Don't Let Go: Players to Hold in Dynasty

Dynasty leagues require a lot of patience. After all, building a consistent, winning team takes time. It takes a keen eye for talent. It takes luck. And it takes the ability to recognize that sometimes you have to use a roster spot on someone who won't give you much in the short term, but who […]

One Year Away: Players to Stash in Dynasty for Next Season

The 2020 NFL season is going to be a weird one because of COVID-19. With fewer offseason activities and fewer preseason games, teams will rely on veteran talent more than usual, pushing young players down the depth charts. One thing that means for dynasty managers is that if you're in win-now mode, you have less […]

NASCAR Xfinity Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Kentucky Shady Rays 200 (7/9/20)

Hi, everyone! On Thursday, the NASCAR Xfinity Series will get a little more normal.

Touchdown Regression Candidates: Quarterback

The league average touchdown percentage for NFL quarterbacks was 4.5 percent last year. Every year since 2009, the number's been somewhere between 4.2 and 4.6 aside from a one-year jump to 4.8 in 2018. That's not to say some individual quarterbacks don't exceed that number every year. Plenty do. 12 NFL quarterbacks had a touchdown […]

NASCAR Xfinity Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Pennzoil 150 At The Brickyard (7/4/20)

Fooled Me Once... Sophomore Tight Ends Set to Bust Again

As part of our "Fooled Me Once, Not Again" series, RotoBaller is looking at second-year players who struggled as rookies and aren't likely to pull themselves out of those struggles in 2020.

We're back for the second day of the Pocono doubleheader! Yesterday, we saw Kevin Harvick finally cross the Tricky Triangle off his list of tracks where he hasn't won a Cup Series race. Today thanks to the grid invert for the top 20 spots, he starts 20th. This is going to be an especially fun […]

NASCAR Xfinity Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Pocono Green 225 (6/28/20)

The Truck Series is back after a week off and will be part of a busy weekend at Pocono Raceway, including a pair of Cup Series races.

NASCAR Research Station: DraftKings, FanDuel DFS Lineup Picks - Pocono Organics 325

The NASCAR Cup Series is doing something it's never done before this weekend: running a doubleheader. The idea was planned before COVID-19 and was a way of saving Pocono from dropping down to just one race. Xfinity ran a Homestead doubleheader with a lot of success, which suggests that this weekend should work and should […]

NASCAR DFS Strategy: DraftKings Sleepers and Overvalued Drivers - Geico 500 (New Start)

A rain delay on Sunday means that the Geico 500 at Talladega Superspeedway has been pushed back to Monday.

And because we have data on what drivers were at what ownership percentage from Sunday's lineups, we […]

It's Talladega time, y'all! The longest track on the NASCAR circuit at 2.66 miles, Talladega Superspeedway is one of the two restrictor plate tracks that NASCAR visits. If you aren't super familiar with NASCAR, what that means is a lot of large packs of cars running together and an expanded field of "good" cars, as […]

NASCAR Research Station: DraftKings, FanDuel DFS Lineup Picks - Dixie Vodka 400

A full weekend of NASCAR action at Homestead-Miami Speedway is topped off on Sunday with the Cup Series Dixie Vodka 400.

NASCAR Xfinity Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Homestead Contender Boats 250 (6/14/20)

On Saturday, the NASCAR Xfinity Series raced at Homestead-Miami Speedway. On Sunday, they'll do it again.

Will we get an extremely exciting ending like […]

Austin Dillon Exits Race After Overheating

Early on in Wednesday's Blue Emu Maximum Pain Relief 500, the crush panel on Austin Dillon's No. 3 car was damaged. That caused his car to overheat inside, which ultimately forced Dillon to exit the race. Dillon's overheating issue required a visit to the infield care center and oxygen for the 30-year-old driver. Dillon should […]

Ryan Blaney Finishes Second At Martinsville

Penske Racing's Ryan Blaney started on the pole for Wednesday's Blue Emu Maximum Pain Relief 500 at Martinsville Speedway.

Martin Truex Jr. Wins At Martinsville

On Wednesday, Christopher Bell will make his first Cup Series start at Martinsville Speedway, but the rookie is no stranger to the track, having run four Truck Series races there. In those four races, Bell recorded three top-10 finishes, leading a combined 112 laps in his final two starts at the track. While his 2020 […]

Martin Truex Jr. Looks To Repeat At Martinsville

The former Cup Series champion is starting fifth in the Blue Emu 500 and is still searching for […]

Brad Keselowski Should Have Strong Run At Martinsville

Penske Racing's Brad Keselowski has won two of the past six races at Martinsville Speedway and should be considered one of the favorites heading into Wednesday's Blue Emu 500. Keselowski starts sixth in this one, which limits his place-differential upside, but with eight consecutive top-10s at this track, DFS players shouldn't be too worried about […]

A.J. Allmendinger On Standby For Austin Dillon

Richard Childress Racing's Austin Dillon is set to start 22nd on Wednesday night in the Blue Emu 500 at Martinsville Speedway, but there's a chance that Dillon won't be piloting the No. 3 car in this one.
