WordPress is a little...um...different this morning. So, my format is as well. Just going to comment on all the guys I wrote up. I lost on DK and SD, but I won on FD. Mahomes didn't quite go nuclear; he put up 27.98 DK points which was over the necessary 2.7x. That

Prelude The pay line in cash games was absurd last week. This happens a few times a year and is a major factor into the average pay line. It usually happens when chalk players like Henry and Mattison (over 60% owned last week) go bananas. This is why we want players

This week was one of those ones where it was tough to get mad about. On Draftkings I achieved my 2.6x the 50K salary, but sadly it was woefully short as the cash line was an inflated 163.58, which is roughly 3.3x. This is why we need players with upside,

QB Kyler Murray - $8000  1x  $8500 Forgive me for living under a rock, but I just realized today (writing this on Thursday night) that the Cardinals are 4 - 0. In fact, it might be a chink in my DFS armor that I don't often pay attention to team records because,

My Lineups Across 3 Sites DK Darnold Moss Sermon McLaurin Davis Smith Kelce OBJ Lions SD Hurts Hubbard Henry McLaurin Smith OBJ Kelce Harris FD Mahomes Moss Sermon Davis McLaurin OBJ Kelce Metcalf Lions I cashed with all three.   The Good I'm taking a victory lap on Sam Darnold. I pay attention to the fantasy industry frequently, and I heard zero talk about Darnold this week. I questioned myself right up until lock but thankfully stuck to my guns as I want

Kicking this week off with bonus seasonal fantasy football advice: Just. Say. No. To. Josh. Gordon. Listen, everyone loves a good redemption story. In fact, I tried to write my own last week. Gordon hasn't really been fantasy relevant since 2013. In 2013 I was not yet a parent, I didn't

Boris's Week Three Autopsy Here were my lineups this week:   DK Herbert Davis White Sutton Chase Jones Kelce Kupp Bengals SD Murray Mattison Ekeler Moore Jones Williams Kelce Metcalf FD Mahomes Mattison Barkley Williams Chase Metcalf Kelce Kupp Cardinals I cashed on all three. Awhile ago I learned to always throw your cash lineup into a gpp just in case. My Fanduel lineup scored 194.3 points, which in a gpp netted me an ROI of 80x my entry fee.   The Good I liked

Boris’s Week Three DFS Writeup It’s been a long week. Between being busy at work and the losses incurred during week two, I have been eager to try and make amends for week 3, whilst finding time to put in the research. The bankroll took a big ole hit last week,

Boris's Week Two Autopsy   Again, here is where I will dissect my own advice. What went well, what did not, and what was missed.   That late hammer I was talking about? I guess it was the one from Thor Ragnarok. Seriously, when Cate Blanchett breaks Mjölnir, I got rattled...just like yesterday.   My lineups

Boris's DFS Week Two Write Up   Hey all. Let’s continue our initial success from week one onto to week two! Biggest thing to note is that week two is different from week one. I don’t know of a sport that is more matchup based than football. Just because Corey Davis did

Boris’s Week One Review    So many analysts I have followed and listened to over the years neglect to do one thing I think is important for credibility: dissect their own advice after the games have been played. In the space below, I will show you my lineups, tell you how I

Boris’s DFS Week One Writeup Happy weekend everyone. I know that Saturday may be a tough day for some, it certainly is a day I’ve been and continue to be affected by, but it also serves as a nice reminder about how lucky we are to get to watch football, and
