Last week somebody on Twitter tried to blast the work that we do here on the DFS Playbook. As you can imagine, I got real irritated and put the dude on blast. I shouldn't have wasted my time but I didn't mind because I don't see it as a waste of time. If people don't realize the work that goes into the Playbook every week than they need to know. Taking 350 potential NFL players and dissecting them down to the absolute best 20-25 across multiple sites and contests is not easy work. Not only do we have to break down which players have the absolute best matchups in a given week but we have to mix and match them in order for real life usability. I know that other sites and analysts out there go game by game and tell you who they like in each matchup. But if you total up the "usable" players, you usually end up with 40+ guys most of whom are the most expensive at their positions.
The truth is that most analysts don't want to give you this information. They look at you as the competition and though they want you to play, I have a very difficult time believing most of them want you to win. That is not the case here at Fantasy Alarm. We created the DFS Playbook to give regular folks all of the information that they need to create lineups and win in a quick and simple manner. We have won our readers $1.049 million on Draft Kings alone so far this year (MLB & NFL). That is a badge of honor for us and we want that number to double in week seven alone.
Here is the Sunday edition of the DFS NFL Playbook for Week 7:
