Hollywood Casino 400 DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy NASCAR Lineup Picks

The NASCAR Cup Series heads to Kansas on Sunday for the second race of the playoffs. Last week, non-playoff driver Erik Jones won the opening race of this round, which means that all 12 spots in the next round are still up for grabs. Kurt Busch, who isn't racing today as he recovers from a […]

Formula 1 Italian Grand Prix DFS: DraftKings Daily Fantasy F1 Lineup Picks

Formula 1 heads to Autodromo Nazionale Monza on Saturday for the Italian Grand Prix. Last week, Max Verstappen won for the fourth race in a row. Will that change this week? Maybe! Grid penalties have this field in an interesting shape, as Charles Leclerc is on pole and Verstappen starts seventh due to a grid […]

NASCAR Xfinity Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Kansas Lottery 300 (9/10/22)

The NASCAR Xfinity Series heads to Kansas on Saturday as the playoffs inch closer and closer. Just two more races remain before the Round of 12 begins. Can we get a new winner on Saturday to shake up the postseason picture? Last week, Noah Gragson won at Darlington, his fourth win this season. He currently […]

Harrison Butker Week 1 Outlook For Fantasy Fooball

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker is one of the top fantasy kickers heading into Week 1 against the Cardinals. Last season, Butker went 25-for-28 on field goal attempts and 47-for-49 on extra points. You usually want your fantasy kicker to play on a high-powered offense so you can maximize trips onto the other team's […]

Chiefs Defense Week 1 Outlook For Fantasy Football

The Kansas City Chiefs defense has some talent throughout the lineup, but a Week 1 matchup against a high-powered Cardinals team makes it tough to trust this team when it comes to fantasy. There will be times this season when you want to stream this defense, but most of those times are later in the […]

Travis Kelce Week 1 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce faces a tough matchup this week against an Arizona Cardinals defense that allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game to tight ends last season. Kelce's talent and target share still makes him a top five tight end this week in season-long fantasy leagues though, so don't overthink the […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling - Week 1 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling is an intriguing fantasy option for Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals. With Tyreek Hill gone, the Chiefs need a deep weapon, and Valdes-Scantling could be that weapon, as he was often used in that way with the Packers. Consider MVS to be a flex option this week […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster - Week 1 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster should be viewed as the team's top wideout heading into Week 1. The former Steeler is entering his sixth season in the NFL and has been a strong player when on the field, though last year he appeared in just five games. The Cardinals have some solid pieces […]

Isiah Pacheco Is Too Big Of A Risk In Week 1

Kansas City Chiefs rookie running back Isiah Pacheco saw a lot of usage in the preseason, including ending things with a 10-carry, 52-yard effort against the Packers. His production led to a lot of preseason hype, but fantasy managers should temper expectations until we see how the workload shakes out in Week 1 against Arizona. […]

Clyde Edwards-Helaire Is RB3 Play In Week 1

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire looks poised to start for the Chiefs this year, but until we get a sense of what his workload looks like, he should be considered a fantasy RB3. The former first-round pick played 10 games last year, finishing with 646 scrimmage yards and six touchdowns. He could wind […]

Patrick Mahomes Is Strong Week 1 Option

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes might not have Tyreek Hill to catch passes anymore, but he's still a top-end fantasy quarterback because of his accuracy, arm strength and his ability to stretch out plays.It's possible that his stock takes a small hit this season, but he'll still be one of the best quarterbacks in […]

Texans Defense Not On Fantasy Radar

The Houston Texans defense ranked 22nd in both passing and rushing DVOA last season and faces a tough task in Week 1 this season against the Colts. The last time these teams met, the Colts won 31-0, with Taylor rushing for 143 yards and two touchdowns. With an improved passing game this year led by […]

Ka'imi Fairbairn Has Little Upside In Week 1

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn is unlikely to have much fantasy impact in 2022, mainly because the Houston offense doesn't project to move the ball well enough for Fairbairn to get opportunities. Last season, Fairbairn attempted just 19 field goals and 16 extra points. He made a career-low 78.9% of his field goal attempts and […]

Brevin Jordan Not On Week 1 Fantasy Radar

Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan has a lot of athletic upside, but that doesn't mean fantasy managers should be looking at him as an option this week. While he's the biggest name when it comes to Texans tight ends, Pharaoh Brown and O.J. Howard are on the team as well, and we won't really […]

Nico Collins A Risky Week 1 Play

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins was a popular sleeper this offseason and showed some nice rapport in the preseason with quarterback Davis Mills. However, this doesn't mean that fantasy managers should fire him up for Sunday's Week 1 contest against the Indianapolis Colts. Collins could very well end up being a valuable fantasy play […]

