Mike FF Today 609 Posted September 23, 2015 Just posted Andy Swanson's column on how to ready the Vegas betting lines to help in your DFS games. I like his feeling on Blount this week. We'll have Holka's weekly DFS column posted on Friday. I've been dealing with some issues with our stats provider so I haven't had time to play as much volume as I would've liked but the first two weeks have been decent for me on both FanDuel and DraftKings . Hopefully I can get my lineup(s) built at a decent time this week and I'll post one here... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike FF Today 609 Posted September 25, 2015 Ready to take the plunge with Blount? Here's a cash game lineup for DraftKings... QB Carson PalmerRB L. BlountRB Marshawn LynchWR Antonio BrownWR John BrownWR Julian EdelmanTE Coby FleenerFLEX T. WilliamsDST Seahawks Still debating whether or not to use Blount... which means I'll likely remove him. There's no need to play the RB guessing game in New England. I do like the others in this roster though. Fleener is in only if Dwayne Allen is ruled out.

giraldi02 470 Posted September 25, 2015 Travis Benjamin. The Raiders have given up the most big passing plays in the NFL this season. McCown is better than most people think throwing the deep ball Benjamin now becomes a contrarian pick because a lot of people will fade him without JFF. There's no guarantee that if McCown struggles, that JFF doesn't play anyways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike FF Today 609 Posted September 25, 2015 Just posted Holka's Daily Guidance column for Week 3. We're both on Lynch and John Brown. I'm sure Lynch will be highly owned but he's in such a good spot, it's hard to leave him out of a cash game lineup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do like the others in this roster though. Fleener is in only if Dwayne Allen is ruled out. Allen is already announced as "out". It's bad enough playing NE RB guessing game in FF, why do it in DFS? Seahawks are screaming to be the top D this week, which means a lot of people will have them. Personally, I am going with a different D, but haven't decided yet. Liking Panthers though with Brees out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Personally, I am going with a different D, but haven't decided yet. Liking Panthers though with Brees out. I came to the forum to look for DEF plays in DFS games this week. I'm torn between CAR and SEA. My current roster has enough funds left over for SEA price tag of $5300, even though I've currently got CAR at $4600 in place. hmmmm, what to do, what to do?

Flgatorguy87 160 Posted September 25, 2015 Better ease up on Lynch. Fjax should see increased touches even if Lynch plays. That game should be 1 sided from the jump. Other guys I like this week for value purposes allowing for increase spending in other areas.... Palmer Dalton Chris Polk Blount Sproles Starks Randle Freeman Moncrief J. Cook I tend to search for bargain RBS more so than WRs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Seattle is a safe play for the 50/50 or double up leagues, but if your swinging for the fences you should try something outside the box. Oakland or something of that type. Just my thoughts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just my thoughts That is true. For me - I usually don't play in the large tournaments. I find myself in the 5 and 10 team leagues as well as the Double up / Quintuple up type of fields. BTW: I already have two of the "value" players you mentioned in your post in my DFS lineup this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was only on the field for 9 offensive plays last week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted September 26, 2015 As Flgatorguy87 noted, Lynch isn't a lock this week especially given his price tag of $8,700 in Fanduel. If you're playing in tourneys, I would save those QB/RB dollars towards WR1 with huge ceilings. Also, there are two home defenses against horrible teams; Carolina & Jets. Both very affordable. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bishop82 61 Posted September 26, 2015 Is anyone playing LeVeon Bell this week in DFS? With Lynch listed as questionable and most likely sitting in the 2nd half with a big lead, is Bell a good option this week or are you taking a wait and see approach?

Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted September 26, 2015 I'm sending him straight out. I like his price. He's one of the few EBs I've paid full price for. Im not sure about his matchup. Obviously Jones ran all over the Rams last week, but that was an odd game. I think the Rams D bounces back and looks to limit Bell. I still think hes a good play this week, but for the price i think i can get similar production out of cheaper backs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike FF Today 609 Posted September 26, 2015 Updated Holka's Daily Guidance column. Lynch and his Questionable tag has been removed from Joe's main cash game lineup. Antonio Brown is out to. Inserted Cam Newton and Gronk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snatchit 108 Posted September 26, 2015 Ready to take the plunge with Blount? Here's a cash game lineup for DraftKings... QB Carson Palmer RB L.

I do like the others in this roster though. Fleener is in only if Dwayne Allen is ruled out. Edelmans ownershit % is thru the roof this week, and I guess you got the news Lynch will be a GTD. I am going with SEA in all my action, I dont care on them how much they are owned. I like the Blount call Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted September 26, 2015 Since everyone owns edelman, is it better to go with another option at receiver? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snatchit 108 Posted September 26, 2015 Since everyone owns edelman, is it better to go with another option at receiver? in very, very large tournaments I would say yes, especially if you are rolling out a bunch of top choices. If you match him with another highly owned WR, I think you lose an edge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Criper 24 Posted September 26, 2015 I had Lynch in midweek, but figured everyone would be on him this week considering the opponent and Lynch's success at home. I went cheaper instead (M. Gordon) so I could upgrade at TE, so the news about GTD makes me feel a little better about the decision. Still undecided on D and K. Have been all over the map on those two and prolly won't decide til just before gametime tomorrow lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike FF Today 609 Posted September 26, 2015 I'll be removing Lynch from my cash game lineups unless we get a clear word on his status (which we probably won't). I'll post and updated lineup in the morning... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted September 27, 2015 Since everyone owns edelman, is it better to go with another option at receiver? At $7,700 with an over/under of 48, Edelman's usage percentage shouldn't be a concern. I'd try to find the lower percentage owned QB or RB or WR3 than fret about Julian in my lineups. The guy's a stud and no brainer for that price tag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quickolas1 80 Posted September 27, 2015 At DraftKings because wherever I've read, I've seen an opinion stated that it's better then FanDuel. In a $1 mil guar w/383k entrants (1st prize is 100k)... $3 entry... I see lineups made almost entirely of Giants & Redskins at the top of the standings. If it was a few lineups, I'd think these people are first timers who don't understand the rules. But there are at least 600 lineups with only 60 or 120 player minutes remaining. So basically it appears almost every combination of Giants/Redskins players might have an entry. I'd say the chances of these sites being rigged is 91%.

Dude, that's no where close to bad and its 100% legit that people are idiots that only stack one or two games. Particularly the first game. People truly think contrarian means the most ridiculous combinations ever. Play daily NBA sometime and see how many people will just stack one game thinking they know something others don't. A lot of times they just want to see their name at the top of the leader board or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maulers1973 117 Posted September 28, 2015 I jumped in this week. I had Murray and Freeman with Brady, Edleman and Gronk stack. It worked out, but the Jets defense blew. I almost went with AJ Green instead of A. Brown at WR, but saw something about AJ having a knee thing. If Charles does well tonight I'll finish in the black, but not by much. lol It's kind of fun. Though, I won't enter the million dollar pool. That's just silly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
