Dfsr's Nfl Daily Fantasy Podcast

The uncertainty train rolls on, with Atlanta catching multiple positive Covid-19 tests on Wednesday morning. The DFSR team soldiers on, giving you their cash game plays for week 6. On FanDuel, quarterback has one clear leader of the pack in DeShaun Watson. On DraftKings, the guys discuss potentially chasing some cheaper options in Ryan Fitzpatrick or Matthew Stafford. It's a very short main slate, and the savings might matter more than ever. Two running back plays look fairly locked in right now, with Mike Davis and Alexander Mattison leading the pack by a fair margin. If Mattison doesn't play, however, things get dicey in a hurry. The guys discuss other options, like Ronald Jones Jr., Aaron Jones, and even Kareem Hunt in a tough match-up. Wide receiver gives us a few more great mid-range options in Jamison Crowder and Robby Anderson, and then a wide variety of options to choose from after that. Can we trust Calvin Ridley if Julio Jones returns? What about Chase Claypool or Travis Fulgham? Wide receiver is ve

It's hard to remember a time with less certainty in the NFL. We've got whole games in jeopardy, big stars with injury tags, and a number of teams with incredibly unusual starts to the season. God, it's great to have sports in our lives again. In this week's game by game breakdown the guys discuss how this week is shaping up. Is there any running back value to be had here? Can we trust Kareem Hunt given what we saw from D'Ernest Johnson last week? Will Damien Harris continue to shoulder most of the carries for New England? Or are we better off playing it safe with the likes of Mike Davis and James Conner? There's a lot to discuss there. Wide receiver poses challenges of its own. The guys were bullish on Terry McLaurin in the cash game podcast yesterday, but with Kyle Allen taking over as his QB do they feel the same way? Will the change in coaching staff in Houston be good or bad for the Texans' offense in the near term? What on Earth can we make of the Falcons' receiving corps after what we saw last week? The

Week 5 is here, and Doug and James are back to break down their cash game plays on DraftKings and FanDuel. With the league swirling with uncertainty surrounding Covid-19, we should understand that these are preliminary looks at cash game selections. That being said, we do have a number of good options this week. Quarterback looks to be a position we are going to pay up at again, with the usual suspects all looking like great plays in good match-ups. The guys discuss whether we can trust Dak's production given the wild game scripts the Cowboys have played, whether we can take a little savings and play Deshaun Watson, or even turn to Teddy Bridgewater on DraftKings. Running back features a few interesting cheaper options in Mike Davis, Kareem Hunt, and Jerick McKinnon, with some nice expensive options in Ezekiel Elliott and Derrick Henry (if the Titans play, of course). Wide receiver was more of a mixed bag, with Amari Cooper ($7,800 on FD) being the only expensive wide receiver entering into consideration. It

With Henry getting bumped off the main slate and Michael Thomas potentially returning to cut into Alvin Kamara's targets, running back is starting to look pretty thin all of a sudden. Do we spend all the way up for Zeke? Can we get by with Josh Jacobs as an underdog against the Bills? What about some cheaper options in good match-ups, like Joe Mixon, or Darrell Henderson Jr.? It's never fun to have big question marks at running back, and the guys wade through the options in each game. Wide receiver offers us a ton of value across the board, with excellent high priced options like DeAndre Hopkins, all the way down to great cheap options like Will Fuller V or Tyler Boyd. Heck, we even have a well fleshed out mid range of wide receiver options with the resurgence of Keenan Allen and Allen Robinson. For that reason we'll likely be filling our wide receiver slot last based on where we need to pay up elsewhere. All in all week 4 is shaping up to be another barn burner, so be sure to turn in and hear the DFSR team

Week 4 is here, and Doug and James are back to break down their cash game plays on DraftKings and FanDuel. While there is less obvious value heading into this week, things are taking a pretty clear direction early on. The guys agree that you're likely going to want to pay up at quarterback this week, picking between names Kyler Murray, Dak Prescott, and Russell Wilson. Running back is going to look a lot different this week as well with fewer obvious cheap value options this week. DFSR is looking to lean on high usage guys like Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Derrick Henry, while trying to find some cheap targets from Mike Davis. Since we're spending up heavily at running back and quarterback we'll likely middle out wide receiver with high target value options like Tyler Lockett, Amari Cooper, and even a resurgent Keenan Allen. Tight end looks disastrous as always, but the guys make the case for Jimmy Graham after Nick Foles took over at QB and his production exploded.

