    Who do you think could be sleepers this week for these one week games?

    Jets: Devin Smith or Jeff Cumberland could have big games with Dicker out. No one is taking either of them.

    Rams: Looks like Gurley is going to play, could be off a lot of people's radars

    Yesterday was a brutal day for DK. I thought I was golden with Olsen, Peterson. Next thing I know, AJ, Julio, Freeman, and Joseph Randle go APESHIT! I've won $ first two weeks. Nothing this week.

    I didn't see this thread before! What leagues do you guys enter? I've had success so far with the 50/50 with a huge pool, the more people the better.

    I enter the big contests (GPP). I mostly break even.
    50/50s are probably the best way to make money.

    I also added Charles Clay to this list for 3.5k. Giants get murdered by tightened.

    And for those who enter big ass tournaments and want to be different .. maxx Williams TE Baltimore. Crockett Gilmore is out and Williams picked up 6 targets in the 2H from flacco last week. Only 2.5k too. I'm starting him in fantasy along with flacco.

    Also -- I would avoid all players in that Eagles Washington game. This hurricane should make that a slop fest and I've read they could even postpone the game until week 8 since both teams have The same bye week and make this their bye.

    Nice. I have some of those guys.

    my other value picks so far

    Derek Carr
    Crabtree
    Woodhead
    Dunbar

    I'm playing CAR but if you go with a cheap D I would take a chance on ATL.

    Rawls is Monday that's too risky.

    Rishard got me big points last week, he's the kind of guy that will give our LB fits, but the pools I entered won't let me pick players from the early game.

    Benjamin I think has no value with McCown.

    I like Williams, Clay, Ginn picks.

    I've been ignoring Benjamin, but he is scoring 3x to 4x his salary every week. Felt like I had to put him in a lineup this week.

    With Rawls, I'm planning on starting him on at least one ticket, and if Marshawn is active I'll switch to Theo Riddick before gametime. I may free up some Salary so I can swap between Rawls and Ameer Abdullah if need be depending on the status of Joique Bell.

    that's not a bad idea depending on how much Abdullah costs

    I would stay away from the Lions rbs all together this week at least. Actually I would stay away from any offensive player in that game period.

    Put in a $100 on Draft kings. I win $5.00 then lose $10.00. Will be winning until all of a sudden someone with a crazy roster wins the pool. I think it's rigged. I am getting out with $80.00 left. Has anyone here won big?

    I do wonder about this, especially with the bigger tournaments. it would be pretty easy for them to have a handful of fake teams that conveniently end up with optimal picks to prevent any real contestants from hitting the biggest prizes. unless there is some third party logging every roster at the beginning and end what's to stop them?

    I don't believe there is any entity regulating this sort of thing. I am still shicked it's legal.
