MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Kansas City

Say what you will about Ian Garry and Carlos Prates, but wow, do they have gumption and know how to save a show. For a division like welterweight, which has seen a lot of shuffling amongst its rankings, this fight is pivotal for contendership. Sean Brady, Shavkat Rakhmonov, Jack Della Maddalena, Joaquin Buckley, and Michael […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC 314

Now this is a stacked event, with a handful of fan favorites and a solid contribution by Bellator. The stories with this card just keep developing. Somehow, Bryce Mitchell vs. Jean Silva adds a wrinkle by the minute, and Yair Rodriguez and Diego Lopes might just decide to forego their currently scheduled bouts and fight […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Vegas 105

This card is an absolute minefield of uncertainty, but this main event should be fun. I came up with a couple of lineups where I used either Josh Emmett or Lerone Murphy, but now that Kennedy Nzechukwu is out of his fight with Martin Buday, it becomes a real head-scratcher as to who you should […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Mexico City

You know I love the flyweights, and I don't see how this main event wouldn't deliver. My attention is being taken in all directions this week with Kentucky in the Sweet 16, heartbreak on Reds Opening Day, and the start of the UFL season, but another UFC Fight Night event at an actual location is […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC London

The English and U.K. presence is strong this week in the UFC's 16th trip to London. This is the first of two straight UFC Fight Night events that will be held at locations outside of the Apex with a crowd, which many are very excited to see, considering how the crowds in London and Mexico […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Vegas 104

There's nothing like a weird rematch to headline a UFC Vegas card the week after a big-time PPV. Though there has been a lot of talk about the quality of this card: 1) it always seems to be those cards that generate some of the best entertainment, 2) I will always prefer fights to no […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC 313

Now, here is one we've all been waiting for. It will be very difficult for this PPV event to not deliver. The opportunity to finally deliver for Magomed Ankalaev and the opportunity to exponentially grow his legacy and silence all talks of ducking for Alex Pereira. Even though it isn't the original Justin Gaethje matchup […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Vegas 103

Typically, I am not one for belly-aching over the weekend's slate, but this has to be the most generous application of the term "co-main event" in recent memory. Even still -- take note of the featured image for the article this week. If you had told me that I'd be advocating for Cody Brundage and against […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Seattle

When it rains, it pours -- and this week, it has been pouring fight cancellations and last-second opportunities for UFC Seattle. With a UFC event in Seattle, I have to work in as many Seattle puns and references as possible. There have been seven cancellations/rearrangements to be exact. So, the likes of Nick Klein, Julius […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Vegas 102

They could've gone old school with this card and named it "UFC Vegas 102: The Crossroads." We have elder statesmen taking on up-and-comers, debuts being made against seasoned veterans, and certainly several last-chance matchups. As far as young talent and fun, familiar names go -- the UFC could be offering something worse for a card […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC 312

The MMA fans of the great land of Australia are getting treated to ... a questionable slate of fights for a big pay-per-view event. They could've had a ton of big names on this card in front of the Aussie faithful, but it is going to be a lot of up-and-comers of varying magnitude to […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Saudi Arabia

Back from another one-week UFC break with a banging card taking place for most of us bright and early on Saturday morning from Saudi Arabia -- this is a card where you will be trying your best to squeeze in as many fighters as possible in the $8.6K-$9.2K range, so I had to bend my […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC 311

The first PPV of 2025 is an absolute banger -- with even several non-title fights causing me to lose sleep from anticipation this week. Inglewood will be playing host to two extremely competitive championship matchups and a handful of others that have a high-leverage impact on title shots and the UFC rankings. Some of my […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Vegas 101

Welcome to UFC 2025, as we are kicking the year off with one of the most UFC Apexish cards ever. It is a very curious way to start the year for the UFC, as there is not much high-level or ranked action to speak of. That distinction is solely reserved for the main event on […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Tampa

