All good things come to an end and so is the case with our three-week winning streak. Between Weeks 8 through 10 we were able to surpass an average of 2.5 times value for the players identified weekly in this column…....

Before jumping into week 12, a quick review for the tally on week 11. Cash got there bringing us to nine of 11 on the season. Tournaments were more dicey for me. Being too heavy on Mohamed Sanu and Emmanuel Sanders brought a good deal of failure while D.J. Chark, John Brown, and Michael Thomas were the wide receivers to carry some lineups. It was…...

Michael Dubner uses the DFS Lineup Optimizer and other RotoViz tools to prepare for Week 12 GPPs on FanDuel. Large-field GPPs are primarily won in three key areas: 1) player projections, 2) roster construction, and 3) ownership.

Week 10 was a disastrous one from a cash game perspective, and the Drew Brees and David Montgomery plays lead me to the first week of the season of not sniffing the cash line and the second time in ten weeks of not cashing. These two also wrecked tournament lineups and for me personally, it left me with only my Mahomes stacks salvaging some of…...

Week 9 was a smashing success: the Lions and Seahawks passing games got us everywhere we needed to be. We also got there with help from Zach Ertz, Damien Williams and Christian McCaffrey in tournaments. Cash is now eight for nine on the season and this week is set up to keep it rolling. We have another short slate here in week 10, just 10…...

The Fantasy Football Ghost has scored big for us all season long, let’s see what he has in store for Week 10!