Doug and James get their heads together for their exhaustive game by game breakdown for the week 3 main slate on FanDuel and DraftKings. It's hard to remember a week more influenced by injuries, with big names across every position missing this week or done for the season. Not all punt plays are created equally, however, and the guys discuss the differences between grabbing back-ups for the Panthers, both New York teams, the 49ers, and more. Meanwhile, there are a number of wide receivers in new situations that we need to adjust. James and Doug talk about how they are readjusting their priors on guys like Stefon Diggs, DeAndre Hopkins, Mike Evans, and the various rookie wide receivers. They also discuss a few interesting betting plays. All in all, this is not a podcast you want to miss.

Week 3 is a strange one for cash games, mostly because the plays seem very straight forward. A slew of running back injuries has left us with too many great punt options to choose from, with Jonathan Taylor, Jerick McKinnon, and Mike Davis all looking like great cash game options. When we have that much money left over we're basically just picking between big name stars at other positions. The guys discuss the choice between Cam Newton and Kyler Murray at quarterback, where it looks like site based pricing might be a deciding factor. Wide receiver lends itself to some interesting considerations as well, with the primary discussion trending around how much we can trust two weeks of stats this year versus stats from last year. Is Diontae Johnson the real deal? Can we expect Calvin Ridley to shoulder most of the targets in Atlanta? There is a lot to discuss. Finally the guys wrap things up at tight end, where we might have the luxury of paying up at tight end for the first (and perhaps last) time this season.

The DFSR team is back with a comprehensive game by game breakdown of every contest on the main slate this week. There's a lot more certainty headed into week 2 after we've had a week to see what coaches have planned for their teams, but the guys also discuss the importance of not reacting to outlier performances from week 1. The guys discuss which big performances looked legit, which disappointing performances are concerning, and where we should expect regression to the mean. There are too many individual performances to pin down in this writeup, so you'll have to tune in to hear how Doug and James are approaching this week's contests on FanDuel and DraftKings.

The DFSR team is back with their cash game picks for week two of NFL DFS on FanDuel and DraftKings. It's a nice and full main slate of games with plenty of great options at every position, so this week looks like one where we're trying to find the cream of the crop rather than settling for merely good plays. Except for tight end. Screw tight end. The guys agree that Kyler Murray is the chalk QB option out of the gate, but nod to a few other options that are at least worth consideration. At running back there are two excellent $8,000+ options in Derrick Henry and Clyde Edwards-Helaire, with some cheap options to fill things out. Wide receiver is very deep, with great options across multiple price points. The big question there will surround where we want to allocate our funds. Tight end is a disaster as usual, where the expensive guys are too expensive and the cheap guys are very risky.

The DFSR team is back with a game by game breakdown for every single contest on the NFL main slate for DraftKings and FanDuel. The theme throughout the podcast remains the same: trusting known situations. With so much uncertainty leading into the season, Doug and James talk about how we should expect to see guys in new situations take a little while to get on the same page. There is a lot of buzz for guys like Henry Ruggs III, or Tom Brady, or Todd Gurley, but those aren't necessarily situations you need to be a week early on. There are a lot of spots where we can get value, and dream on big upside at the same time. We don't have space to discuss it all here - you'll have to jump into the podcast to hear where DFSR sees things heading early in the season. Want the projections that power these podcasts?

The DFSR team is back with a DFS NFL cash game podcast for week 1! It looks like this NFL season is actually going to happen, so we might as well go ahead and make some money off of it. Things start at quarterback, where Doug and James debate the merits of paying up for Lamar Jackson vs. finding safety with a cheaper option. If you do fade Jackson, how cheap can you go? They discuss Russell Wilson, Carson Wentz, and Teddy Bridgewater. Running back for week 1 is looking very difficult, with Christian McCaffrey standing out as one of the only truly safe points per dollar options. The guys discuss a few young running backs from last season that are looking to take over the reins full time, and agree that it's looking like a tough position in general. There are a good handful of cheap wide receivers out there, though, with the DFSR lineup optimizer projecting a lot of targets for guys like Jarvis Landry, Tyler Lockett, DeSean Jackson, and more. Tight end looks like a battle between Zach Ertz and Hayden Hurst, wit

But there’s plenty of discussion around the group below, especially on DraftKings where the pricing seems too be a bit soft.  They get into Xander Schauffle, Daniel Berger and Abraham Ancer among other.  And finally, both talk about some of the value plays who could round out cash lineups.

