Todd Gilliland a Sleeper to Watch at Talladega
Races at Talladega Superspeedway are a great equalizer. They give almost every driver in the field a chance to win, as the draft gives teams a "right place, right time" opportunity on race day. So when it comes to DFS, we get to look at deep sleepers when the Cup Series visits Talladega. Enter Todd Gilliland. over the last four Talladega races, Gilliland has the third-best average driver rating (88.4), and he's coming off of a career-best second-place finish here last fall. Additionally, over the last seven 'Dega races, Gilliland has finished 12th or better five times. He starts 19th for this weekend's Jack Link's 500, so the No. 34 Ford should be very low-owned in DFS tournaments, but if can pull off another top-five finish (or dare we say a win), Gilliland could be an excellent leverage option in daily contests on Sunday.
