NFL Draftkings Week 16

Here is what I’m looking at this week. Here is what I’m rolling with this week. There is enough value out there you can pay up to Mahomes at QB this week, but I’m going with Hurts and that rushing upside against the Dallas D. And then we have a bunch of guys I keep playing in the wrong weeks–David Johnson, Tim Patrick, DJ Moore. They have all had good weeks, seemingly anytime I don’t play them. So my solution apparently is just to always play. Godert is my hurts stack as that salary has come down on him. And … Continue reading NFL Draftkings Week 16

NFL Draftkings Week 15

Here is what I’m looking at this week. Single lineup this week as I plow through my to-do list and play catch up on some house/personal stuff this morning. Doing something this week you absolutely should not do: playing a bunch of high ownership guys in smaller GPP tournaments. Hilton, Mahomes, Kamara, Hockenson and Aiyuk all project to be 10-20 percent owned this week. In fact, the only low-owned guy in this lineup is probably Gallup. And yes, I paid up for the Rams, who should be the most popular defense to own as they face the Jets. Make no … Continue reading NFL Draftkings Week 15

College Football Power Ratings, Championship Week

At the start of this football season, I made the decision to not do power ratings this year. I simply did not want to invest the time in ratings teams in a season with so much capacity for chaos during a pandemic. Players out, games cancelled, etc. It just seemed like a futile exercise this year, just like resistance to the Borg. But, with championship week upon us and the playoff, I decided to do my power ratings for the 25 teams in the College Football Playoff rankings. This is not a ranking of who should be in or out, … Continue reading College Football Power Ratings, Championship Week

NFL Draftkings Week 14

Here is what I’m looking at this week. Cash on the left, Early slate only on the right. Players in both: Tim Patrick, Jordan Akins. Both are basically last men standing in depleated offenses. Switched it up a bit this week as I have an Early games only lineup, along with my cash play. Early slate was for a Mission complete on Draftkings. Wilson has been cold for a few weeks. Well, enter the Jets. I actually think they might cover the 14-point spread, and Wilson won’t be able to put it in the tank after halftime. Yeah, I know … Continue reading NFL Draftkings Week 14

NFL Draftkings Week 13

Here is what I’m looking at this week. Cash on the left, GPP on the right. Players in both: Dalvin Cook, Austin Ekeler, Robert Woods. I also have a different cheap Bears receiver in both. Cook is beat up, but the Vikings have the highest projected team score of the week and are 10 point favorites. Firsker is the cheap punt play of the week, at just $2,500 with Jonnu Smith out for the Titans. Only takes a couple catches for him to hit value. In GPP, it generally doesn’t make sense to play a Defense facing your quarterback and … Continue reading NFL Draftkings Week 13
