, as the full-time Cup driver finished behind his Xfinity regular teammates Austin Hall and Jesse Love. On paper, Dillon seems like a possible good DFS choice given his recent record, but he's likely to finish worse on Sunday than he has recently.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller
