Carson Hocevar's Poor Qualifying and Second at Atlanta Make Him a Viable DFS Option
Although Carson Hocevar only qualified 28th at Talladega yesterday and was genuinely rather slow in most of last year's drafting track races, he earned his best career finish (a second) in the previous drafting race at Atlanta despite starting 26th, which means he seems to be driving less conservatively now and is more willing to fight for the lead. Coming off of last week's race at Bristol (which was one of Hocevar's fastest races ever), he clearly has positive momentum entering this race. Considering he has the potential to gain many positions, is available relatively cheaply at $6,900, and has a relatively weak surface record on this track type, he's a very strong pick for DFS if you think he is more likely to replicate this year's Atlanta run than last year's lackluster runs.
