We had a nice bounce-back week last week, going 14/22 and hitting at a 64% clip, which is right in line with this article’s average hit rate on the season. Last week’s cover player hit right away, now going 7/9 (78%) on cover players this year for what that’s worth, and it was surprising to see Jennings not be more involved after his initial TD, but nonetheless paid off at the low price point of $4,300. This week, we’ve got a 10-game slate with seven games via the early window and three games in the afternoon. I’m eyeing down 5-6 main lineups this week at full units, with another full unit on the afternoon-only slate.
The goal of this article is to provide some insight and transparency into my DFS & betting process and approach leading up to an NFL slate, along with picks and plays that I’ve landed on for this week in result. Generally, my goal for the season is to provide DFS plays that hit at a 65-70% clip, and we are just about doing that.
Any given week, the approach and strategy may adjust, depending on what the slate looks like and how I want to attack it.
Let’s dive into preparation for this week and see how we are attacking Week 10!
