Plays of the Day – NBA DFS Roundup for Friday, February 26th

We have a smaller slate than usual for a Friday, just eight games. Before getting into the picks, I wanted to give a shoutout to our very own Matt LaMarca, who took down first and second place last night in the $100K Thursday NBA Swat for a cool $15,000. Just another epic week for #TeamRotoViz, and hopefully for all of you! We’ll look to keep…...

Ignore Jesse James, Draft Markus Wheaton (or Sammie Coates) in 2016

Some big news came out of Pittsburgh last week when Heath Miller announced that he would be retiring after 11 NFL seasons. The natural reaction to this was to think about Jesse James and his potential role with the Steelers in 2016. However, upon reviewing some information about Todd Haley and the Steelers, I think it will be the wide receiver group that benefits the most from Miller’s…...

Plays of the Day – NBA DFS Roundup for Friday, February 19th

After a nice relaxing All-Star break, the NBA is back! We had a three game warm up session last night, and are greeted tonight with the first major slate since Aaron Gordon was robbed in the dunk contest, 14 games. We also saw the trade deadline come and go yesterday without a true “blockbuster,” but there were definitely some moves to shake DFS value that we need…...

Looking Back at 2015 Dynasty Rookie Drafts: Round 3

I think that it is important to reflect back on the year that was, the process used, and the players that were adored (or scorned) by the fantasy community. This process is especially valuable in dynasty leagues, where the action never stops and player values are constantly changing…....

My Favorite Dynasty Sell High – Devonta Freeman

Full disclosure here: I’m a Devonta Freeman hater. I never liked him as a prospect, and I thought heading into 2015 that the lead RB would be my beloved Tevin Coleman. But after being proven right (Coleman opened as the lead runner), I was proven wrong. Freeman went off for over 1,600 total yards and 14 TDs in his sophomore season, and was the overall RB1, after Coleman…...

Dak Prescott: Your Arbitrage Paxton Lynch

Every year I seem to fall in love with a different quarterback prospect for the upcoming NFL Draft. Full disclosure here: it is almost always a QB that has the ability to run. There is a certain level of arbitrage in running QBs; Even if they are sub-par passers (more than likely the reason they fall in the draft) they can usually post solid fantasy…...

Plays of the Day – NBA DFS Roundup for Friday, February 5th

Happy Friday everyone. I don’t know about you guys, but I have off from work today, and that means even MORE time to focus on tonight’s NBA slate. There are 10 games on tap, with a lot of 7:00 and 7:30 starts (EST). That means probably not a ton of late swaps tonight for DraftKings players, so we really want to nail our initial picks!…...

Plays of the Day – NBA DFS Roundup for Friday, January 29th

We have yet another nine-game slate on tap, one with a ton of star power at our disposal. Finding value is a little trickier, as I think there is some faux value presented to us. This looks like a great slate for cash games, and you should be able to increase your wallet size with some strong selections…....

My Favorite Dynasty Buy Low – Torrey Smith

This post is part of a series of articles where various RotoViz writers name their favorite buy low for dynasty fantasy football, with a look at the 2016 NFL season and beyond. At the conclusion of the series, the authors will get together to rank the various nominations in one final post. In this installment, Anthony Amico discusses his pick, Torrey Smith. When discussing dynasty…...

Plays of the Day – NBA DFS Roundup for Friday, January 22nd

We have a nine game slate on tap, one that features a ton of value due to various injuries around the league. You are really going to have to nail your stud and mid-range picks tonight if you want to cash, because I could see the field being very heavy on a few of the lower priced plays…....

Plays of the Day – NBA DFS Roundup for Friday, January 15th

Happy Friday everyone, thanks for joining me as always for some NBA DFS picks! Tonight’s slate should be awesome, as there are a bunch of high total games as well as some teams coming off good performances last night. With nine games going, I really like this as a heavy cash night, with only maybe 10 percent or so of my bankroll in play going…...

Diary of a DFS Novice: FanDuel Week 17

The NFL regular season has come to a close. I marvel at how quick the year can go by, especially after all the preparation and research we put into the sport. It was not the week I hoped it could be to close out the year, but it was overall a fairly profitable venture. Bankroll Progress Started With: $1,000 Final Total: $1,706.30 You’ll notice that I played…...

Week 17 QB Streamers and the Streamer of the Week

This is it: the most important week for streaming QBs. Whether you are in a league with a two-week championship, or a longer regular season that pushes your league’s title game to Week 17, who you select is for all the money. Special thanks to Eric Braun for filling in for me last week in my absence. We’ll take a look at how he did, and…...

Happy New Year! 2015 is now in the rear-view mirror, and it’s time to start 2016 with some NBA DFS profit. We have a five game slate on tap for tonight, a New Year’s treat from the NBA! As always, be sure to utilize all of the tools we have here at RotoViz to make your lineups more special than kisses at midnight: the NBA…...

2016 NFL Draft Prospect: Wendell Smallwood, RB, West Virginia

The 2015 college football bowl season is upon us. On Saturday, January 2, we will continue the madness with the Cactus Bowl, between West Virginia (7-5) and Arizona State (6-6). An overlooked prospect in this contest is WVU’s junior RB Wendell Smallwood…....
