OFFICIAL Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) Thread - DK,FD vol. Addictive Personalities Beware

[d e beatup]

d e beatup I hope you hit for 5 figures this week man. You're always willing to give some advice(bad or good).

You deserve a big win G. I just spoke it in to being. You will find some glory this week

I sure appreciate the compliment my man. I just like to give my perspective, I hope people consider it but don't take it for gospel truth. I thinking of placing 2 $50 entries so I'll take that prophecy for sure.

lineup for nfl this weekend. tips appreciated

QB Tom Brady
RB Chris Ivory
RB Joseph Randle
WR Julian Edelman
WR James Jones
WR Amari Cooper
TE Rob Gronkowski
K Stephen Gostkowski
D Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Wait until the final injury reports come out. If Eddie Lacy can't go or is questionable/doubtful then James Starks will be a good minimum price option & you can spend more on the other back. He'll have high ownership in tourney play though

 

[stick]

I'm playing Taliaferro in a few GPPs this week. 3rd down, goal line back. If he can steal away two TDs he'll be golden. Perfect GPP punt .

 

[rook]

I like Chris Polk this week as well.

All over Devonta Freeman though.

 

[xxpizzo]

eSports is now apart of DK with LOL (League of Legends) man let COD eSports come to DK ill cook it. 

 

[proshares]

I was in the lobby around 5 this morning and just started cracking up when I saw LoL in the lobby

a-friend still disagree about McCullers but he proved me wrong last night on DK at least. Just hit value, good call on him.

I feel like Bell is gonna be super popular and everyone is going to assume Week 2 STL defense is their talent level.

 

[steebie j]

Thursday start date line up. Got the same line up on FD as well but got Demaryius Thomas instead of Sanders and Cardinals instead of Texans.

staying away from freeman. under 3 yards per carry isn't worth the risk. I'm going to be all over Starks if Lacy is out. He always has solid games when given opportunity.

 

[proshares]

Fitz/Marshall is gonna be my highest owned GPP pairing. Maybe a couple LU's with Foles.

[jrod54life]

i gave up on baseball too inconsistent on to NFL and wait for NBA to flourish

 

[proshares]

I think Scherzer is my favorite play today. I really wanna use Kluber but they pulled him so early last time out + rain issues. Lynn's been so bleh the last 5 times out but I like him at home. I honestly might go back to the well with this crappy Brewers lineup and take Hendricks. Or, give myself palpitations with Ventura.

 

[rook]

I'm playing Taliaferro in a few GPPs this week. 3rd down, goal line back. If he can steal away two TDs he'll be golden. Perfect GPP punt .

I have a really nice LU with him. Seems to me the team likes him a ton

 

[steebie j]

Was able to put a respectable line up with Greinke and Scherzer. I'm not in love with any of the mid to lower tier pitchers unless yall have some to use?

Pretty sure im done picking lead off batters they seem to never look out when i pick them in stacking a team

 

[a-friend]

a-friend still disagree about McCullers but he proved me wrong last night on DK at least. Just hit value, good call on him.

.

I didn't really pick McCullers for him, I picked him because he was playing the Angels.

Angels/Yankees/Colorado/SD, probably the Mets now, are a few of the teams I normally target. I'd take Rusin or Harang if they were playing the Angels.

Even after he gave up 2 bombs and hit Freese in the 1st inning, I wasn't super worried.

But in all seriousness, Mets are an easy team to target, if they do put up runs its after the starting pitcher has made an exit(no matter the Pitcher)

 

[a-friend]

Today's 5 pitchers...and in this order

Grienke
Scherzer
Yordano
Lynn
Hendricks

 

[proshares]

I think Ventura is the move if you're looking for a high K upside guy. Think Cashner is going to get overlooked. At home, he's pretty above average. If Posey is out again, I like him.

 

[proshares]

Greinke has been scratched tonight.

 

[suavamente]

Ventura could also get smacked around the Mariners been on fire lately high floor high ceiling

 

[bhzmafia14]

I'm not usually in here , but..

I like Colon and Stroman tonight outside of the obvious (Greinke). Stroman has been pretty good since returning including a 4H, 3R game against NYY a little over a week ago.

Revere, Goins and Smoak if they play for the Jays against Nova tonight. He's been getting torched by lefties. I'll load up on lefties in the Mets lineup too (Duda, Murphy, Granderson, Johnson) against Perez. For the Red Sox/Rays, Bogaerts, Bradley, Castillo and Pedroia hit lefties pretty well.

The Nats seem to have already been mentioned in here.

 

[a-friend]

Grienke out? Nice, now I don't have to compete against him?

Seattle put up 20runs in 2 games, other than that I'm not worried. I'm starting Yordano against them.

Yordano is  a lock, not sure on my SP2, I have my lineup with Scherezer/Yordano, but I'm not feeling it

 

[bhzmafia14]

Pirates or Rockies stacks may be a good idea @ Coors against Morton / Bergman.

 

[proshares]

It's just another weird night for pitching, especially with Greinke now out.

Ventura is back to his old ways with walks, low IP's and facing the hottest offense in the league.
Lynn hasn't struck out more than 3-4 in 5 of his last 6 and his hard hit % skyrocketed.
Kluber's workload is up in the air.
Scherzer is allowing a lot more HR's lately and BAL has an elite wOBA against RHP's.

It'll be a crap shoot. Bad guys like Conley, Finnegan, Hendricks or Stroman are gonna end up being on GPP winning rosters.
