10 Under 10%: The Best Overlooked DFS Plays of Week 8
The path to winning DFS GPP tournaments is typically aided by diamonds in the rough. These are the players often overlooked and considered to be contrarian, looming under 10% rostered. Building chalky lineups filled with popular plays over 20% can work in cash games where we’re looking to finish in the 51st percentile of a […]

Week 7 NFL DFS Cash Cores
It’s a bit of an odd week on DraftKings because the top four players in popularity are all running backs, which naturally means someone would have to be left off your roster. Things are more spread out on FanDuel, but there are still plenty of players who are popular on both sites, so let’s dig […]

TwoGun’s Core NFL DFS Picks for Week 7
The “chalkacalypse” continued last week with Raheem Mostert completely breaking the NFL DFS slate, but scoring was more or less normal outside of that. So perhaps there’s hope out there for a little contrarian troll like me, who is dependent on normal/lowish scoring but still needs the chalk to not be the truth.    Every […]
