Despite his relative inexperience, rookie Riley Herbst ran unexpectedly well in last weekend's Daytona 500 as he was battling for fourth until he spun out as he took the white flag. His spinout did enable him to miss the race-deciding wreck later that lap, but nonetheless relegated him to a 17th-place finish. However, the Toyotas seem a lot slower at Atlanta than they did at Daytona and none of them qualified very well. His speed in the Daytona 500 and 23XI Racing's speed throughout speedweeks suggests he might have some value for DFS purposes, but Toyota's seeming lack of speed at Atlanta, combined with the fact that plenty of the experienced Toyota veterans qualified just as poorly or worse, suggest that it would be a much better idea to roster any of the Joe Gibbs Racing drivers for DFS teams than Herbst.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller
