DFS Picks and Plays for NFL Preseason Week 2 (Friday)
We had a relatively successful preseason DFS slate Thursday as DeeJay Dallas got some major PPR production right before halftime that pushed us over the edge. A second-half touchdown by Darrynton Evans was also a shot of endorphin. With a three-game slate on tap Friday, we have plenty of opportunities to boost the bank roll […]

NFL Preseason DFS Showdown Breakdown: Chicago Bears vs. Seattle Seahawks
Week 2 of the NFL preseason kicks off Thursday night with an island game between the Chicago Bears and Seattle Seahawks. Since there’s only one game on the slate, our only option to get some DFS action in is showdown. While the preseason is certainly different from the regular season, our goal for showdown […]

DFS Picks and Plays for NFL Preseason Week 1 (Sunday)
The preseason grind can be tough, as we found out the first couple of slates. But yesterday proved to be a success. Our low-owned conviction calls, such as Jaelon Darden and Jerreth Sterns, came through in a big way. We also had a masterclass performance from Bryce Perkins at less than 50% despite very clearly […]

DFS Picks and Plays for NFL Preseason Week 1 (Saturday)
The NFL preseason is in full swing, and we are sharpening our research skills with each DFS slate. Friday was a relatively successful day as we got solid performances from Jordan Love, Kennedy Brooks, Romeo Doubs and the Cleveland Browns DST (Yes, I’m counting that as a W!). We missed Demetric Felton and Stephen Anderson. […]

We have a classic preseason NFL DFS slate under our belts, and that little bit of experience is going to help us make more informed decisions Friday. Right now, it’s clear to me that the receiver position is going to be volatile, so I’m going to recommend focusing on flexing out a running back in […]

Week 1 NFL DFS Salaries on DraftKings: First Look
DraftKings Week 1 NFL DFS salaries were released Friday, which means most of us should have just taken the rest of the day off as we build lineups that won’t actually play for more than a month. But this marks the official kickoff of the 2022 NFL DFS season, and it’s a big day for […]

CFL DFS Plays for Week 8
The CFL season rolls into Week 8, and the DFS edge seems to be widening as top players’ prices have continued to rise regardless of performance. This stiff pricing rewards bargain shoppers like us who are capable of identifying unknown breakout candidates. We find these via hard-to-find practice reports or injury news. This week offers […]

The CFL season rolls on, and we are already at Week 5. Our guys with the BC Lions did some serious damage once again as Nathan Rourke, James Butler and Keon Hatcher all went nuclear last week. Unfortunately, the injury bug hit us again with Duke Williams missing most of the second half of the […]

The USFL has successfully made it through a full regular season and will be crowning an inaugural champion shortly.

CFL DFS Plays for Week 3
Week 2 of CFL DFS was profitable thanks to a low-rostered Tim White melting the slate with 33 fantasy points. We also got solid production from other highlighted plays such as Jamal Morrow and Shaq Evans. This brings up an excellent talking point when it comes to strategy. White had an awful Week 1, and […]

CFL DFS Plays for Week 2
The first week of CFL DFS was relatively successful as the BC Lions stack helped us cash most of our H2Hs and double-ups. Tournaments were hit or miss, but overall I feel good about how things went.

There are just three weeks left in the USFL regular season, and playoff spots are being gobbled up quickly.
