Fantasy Football Picks: Bengals vs. Jaguars DraftKings NFL DFS MNF Showdown Strategy

What could have been, right? Initially, this clash between the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Cincinnati Bengals had all the makings of a fantastic AFC battle. However, with Joe Burrow (wrist) going down in primetime a couple weeks back, this game suddenly has the vibe of a blowout. At the very least, it’s a crucial contest […]

Where does the time go, people? One day it’s opening night in the NBA, the next it’s the start of December and there’s snow on the ground (at least in Toronto).

Fantasy Football Picks: Seahawks vs. Cowboys DraftKings NFL DFS TNF Showdown Strategy

The current narrative surrounding the Dallas Cowboys is that they haven’t beaten a good team. Unfortunately, I’m not sure Week 13 is going to solve that problem, because I have no idea how to classify the Seattle Seahawks.

Another day, another NBA slate with several questionable superstars. We’ve got just seven games on the docket for this evening, yet that hasn’t made for a lighter injury report, with Nikola Jokic ($12,800; back), Kevin Durant ($10,000; foot) and LeBron James ($9,900; calf) all with their status up in the air. Make sure to keep […]

Two weeks ago I would have been begging the league to flex this game out of a primetime slot, but it honestly doesn’t look so bad at the moment. While the Chicago Bears have been underwhelming for the season as a whole, they are infinitely more watchable with Justin Fields ($11,200) under center. As for […]

We begin the final week of November with a small five-game NBA slate, yet that doesn’t mean there isn’t room for tradition. As is customary, LeBron James ($9,700; calf) is questionable for this evening’s proceedings due to the peskiest calf contusion in the history of mankind. It’s good to have constants in life, right? Let’s […]

Not to get too inside baseball — inside basketball? — but a slate like Friday’s is every DFS writer’s dream. It’s so, so rare to have full injury reports when writing about the NBA on a daily basis. Sure, most of those injury reports are just a bunch of important players listed as questionable, yet […]
