Despite another spate of postponements and cancelations this week, we get another nice selection of college football games for our Saturday DFS slates.

Week 14 provides a big, 13-game slate with some juicy, high-priced options like Devante Adams and Derrick Henry. But there are also some tantalizing players to be found deeper in the salary pool. Here are five value players (OK, four this week) under $5,000 on DraftKings. Jalen Hurts, Eagles QB […]
College Football DFS: Bailey Hockman and NC State Could Yield Big Points
The first Saturday in December sees a massive 14-game slate on DraftKings (which would have been 15 before the postponement of Coastal Carolina-Liberty).

NFL DFS: Deshaun Watson, Texans Should Feast on Thanksgiving
It wouldn’t be Thanksgiving without turkey, Cowboys, and Lions. This year’s Thanksgiving Day slate includes Houston at Detroit, Baltimore at Pittsburgh, and Washington at Dallas. The DFS sites priced players fairly cheaply this year, so you can plug and play almost anyone you want this Thanksgiving. Here are the players […]
College Football DFS: Kyle Trask and Florida Should Roll
Saturday’s college football DFS slate features several games with projected team totals in the 20s, which is surprising given the amount of poor defense we’ve seen this season. But, burners still exist as teams like Florida, Alabama, Clemson, and Ohio State are all projected to score in the 40s. Winning […]

NFL Week 10 Value Plays: Mike Davis a Must-Play
Week 10 of the NFL season will see an 11-game slate on DraftKings, with big names like Kyler Murray and Alvin Kamara at the top of the salary lists. As usual, if you want to play those games, you’ll need to find value at the spots lower on the chart. […]
