Doug Shain - RotoBaller

642 articles

My name is Doug Shain. I have been playing a variety of fantasy sports for years, and have been covering NHL and NFL DFS for nine years, though I've been a fan of the NFL for over 40 years. I’ve received numerous FSWA nominations, including DFS Writer of the Year and a win for NHL Writer of the Year. I've been playing fantasy sports for 37 years, starting in my father's home league when I was just 11 years old. I'm an expert at breaking down NHL matchup data to best provide you tournament-winning advice to build your DFS lineups. My favorite part of this job is the time I spend in our Discord talking to our members. I love working with the community to build the best lineups possible. You can find me on Twitter @bankster17.

Skyy Moore - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

NFL DFS Lineup Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel: Preseason Week 3 (Saturday, 8/23/25)

We did it, team, we made it through the three-week slog that is the NFL preseason. Tonight’s four-game slate won’t be nearly as juicy as last night, where we saw multiple starting quarterbacks play into the second quarter. Outside of Miami and possibly Las Vegas for a series or two, we won’t see any team […]


Robert Tonyan - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

NFL DFS Lineup Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel: Preseason Week 3 (Friday, 8/22/25)

We have reached the penultimate slate of the 2025 NFL preseason, and if last night’s two-game slate is any indication, we are in for a lot of backups and guys fighting for their careers in these four games. Sure, we may get a series or two of Caleb Williams and Patrick Mahomes, but there are […]

NFL DFS Lineup Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel: Preseason Week 3 (Thursday, 8/21/25)

It feels like we just started our 2025 NFL preseason journey, but here we are at the final week before the regular season. There are three days of games this weekend, and I’ll be here with you every step of the way. Tonight features two games, with the Patriots heading to New Jersey to face […]

NFL DFS Lineup Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel: Preseason Week 2 (Sunday, 8/17/25)

Week 2 of the 2025 NFL preseason wraps up with a two-game slate on Sunday and an island game on Monday night. Sunday’s slate, which this article will dive into, is highlighted by the 2025 preseason debut of Caleb Williams in the new-look Chicago Bears offense. Buffalo coach Sean McDermott is being coy about Josh […]

NFL DFS Lineup Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel: Preseason Week 2 (Saturday, 8/16/25)

Saturday brings us two big slates of preseason football, with six games in the early window and five games in the evening. This article will focus on the five-game slate starting at 7 p.m. This slate is highlighted by the preseason debut of Justin Herbert, who has never taken a snap in the summer in […]

NFL DFS Lineup Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel: Preseason Week 2 (Friday, 8/15/25)

Week 1 of the 2025 NFL Preseason is in the books, but never fear, because Week 2 has another four days of games for our enjoyment. Tonight we have a two-game slate, and if this week follows the example set last week, then we can expect some fireworks. The over was hitting regularly last weekend […]

NFL DFS Lineup Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel: Preseason Week 1 (Saturday, 8/9/25)

After back-to-back nights of three-game slates, tonight we get a much larger six-game slate. With twice as many teams and players to choose from, I’m going to focus my lineup builds on stacks in much the same way I would for a regular NFL Sunday slate. I’m also going to have a much smaller pool […]

NFL DFS Lineup Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel: Preseason Week 1 (Friday, 8/8/25)

We are back at it tonight with our second straight three-game preseason slate. The NFL debut of Shedeur Sanders highlights tonight’s array of games as the Browns head to Carolina to face the Panthers. While Sanders is the primary focus of the media, several offensive players on the Browns should make their way onto your […]

NFL DFS Lineup Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel: Preseason Week 1 (Thursday, 8/7/25)

I know it’s just preseason, but the excitement I feel every year for this week is indescribable. Football is back! Lineup-making is back! DFS is back!
