Between the numbers for Week 1
NFL DFS is always a game of ownership and theory. We don’t need to fade every player who is chalk, or popular in DraftKings and FanDuel DFS contests, but we do need to determine who is going to be popular in order to decide whether we like the roster percentage a particular player is getting, […]

How to win at NFL DFS on SuperDraft

Each players’ points within your lineup are multiplied to produce your final score. As there is no salary cap, you simply select a team of eight players – 1 […]
