Drake Peaugh - RotoBaller

10 articles

Hello everyone, My name is Drake. I love everything about DFS including the NBA and NFL. I have a full time job in the golf industry, but greatly enjoy reading, writing, and playing in DFS games in my spare time. When not participating in DFS, I spend time with my beautiful wife and 2-year old daughter. I am very happy to be apart of the RotoBaller team!

Gaining the Trust of a Buffalo - Bills Quarterback Josh Allen

Quoting the Montana Bison Association, “You can gain their trust and friendship, but you have not really changed their basic nature----they will always be wild.” No, I’m not calling Buffalo Bills quarterback, Josh Allen, an animal. I’m figuratively comparing his allure and NFL skills to the nature of this Bovidae. (And for those that say […]

Start of a Dynasty - Expert Mock Draft Review

I’ll be honest, playing re-draft leagues for years can give an avid fantasy footballer tunnel-vision. You tend to look for the immediate impact of a player. In Dynasty leagues, you have to have a different mindset (except for Frank Gore who’ll play for another 10 years with at least 200 touches each time). Just after […]


Live Monday Night Football Week 4 FanPicks DFS Contest

Monday night's contest between the Kansas City Chiefs and Denver Broncos just got a lot more interesting. With FanPicks.com's Live In-Game DFS Contests, you can make in-game player swaps for your DFS lineups - an awesome feature that you can't find on any other DFS site. If someone gets injured or ejected, you aren't completely […]


Live Monday Night Football FanPicks DFS Contest

We've joined forces with FanPicks to explore a new kind of DFS experience for all of our RotoBaller readers. This new live DFS game allows you to not only pick your lineup, but also become a fantasy head coach of sorts. With FanPicks' in-game contest, you have a bench to move players to your starting […]


To Draft or Not to Draft - Running Backs

Similar to the previous article on wide receivers, we will be focusing on running backs that have extremely low ADPs in most drafts. I’m looking to discuss players that are on the “Island of Misfit Toys” or players that are “Dumpster Dives.” Players that will be drafted to sit on your bench or end up […]


To Draft or Not to Draft, That is the Question - Wide Receivers

Before we get started, I want to give a special thank you to everyone who has supported me in this journey of writing: my wife, in-laws, friends, and all the great people I’ve met in the sports industry. The RotoBaller group represents some of those fine people, as they have been nothing but considerate and […]


NBA Injuries and Who Can Benefit Instead (Week 21)

Last week I was certain the basketball gods were trying to take out all of the NBA’s superstars, or there was a zombie apocalypse brewing, (I still believe the zombie apocalypse personally). Thankfully, there are not many long-term injuries to report this week. As busy as NBA injuries keep me during the season, and as […]


NBA DFS Weekend Dumpster Dive Week 20

Hey Which is better, Harden’s disrespectful, “I just did that to you” stare to Wesley Johnson as he drills a 3-ball and asks for a cleanup in aisle “13”, or Lebron’s, “I may be 33, but watch me KaioKen x10 right quick with this behind-the-back, through the legs, left-handed, parallel to the backboard, layup.... with […]


NBA Injuries and Who Can Benefit Instead (Week 20)

This season long pile-up of injuries has had me thinking, “Are we about to enter a Walking Dead-style apocalypse where this injury bug inevitably spreads and turns us all into walkers looking for flesh?!” This late in the year, even after the All-Star Break, injuries are commonplace. What isn’t as common as years past, is […]


NBA DFS Weekend Dumpster Dive for Week 16

On this edition of the Weekend NBA DFS Dumpster-Dive, we will focus on two under-the-radar games that offer a lot of fantasy upside, including scrubs and low cost players that should consider playability in your DFS lineups. For Friday, we have a tantalizing game in the Los Angeles Lakers vs. the Brooklyn Nets. And for […]
