I am very pleased to leak the news that we are currently in the works to bring the DFS Playbook to video in the next couple of weeks!! Ted Schuster and I will be hosting the show which will air on Fantasy Alarm TV as well as on DraftKings TV (DKTV). We are very excited about this opportunity to bring you guys even more detailed coverage of our daily fantasy baseball and weekly fantasy football picks.
Every week the DFS Playbook is getting better and better. Granted we are only two weeks in but this week I was able to use the brand new Fantasy Alarm Daily Tools and infuse those with my snap count data to get some great prices per workload this week. Injuries have severely impacted the higher end RB's this week which creates a few obstacles for us in weekly leagues. Usually I like to pay for my RB's because there is so much value at the WR & TE positions normally. This week I am basically playing the PPR RB game and locking in a few guys who are assured enough touches to supplement my stud WR group.
