NFL DFS First Look at DraftKings Salaries for Week 17 (Fantasy Football)
This week will be the briefest version of the First Look all year. It’s Christmas Eve!
I thought instead I’d give you a behind-the-scenes look at how I sort every single week for the skill positions (RB, WR, TE) and some of the metrics I use form our site as well as routes-based metrics from FantasyPoints’ Data Suite.
Every week the First Look article gives you a taste of the slate and some of the more intriguing salaries that DraftKings and FanDuel release. The goal is to identify early-week cash game considerations, as well as potential tournament plays before we piece together the stacking options. On Tuesdays, I share some of these insights on the Fantasy Footballers DFS & Betting Podcast if you want further commentary on some of the salary standouts.
Check back later in the week when Matthew Betz and I share our official DraftKings and FanDuel picks for cash and GPPs exclusively in the DFS Pass.
For newcomers, the main slate for DFS includes the Sunday early (1:00 EST) and afternoon games (4:25 EST).
