Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks – March 15
We had a good night at FanDuel last night. Our lineup either won or placed in the money in six out of seven entries with 47.2 points. I was also happy to hear from some readers that the lineup helped put a few bucks in their pockets. Chris Stewart and Jake Allen were our stars. […]
Using the Late Round QB Draft Strategy in 2-QB Fantasy Football Leagues Part 2
In part one of this installment I looked at using the late round quarterback (LRQB) draft strategy in a 2-QB fantasy football league where quarterback points were valued higher than standard fantasy leagues, as I looked at using the LRQB strategy in 2-QB league where passing touchdowns were worth 6 points instead of the standard […]
Steven Jackson signs with Atlanta Falcons: Escape From 8 in the Box
Steven Jackson inked a three-year deal with the Atlanta Falcons today, confirming one of the worst kept secrets of this year’s free agency cluster hug (edited for general audiences). The 30-year-old steamroller of a running back never failed to eclipse 1,000 total yards in his final eight years with the St. Louis Rams. He was a […]
Week 20 Fantasy Basketball Stock Market: The Replacements

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks – March 14
I hope our daily FanDuel NHL picks from yesterday are a signal of things to come. We went 3-1 in head-to-heads as our lineup scored 36.20 points. Jarome Iginla was our lone dud with -0.6 fantasy points. There are 11 games tonight so the player pool is very large. Because the player pool is so […]
Wes Welker to the Denver Broncos: Fantasy Implications
How good can Wes Welker, the veritable and aptly named Slot Machine, be in the Denver Broncos’ well-oiled offense? Let’s begin here: Brandon Stokley, an aged, replacement level slot receiver (and a Peyton Manning security blanket over the years) caught 45 passes for 544 yards and five touchdowns in 2012. I see no reason, even […]
Reggie Bush is a Detroit Lion: All Sorts of Fantasy Goodness
Reggie Bush, a day after it was reported that the Detroit Lions were offering him a three-down gig, signed in the Motor City, simultaneously becoming a potential cold-blooded PPR killing machine while submarining the fantasy value of Mikel Leshoure. Bush, who wasn’t exactly used as a workhorse back in Miami – receiving 12 carries or […]
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks – March 13
The player pool doesn’t get much smaller than this for daily fantasy sports purposes as there are only three NHL games tonight. I went high-risk/high-reward yesterday and was not rewarded. Somehow the lineup still went 2-2 in head-to-heads. A win is a win so I’ll take it. I’m going to take Miikka Kiprusoff in net as […]
