Aaron Jones – The Most Productive RB in the 2017 Draft

You probably haven’t heard of Aaron Jones. The former UTEP Miner declared for the draft on New Year’s Eve to little fanfare (Rotoworld were surprised by his decision), and has gotten almost no coverage so far in a much talked-about RB class….

Daily Fantasy Basketball Plays of the Day for Thursday, January 26th

We’ve got a short four game slate here for Thursday, and a relatively unappealing one at that. We’ve got two games low totals, one with a massive spread, and very few studs to choose between. Overall, it looks like you’re going to have to get pretty creative in order to win a GPP…. Membership Required You must be a member to access this content.View Membership...

NASCAR DFS: Does NASCAR’s New Race Format Impact Strategy?

NASCAR announced a major overhaul to both its points system as well as to the race format for the 2017 season. The goal is muli-purposed: to encourage racing throughout the race, to reward both consistency and winning, to provide a cushion for the season’s best drivers in the playoffs so that one bad race doesn’t eliminate them, and to give TV viewers pre-planned commercial breaks…...

Evaluating My 2016 RB Model Performance

Prior to the season I created a machine learning model to project running back performance in 2016, and the results are in. This article is intended not only to evaluate my RB model performance, but to figure out the “why” behind the results and to brainstorm how to improve the model going forward….

Jalen Robinette: Big, Productive, and Under the Radar

Air Force wide receiver Jalen Robinette recorded just 2 receptions for 11 yards in his most recent showing at the East-West Shrine Game last Saturday.

5 Deep IDP Dynasty Stashes for 2017

We’re still at the beginning stages of the NFL offseason calendar but with teams changing coaching staffs, players set to enter free agency, and all of the randomness in the National Football League, it’s never too early to start planning for 2017.

NBA DFS Value Plays – January 21st, 2017

There are 11 games tomorrow; however, we will be leaving out the two games that start before 7 P.M. These value plays are specifically meant for DraftKings but they can be used on FanDuel as well. Point Guard Tyler Johnson ($5,300) Even when the Heat are at full strength, Tyler Johnson manages to produce fantasy points at a consistent clip. It’s odd that he’s only $5,300…...
