For those of us preparing for XFL DFS, there is some good news. We have official depth charts! With such new teams these depth charts will likely change quickly, but this should be how they start out Week 1, which will help us a lot when trying to set our lineups.
Brandon Silvers will quarterback the Dragons, who will likely be run-heavy. The odds have them as the worst team in the league, but a run-first approach could keep them in games. If they do trail more than not, Silvers would likely end up throwing more than they plan.
The Dragons went after some of the AAF’s top running back’s and have the most tight ends on their roster. There’s no doubt they will run the ball. Ja’Quan Gardner is on top of the depth chart, but they have three strong backs in Gardner, Kenneth Farrow and Trey Williams.
Kasen Williams, Keenan Reynolds and Austin Proehl all have flashed good upside, but the probability of a run based offense will likely hurt their fantasy value. Williams is out for Week 1 though, which could help Reynolds, who has gotten praise this training camp.
