Ryan Blaney Has Upside at Watkins Glen After Signing Contract Extension
After signing a contract extension with Team Penske, it's time to keep an eye on Ryan Blaney this weekend. The Team Penske driver is one of the best at long-run speed and managing his tires, and with the falloff expected by Goodyear for this weekend's race, that could play right into Blaney's hands. Additionally, the No. 12 Ford was stout in practice this weekend, ranking fourth-fastest in 10-lap average during Saturday's session. Blaney had a very fast car here at Watkins Glen last year, leading 35 laps from the pole en route to a sixth-place finish, and the same can be said at COTA earlier this season (another road course), where Blaney led 11 laps and finished eighth. At $8.2K on DraftKings and starting seventh, Ryan Blaney is definitely a risky DFS pick, but in large field tournaments, there is an opportunity there to be overweight on a driver who should have a very fast race car on Sunday.