Brandin Cooks Opens 2022 As Texans Best Fantasy Play

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks is arguably the only Texans player who fantasy managers can trust heading into the 2022 season. The Colts have a much better run defense than pass defense, so expect Houston to go to the air often, with Cooks expected to be the beneficiary of that. Last season, he was […]

Rex Burkhead A Risky Week 1 Play

Houston Texans running back Rex Burkhead could see a lot of work in the passing game this season, but there's too much uncertainty around the veteran running back for him to be in fantasy lineups in Week 1. The Colts were a strong run defense last year, which could theoretically boost Burkhead over teammate Dameon […]

Dameon Pierce Starts Career With Tough Matchup

Houston Texans rookie running back Dameon Pierce was a popular sleeper in the preseason, but fantasy managers might want to consider leaving him on the bench in Week 1 against the Colts. Indianapolis ranked third in DVOA against the run last season and the Texans will likely be playing from behind in this one, limiting […]

Davis Mills Faces Tough Start To Season

Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills is set to face the Indianapolis Colts in Week 1 of the 2022 NFL season. The Colts were 17th in DVOA against the pass last year, so the matchup here isn't terrible for Mills, but in the early going, it's tough to justify playing Mills unless he has an even […]

The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series is back for the first time in almost a month as we head to Kansas Speedway on Friday night for the Kansas Lottery 200. This is the final race of the Round of 10, with two drivers set to be eliminated from the playoffs following this one. Grant Enfinger […]

Below, you'll find some wide receivers that you should be targeting on the fantasy football waiver wire ahead of Week 1. […]

Where Should Isiah Pacheco be Drafted for Fantasy Football? Is He the RB Backup to CEH?

The Kansas City Chiefs have some question marks in the backfield. The signing of Ronald Jones II doesn't seem like it's going to work out and that leaves a lot of pressure on Clyde Edwards-Helaire. One name that's emerged from the muck is Isiah Pacheco, a seventh-round pick out of Rutgers. Is Pacheco going to […]

Cook Out Southern 500 DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy NASCAR Lineup Picks

It's playoff time in the NASCAR Cup Series. 16 drivers are still alive in the race for the title. Last week's exciting ending at Daytona saw Austin Dillon earn the final playoff spot, knocking Martin Truex Jr. out in the process. This is the second visit to Darlington this season. In May, Joey Logano led […]

Formula 1 Dutch Grand Prix DFS: DraftKings Daily Fantasy F1 Lineup Picks

Formula 1 heads to Circuit Zandvoort on Sunday for the Dutch Grand Prix. Max Verstappen started the weekend slow, but he earned the pole in a thrilling qualifying session and will start beside Charles Leclerc on the front row. Last week, Verstappen won...again. Last year's champion has now won three races in a row and […]

NASCAR Xfinity Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Sport Clips Haircuts VFW Help A Hero 200 at Darlington (9/3/22)

The NASCAR Xfinity Series heads to Darlington on Saturday as the race for a playoff spot heats up. Last week, a long night at Daytona culminated in a Jeremy Clements win, but he was assessed a penalty after the race that canceled the automatic playoff bid that usually comes with a victory. Now, drivers have […]

What is the Fantasy Football Impact of O.J. Howard to Texans?

Tight end O.J. Howard was released by the Bills following the preseason, but it didn't take the former Alabama star long to find a new home. Howard is reportedly signing with the Houston Texans, where he'll join a tight end room that's rife for the taking if Howard can show that his injuries haven't slowed […]

Rookie WRs Set to Make An Impact in 2022 Fantasy Football Leagues

Rookie wide receivers tend to be really hit or miss in fantasy football. Last year was definitely a "hit" year, as Ja'Marr Chase and Jaylen Waddle had explosive seasons. This season...well, I think we should temper our expectations just a little bit about this class of rookie wideouts. There's plenty of talent, but Chase and […]

Fantasy Impact: The Donovan Mitchell Trade

After the Utah Jazz traded Rudy Gobert, it was only a matter of time before the team ended up trading Donovan Mitchell as well. There was no way the Jazz could justify holding Mitchell, because the team would have been a fringe playoff team with no viable path to improving. So, they traded Mitchell on […]

What is the Fantasy Football Impact of the Laviska Shenault Trade?

On Monday, the Jacksonville Jaguars traded wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. to the Carolina Panthers. Shenault is entering his third season in the NFL and now will have to learn a new offense on the fly if he wants to make an impact in his new digs. Let's examine how this trade impacts Shenault, as […]

How Long is Sam Darnold Out? Is He Still Relevant in Fantasy Football?

At one point this offseason, it looked like Sam Darnold could be in line to start at quarterback for the Panthers, but then the team traded for Baker Mayfield. And while the team initially didn't decide on a starting QB after the trade, it seemed clear that Mayfield would eventually earn that role. Darnold was […]
