NASCAR DFS Watkins Glen Post-Practice Model

This has to be a quick post, because I’m off at a wedding this weekend, but here is the NASCAR DFS Watkins Glen model after practice. I’ve added in a predicted starting position, which is also algorithmic based, just so we can have some semblance of how drivers might fare in qualifying, to help us find early values…....

Win the Flex: The 2017 Edition

Perhaps the most complicated position in fantasy football is not an actual position at all, but rather a confluence of multiple skill positions more commonly known as “the flex.” It’s something we’ve written a lot about at RotoViz, because the key to success is to win the flex position…....

Pocono Practice Notes and Post-Practice Model

NASCAR’s two practice sessions have concluded today. I have some practice notes and speeds from each session, and my post-practice NASCAR DFS Pocono model. The model will be great to identify the best cars this weekend, so that when qualifying comes we can pick out the chalk as well as the best pivot plays off the chalk…....

NASCAR DFS Pocono: Model Power Rankings and Early Values

To get the early jump on NASCAR DFS Pocono this weekend, I used my machine learning model to generate expected finishing position for each driver just based off their driver attributed and performance histories this year and at similar tracks. This let’s us create a power ranking for each driver purely based off the most accurate model fits possible, and with no subjectivity. This way…...

NASCAR DFS Pocono Coverage Schedule This Week

The NASCAR Cup Series heads to Pocono this weekend, and the weekend schedule is quite odd. Qualifying will take place on Sunday at 11:30am ET and should finish 2.5 hours before the race starts at 3:00pm ET. That means we’re going to have to do things a bit different with the NASCAR DFS Pocono coverage this week. Here’s how things will shake out…....

NASCAR DFS Picks and Projections for Indianapolis

Last weekend was a great weekend for RotoViz readers, as I wrote up 5 of the 6 drivers in the winning lineup in my NASCAR DFS picks article. Multiple RotoViz subscribers tied for 1st in the $325k Beast GPP last weekend. This week is one of the largest prize pools of the year, for the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis. DraftKings has a $400k GPP with $50k…...

Want Crazy-Late TE Upside? Swoope, There It Is!

I don’t know what it is about late-round TEs with awesome music names, but here we are again. I want to start off by giving a very enthusiastic tip of the cap to Danny Tuccitto, who provides several of the stats in this article and helped confirm my Swoon for Swoope. Yes, Erik Swoope (there it is)!…...

NASCAR DFS Picks and Projections for Kentucky

After a hugely successful week, where I took down the $444 buy-in GPP and finished third in the $350k Beast GPP, along with a RotoViz reader placing 2nd, 4th, 5th, and 6th in the Beast, we move on to my NASCAR DFS picks and projections for Kentucky…....

Zero RB

There Have Never Been Better Circumstances for Zero RB

Yeah, yeah — I know what you’re saying. “You guys preach Zero RB every year.” Well, there’s no doubt that’s true, and it undoubtedly bit us last year, and we’ll take the loss on that. But I’m going back to the well, and with good reason. Zero RB is poised to be better than ever in 2017 in your PPR redraft leagues…....

Fantasy Football Points Projections for 2017

The RotoViz writers have been grinding hard this offseason, not only with many great articles, but also behind the scenes with our internal staff projection machine. We’ve completed our first pass at our fantasy football points projections for 2017. Each team has at least 15 individual projections averaged together in a wisdom of the crowd approach…....

NASCAR DFS Picks, Ownership and Race Projections for Daytona

This week NASCAR goes back to Daytona for the second time. DraftKings has another big $350k prize pool GPP with $50k to first place for their NASCAR DFS Daytona slate. Hopefully one of you all will win the NASCAR DFS Daytona GPP and FRWC qualifiers! As usual I’ll give my NASCAR DFS picks, points projections, and ownership projections for Saturday night’s race…....

What the Hell People? Draft Kenny Britt Sooner!

Kenny Britt is currently being drafted as the WR51 in best-ball leagues. In the first mock draft conducted by ESPN’s fantasy football experts (10-team, standard format), Britt went as the WR55. His Expert Consensus Ranking is more respectable, at WR44 in standard and WR46 in PPR formats. But seriously people…what gives?!…...

NASCAR DFS Picks, Ownership and Race Projections for Sonoma
