It is back in all its glory this year: My 10 favorite DFS plays under 10% projected ownership. Low-owned players — especially low-owned stacks — are how you can fly up leaderboards Sunday and take home those top prizes.

TwoGun’s core NFL DFS picks for Week 2

Week 2 GPP Stacks & Correlated Leverage Opportunities
GPPs are a game of probability. We can think of the chance of our lineup “hitting” as the chance of all of our individual plays hitting. This is why we stack – by adding correlation, we increase the probability of a group of players hitting at the same time. A great analogy is to think […]
