Week 12 Consistency Reports - Start/Sit Decisions

Week 12 is a weird week for fantasy football. The short week for six teams made a lot of players tough to trust, and now owners are left searching for value on a very reduced Sunday slate. We have also seen the Rams and Chiefs lost from the week as they are on a bye. […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Football Picks (Week 11): NFL DFS Lineups

Anytime you lose both the Rams and the Chiefs from a slate you are set for a weird week. Throw in the Patriots on a bye and there are a lot of big names missing in Week 11. However, thankfully we still have the Chargers and the Saints on the slate. Interestingly this week the […]

Week 11 Consistency Reports - Start/Sit Decisions

I cannot believe it is Week 11 already! This season has flown by and things in the NFL are starting to settle down. The good teams are really starting to distinguish from bad and the pretenders are falling away a little bit. The same goes for the players in the consistency ratings. The best running […]

Time To Move On From Tom Brady?

Sunday of Week 10 was not a good day for Tom Brady and the Patriots offense. They could not get anything going against an admittedly strong Titans defense. However, the ineptitude of the way the Patriots offense played made the Dallas Cowboys performance against the Titans look somewhat heartening. Now the whole offense was an […]

Week 10 Consistency Reports - Start/Sit Decisions

I cannot believe it is Week 10 already! This season has flown by and things in the NFL are starting to settle down. The good teams are really starting to distinguish from bad and the pretenders are falling away a little bit. The same goes for the players in the consistency ratings. The best running […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Football Picks (Week 10): NFL DFS Lineups

We have a lot of good offenses on the main slate this week, with the Saints, Chiefs, Rams, Falcons, Patriots and Chargers all suiting up Sunday. The only offenses really missing are the Steelers and Panthers who met last night. In addition, a couple of the stingier defenses are out of the slate, with the […]

Dez Bryant Joins The Saints - Fantasy Impact

With the news Wednesday that Dez Bryant was signed by the New Orleans Saints, there are many questions which need to be answered. First, what does this mean for Bryant himself? Is he about to become a fantasy superstar in an explosive offense, or is he just a distraction for defenses on the field while […]

Return To Sender - Faces In New Places Who Have Disappointed

We are now nine weeks into the season and we have had enough time to evaluate what roles players have on their teams. Barring injury, those roles are unlikely to change a huge amount at this stage. We saw a lot of good players change teams in the offseason. Some have had success, like Kirk […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Football Picks (Week 9): NFL DFS Lineups

Week 9 was always going to be a tough week to find value. We have six teams on a bye and a Sunday Night Football matchup between Green Bay and New England. However, fortunately for our DFS slates the Rams and the Saints matchup is on the afternoon slate rather than in prime time. We […]

Week 9 Consistency Reports - Start/Sit Decisions

It is a really tough week with six teams on a bye. Fantasy rosters will be stretched and owners will be desperately looking for options who can give them solid production. It may not be the most amazing upside in the world but when every team is hurting a solid six or seven points from […]

Check the Schedule - QB/WR Combos to Acquire Before Playoffs

We have reached that point in the season where some fantasy owners need to start thinking ahead. This will not be the case for all owners, but the lucky ones who are sitting in a comfortable position and feeling confident of the playoffs. For those owners, it is time to start positioning yourself to have […]

Week 8 Consistency Reports - Start/Sit Decisions

At every position other than tight end we are seeing fairly consistent names appearing in the top-10/15/25. Outside of that we still have a lot of boom-or-bust players. This week I want to focus on how you can use the information below to make those agonizing decisions about the high-ceiling, low-floor players. For running back […]

Nick Chubb - Welcome to the RB1 Club

Last week was tough for fantasy running backs. David Johnson and Ezekiel Elliott were both studs who disappointed. Austin Ekeler was unable to step in place of the inactive Melvin Gordon over in London and we lost both LeSean McCoy and Sony Michel to injuries early in their games. When you combine all of that with […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Football Picks (Week 8): NFL DFS Lineups

