Dave Ventresca is a fantasy football, NFL Betting, and NASCAR DFS contributor for RotoBaller. He has been creating fantasy football content for the last three years and has been nominated for several FSWA awards.

He promptly recruited all his buddies to join his first fantasy football league at the age of 12 and has been hooked ever since. As a result, Dave is now an NFL handicapper and avid fantasy football player. He plays in over 60 fantasy football leagues, many of which are high stakes, so you can be sure that he is willing to put his money where his mouth is when it comes to fantasy football advice.

Kenneth Walker III - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Why Kenneth Walker III is a League-Winning RB in Fantasy Football (2025)

Any experienced fantasy football manager knows the importance of rostering elite running backs. The position carries legendary upside, and if you draft the correct back, he can single-handedly carry your team to a title. While running the football had fallen out of favor in recent years, running backs made a big comeback in 2024. We […]

6 Overvalued Fantasy Football Picks to Avoid - Dave's All-Bust Team (2025)

Every year, dedicated fantasy football managers spend hours trying to figure out which players they should select in their annual fantasy football draft. What’s equally important, but sometimes overlooked, is identifying which players you should actively avoid. Busts are not fun to discuss. It’s much more enjoyable to talk about the players you think will […]


NASCAR DFS Picks (Craftsman Truck Series): DraftKings Lineup Plays for the Eero 250 at Richmond (2025)

Corey Heim's dominant 2025 season continued last week at Watkins Glen. Heim led 44 of 81 laps and scored his sixth victory of the season. Heim has comfortably won the regular season title, and it's going to be hard for anyone to beat him once the Truck Series Playoffs begin. Speaking of the playoffs, the […]

Who Should I Draft? Aaron Jones, Jordan Mason Fantasy Football Outlooks

The Minnesota Vikings offense could look much different this year with second-year quarterback J.J. McCarthy set to take over as the team's QB1. With a first-year starting quarterback, we can probably expect Minnesota to rely heavily on its running game to help out its young signal-caller. Last year's RB1, Aaron Jones, re-signed with the team […]

We’re back with another round of Xfinity Series action this weekend. Sam Mayer captured the checkered flag last week at Iowa.

NASCAR DFS Picks (Craftsman Truck Series): DraftKings Lineup Plays for the Mission 176 at The Glen (2025)

The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series is back following an off weekend. Layne Riggs won the most recent Truck Series race two weeks ago at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park.

NASCAR DFS Picks (Xfinity Series): DraftKings Lineup Plays for the HyVee Perks 250 at Iowa (2025)

Last Saturday was a wild day for the NASCAR Xfinity Series at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. We were trending well with our DFS picks last week, but unfortunately, things took an ugly turn in the final 15 laps. Kyle Larson got into Justin Allgaier when the former got loose trying to make a pass. Things really […]

16 Fantasy Football Bold Predictions (NFC Edition) - Malik Nabers, Bijan Robinson, J.J. McCarthy, Mike Evans, A.J. Brown, Kyren Williams, Miles Sanders

Fortune favors the bold. Or so the old saying goes. That is often the case when it comes to playing fantasy football. While it’s fun to get excited and draft the players you’re most confident in, it remains true that you don’t win your league on draft day. However, it’s also true that you don’t […]

The NASCAR Xfinity Series returns to the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway this weekend. The series made its debut at the track back in 2012. It ran on the oval through 2019 before taking a four-year break to run the track's Grand Prix circuit. The oval made its return to the series last year, though, and […]

The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series returns this Friday night after nearly a month break in the action. Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park (IRP) is next on the schedule.

5 Fantasy Football Late-Round WR1 Candidates: Wide Receiver Value Picks and Sleepers for 2025

Regardless of the size or skill level of your fantasy football league, there are core strategy elements that always remain the same. Finding quality wide receivers is one of them.

Fantasy football drafts will soon be underway as we are now just a few weeks away from the start of NFL training camps.

Should I Draft TreVeyon Henderson, RJ Harvey, or Quinshon Judkins? Fantasy Football Dynasty Rookie Draft Analysis

The incoming rookie running back class was seen as one of the strengths of the 2025 NFL Draft. We saw two backs drafted in the first round, three drafted in the second round, and one more drafted in the third round. We also had two more running backs selected in the first few picks of […]

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings made headlines recently.

5 Quarterback ADP Value Picks and Sleepers for Fantasy Football (2025)

Quarterback is arguably the most important position in all of professional sports. If a team can find a stud quarterback, it makes their life much easier.

The 2025 fantasy football season is fast approaching. Experienced managers know that there is a significant amount of work ahead to adequately prepare their drafts.

Fantasy Football Running Back ADP Busts: 5 Expensive Running Backs to Fade in 2025

While every manager loves discussing which players to target in their fantasy football draft, they must also take some time and have a much less fun conversation.

The Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers have dominated the NFC West in recent seasons. In fact, both teams have won seven of the last eight division titles.

The start of the 2025 NFL season is quickly approaching. Dynasty fantasy football players are hard at work preparing for the upcoming season, and many are smack in the middle of their league’s rookie draft.

5 Dynasty Wide Receivers to Buy or Sell: Fantasy Football WR Risers and Fallers (2025)

In recent years, we have seen more rookie wide receivers provide immediate high-end production than ever before.

Fantasy Football Rookie Sleepers: 5 Late-Round Draft Picks to Target and Stash (2025)

While the player pool is vastly different, dynasty rookie drafts are no different than any other fantasy football draft.