Here we are -- the final UFC event of 2024, and it is a pickle wrapped in a riddle. This has been a year dominated by a handful of key storylines, controversial takes, a few heroic champions, and some wild judging that has cost me (and let's be honest --benefited me) on many occasions. Thankfully, […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC 310

So many fun fights, so many expensive hitters, and so many tempting underdogs. To name a few dogs that I put serious consideration into but didn't make the cut: Ian Machado Garry, Alexander Volkov, Vicente Luque, Cody Durden, and Chris Weidman. Not that I didn't use these guys in some lineups and that I don't […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Macau

A card stocked full of Road to UFC talent is always tough to call, and I ended up mostly avoiding a lot of those fighters who are priced right in the middle on DraftKings. I'm not going to lie -- UFC 309 was kind of a letdown, which speaks more to the absurdity of the […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC 309

Wow. With so many fighters pushing 40 years old on this card and the amount of (justified) heavy underdogs, this is not an easy week for values, so I am throwing a handful at the wall to see what sticks. So much has been said in the lead-up to this event about the headlining fight […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Vegas 100

The interesting nature of this UFC Vegas 100 card has me digging deeper than usual this week. I will not lie to you folks: I do not have the same level of confidence in this slew of value selections that I usually do, but I like pretty much everyone priced at $9.1K and above this […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Edmonton

The UFC is back in Canada -- so put some gravy on your fries and syrup on your pancakes -- because the Canadian fighters have a whole lot of making up to do. Thankfully, after a lot of UFC events in 2024, we're looking at boxing cards with heavy favorites, as this is a card […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC 308

UFC 308 in Abu Dhabi will be kicking off at 10AM EST, so this is an omelette and black coffee kind of card that you'll want to set an alarm for if you're part of a younger crowd with plans on Friday. With 13 fights on the card, there are also five fighters priced at […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Vegas 99

We've got 11 fights on tap for UFC Vegas 99 on the same day that PFL Super Fights is going down, and the theme of this week is that picking these fights seemed eerily straightforward. So, straightforward we shall keep it. What could go wrong? Well, as Robert Burns wrote in 1785: “[t]he best laid […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Vegas 98

Well, UFC 307 was a roller coaster of peculiar design, and I do not recall an event with more questionable decisions and individual scorecards. I am willing to chalk that up in part to the event being in Salt Lake City and put it in the rearview mirror as we look forward to another UFC […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC 307

This is the most difficult week of making value picks that I have experienced thus far. I am going to try to keep things short(er) and sweet this week because trying to find your values near the bottom half of this slate is navigating an absolute minefield. It is another card of heavy favorites, but […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Paris

With 14 fights currently slated for UFC Paris, I will be the first to admit that I am all over the place this week across DFS platforms. Espérons que la France fasse mieux devant son public que le Canada et le Mexique samedi. That is French for, "Let's hope that France does better in front […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Noche

A very grand production for UFC Noche (UFC 306) made it necessary to keep this card limited to ten fights, and even though I could easily see thousands of different combinations for DFS lineups across all platforms, my variations ended up remarkably similar. Out of the twenty fighters on this card, there are really only […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Vegas 97

Let's be real honest from the start: this week, it feels pretty much essential to budget accordingly to be able to afford Isaac Dulgarian at the top of the chart. Everyone from Steve Garcia ($8.6K) to Dulgarian at $9.9K is a viable option, but of all things, I think it is easier to incorporate the […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Vegas 96

Coming off a very exciting event in UFC 305, we are back to Apex action with another UFC Vegas event that is drawing criticism for its overall quality. The co-main event lacks star power and there are several extremely lopsided favorites. But despite all this, I think the main event is a super intriguing test […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC 305

While fan morale might be low after an unspectacular UFC Vegas event, we have a fantastic PPV card ahead of us on Saturday with UFC 305. Along with plenty of tough-to-call matchups and super heavy favorites, the most difficult parts for me this week were evaluating home-field advantage for the Australian and New Zealand fighters […]