Week 8 has similar bad news in the case of us losing a few interesting teams from the slate. With both the Atlanta Falcons and Los Angeles Chargers on a bye week, we lose two of the more explosive offenses and one of the weaker defenses. We have also lost the New England Patriots to […]

Week 7 Consistency Reports - Start/Sit Decisions

Through six weeks we are now starting to see things settle down somewhat. We no longer have the massive movements in the tables that we have seen previously. This goes for all positions and the numbers are starting to match results. There will be names that surprise but when you go and look at the […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Football Picks (Week 7): NFL DFS Lineups

Entering Week 7 we have to start with bad news. The Atlanta Falcons are playing on Monday Night Football, removing one of the best teams to select DFS options against. In a way, this is perhaps a blessing as they are facing the New York Giants. Therefore, this saves us as a fantasy community from […]

Week 6 Consistency Reports - All Positions

We now have over a quarter of a seasons worth of data at our fingertips and the cream has well and truly risen to the top. There are still some interesting names high in the rankings at quarterback and tight end. However, these are generally more variable positions. That is why both positions are often […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Football Picks (Week 6): NFL DFS Lineups

Week 5 did not really offer many surprises in terms of the overall picture of teams. We learned a few little lessons, such as the Atlanta Falcons offense is just flat-out bad on the road and we never know which Buffalo Bills team is going to show up. Entering Week 6, we, unfortunately, lose two […]

Week 5 Consistency Reports - All Positions

We now have a quarter of a seasons worth of data at our fingertips and the cream has well and truly risen to the top. There are still some interesting names high in the rankings at quarterback and tight end. However, these are generally more variable positions. That is why both positions are often streamed […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Football Picks (Week 5): NFL DFS Lineups

With four weeks of the NFL season in the books, we now have a quarter of a season worth of data to look at. There are some really bad defenses standing out from the pack and there are some defenses who are best avoided. The same goes for offenses as we have some great ones […]

Week 4 Consistency Reports - All Positions

Three weeks may still seem too early to be assessing consistency but if you look at the tables below you can see that already the best fantasy options are beginning to rise to the top. We can already see just how inconsistent tight ends and to some extent running backs are compared to wide receivers […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Football Picks (Week 4): NFL DFS Lineups

Now is the time to start really cashing in on DFS games. Three weeks is enough of a sample size for us to have a feel about offenses and defenses alike. We know which teams can be attacked which way and which players are likely to be doing the attacking. There are a number of […]

Week 3 Consistency Reports - All Positions

Assessing consistency after two weeks of the season is always tough but in a 16-game season we have already seen an eighth of it. Therefore, looking at how players have started the season is still useful. It may not be a predictor of long-term fantasy consistency but it does give us an impression of who […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Football Picks (Week 3): NFL DFS Lineups

After two weeks we are getting some idea of what is maybe real and what in Week 1 was a fluke. Most importantly for DFS strategy we seem to be getting a read on how defenses are playing. We have confirmed that Kansas City's is not good and we have learnt that Pittsburgh's and New […]

Week 2 Consistency Report

Finding consistency in fantasy sports is hugely important if you want to have a shot at winning your leagues. Players with high variability week-to-week have their purpose, but if you rely too much on them you are going to find yourself frustrated some weeks. If fantasy football had roto style leagues like baseball, or you […]

Later-Round Wide Receivers Who'll Outperform Their ADP

This season, the running back position is back in vogue. The year of the Zero RB strategy has come and gone and now running backs are the toast of the town once again. Part of the reason for that is the depth of the wide receiver position relative to the running back position. Naturally, receiver […]

Rookie Rankings and Draft Analysis

Selecting which rookies to invest in can be a major headache for fantasy owners. Early on it is really tough to know what role a rookie will have early or whether his game can translate from college. At least now we can see roughly what role rookies are expected to have with their teams in […]

Defenses to Target for the 2018 Fantasy Football Season

Getting your strategy right when it comes to drafting defenses is really tough. Some people like to go early and lock up a stud defense, while others prefer to just play the matchups. However, no matter which strategy you go for there is one key element to picking your defense. Yes, matchups are important but […]