Chris Durell and Doug Norrie are back on the podcast this week, talking more PGA action for The Rocket Mortgage Classic. After a few loaded fields following the restart, this week’s tournament isn’t quite as packed.  They start of talking about the craziness with the Travelers considering the withdraws both before and during the tournament, DFSR users hitting it big, Dustin Johnson pulling out the win and more.  Then it’s on to the Rocket Mortgage where they break down the standout plays. They start with Bryson deChambeau who could be the highest-owned play in the field even at such a high price.  They also talk about Viktor Hovland, Hideki Matsuyama and others in the upper tier.  Doc Redman could be the chalk play as well after a second-place finish here last season. All of this and much more as the guys break down the field and what to expect for The Rocket Mortgage Classic.  Check out dfsr.com/membership And Patreon.com/jagerbombs for more PGA projections and content.

Chris Durell and Doug Norrie are back on the podcast with another week of PGA action, this time around for the Travelers Championship. It’s another loaded field with golfers seeming to make up for lost time after months of hiatus. But you get another run of the superstars heading into the weekend.  The guys take a look at the Pete Dye course and how to best extract value from a field what’s essentially a who’s who. They start with changes Bryson DeChambeau has made in terms of body type and even style of play. They also talk about Patrick Cantlay returning to the field and coming in at a value on DraftKings in particular.  There’s also much discussion around the upper middle tier with guys like Tony Finau, Ian Poulter, Matthew Fitzpatrick, Brian Harman, Harry Higgs and Matthew NeSmith.  They also discuss some bets to put in for winners, top 10s and top 20s heading into the weekend. It’s a packed podcast with everything you need to get started on the Travelers Championship. Check out www.dfsr.com/deals for acc

DFSR’s Chris Durell and Doug Norrie are back on the podcast discussing this week’s PGA action with the RBC Heritage. It’s another loaded field with golf just a week removed from its return after the hiatus. That means we have another superstar event with the world’s top golfers taking part.  The guys go through last week’s results, where things went right or wrong at the Charles Schwab Challenge. Then they discuss the very soft pricing on DraftKings this week with guys like Justin Rose and Webb Simpson to name just a couple. There are others as well. They compare this with FanDuel where you might be able to take slightly different lineup builds.  And finally, they talk value plays, Showdown strategy, weather and more. 

The DFSR podcast is back and this time around talking PGA returning with the Charles Schwab Challenge going down this weekend. Chris Durell and Doug Norrie take to the podcast to do a deep dive on the tournament and the player pool for what will be a very popular tournament on DraftKings and FanDuel.  They start off with Chris breaking down what to expect from the course at the Colonial Country Club and what skills will have an advantage this weekend.  Then it’s a discussion about the different players and salary tiers on both sites. They talk at length about Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas and Webb Simpson along with Tony Finau and Matt Kuchar among the more expensive golfers.  But they also go through plenty of value plays as well in a very deep field.

It's a crossover podcast with the guys breaking down a huge Wednesday in the NBA. With NFL winding down the DFSR crew will be focusing on the NBA podcast going forward. You can listen and subscribe to the podcast on Overtime - http://overtime.media/fantasy/dfsrs-daily-nba-podcast or on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts. The guys are breaking down a huge slate of NBA action with tons of teams, plenty of value and they'll look at all the relevant news. They talk Philly without Ben Simmons, James Harden vs. Lebron James, Karl-Anthony Towns being off a minutes restriction, the Nuggets, Clippers and much more.

Doug Norrie is joined by Chris Durell to break down the two-game Conference Championship playoff slate for FanDuel and DraftKings. They look back at the Divisional Round which had some truly insane games, especially on the AFC side and try to find takeaways from different performances. Of course, they have to talk about Derrick Henry and his outlier performances over the last three weeks. He's rushed the ball more than 30 times in each game which simply just doesn't happen in the modern-day NFL. They also try to make sense of cash game builds where it probably makes sense to employ a true stars and scrubs approach to lineups this week. They roll through both games talking about the opportunity, players to target and some guys to avoid. It's a packed podcast.
