Welcome to the DFS Watch List for NFL Week 16!

Wow. Week 16, huh? Truth be told, I never thought we would make it this far. It's definitely been a tough season to navigate, but we have all come out on top. Many of us have won money and those who may have struggled early on, hopefully, learned a lot about things like contest selection and bankroll management. Win or lose, I am proud of everyone for persevering -- both you the members of #FANation, and the analysts who have worked their asses off to bring you the information you need to succeed. This #FAmily is my family and I wouldn't want it any other way. OK, well I would like to see us all win more money over the next two weeks and through the playoffs, so let's give each other a big virtual hug, and let's get to the action this week. We have one game Friday, three on Saturday, a 10-game main slate for Sunday afternoon, and then both Sunday and Monday nights! Because I will be doing a separate Playbook for Saturday and Sunday again, the Watch List will focus on those games. You will get Showdown write-ups for Friday, Sunday, and Monday night.

Before we start, I always like to show exactly what last week's Playbook delivered. We always like to check in to ensure we remain on the right path, regardless of overall results.

Scoring The Playbook Week 15

Delivering high value at quarterback, running back and wide receiver highlights the Playbook and great dart throws were in the Dart Board.

  • The average score at quarterback was the fourth highest of the year at 26.2 and delivered an average value of almost 4X (3.9).
  • Three quarterbacks had more than 30 points.
  • Great value was found with Leonard Fournette , Brandon Aiyuk and the high score with DeAndre Hopkins
  • The Dart Board averaged 12 points per player, easily the highest of the year and 3.1X Value.
  • The highest score that could be made with the Playbook & Dart Board was 194.2

Now, obviously, hindsight is 20-20, and hitting the nuts off the Playbook and Dart Board is still tough to do given the number of possible permutations, but what it shows is that the work is being done to give you the best possible chances to win. And it's more than just going to the Lineup Generator, clicking Playbook & Dart Board Only, and generating lineups. You have to study the match-ups, read the content, and build around your favorites after the research is done. We whittle down the player pool for you, but you still need to perfect your lineup construction methods and select the right contests.

If you are one of our new subscribers, welcome! Love seeing the #FAmily grow. As just an FYI -- This piece will be continuously updated throughout the week, based on the most recent news and injuries which means you may see a name or two removed as we get closer to kick-off. You may also see a few late-week additions who pique our interest for some reason too, and by the end of the week, this Watch List will eventually become your Playbook. Again, it’s about teaching you the process.

With that all being said, it's time to check-in and see which players we are looking at for DFS this week.
