  • 2026 Fantasy Football Draft Strategy: Data-Driven Tips and Market Inefficiencies

    Fantasy football drafters who rely on gut feel alone are leaving value on the board. The 2026 season presents a unique opportunity to exploit market inefficiencies if you understand the underlying scoring trends and position scarcity patterns. Over the past two seasons, running backs have reclaimed their dominance at the top of the overall scoring leaderboard, yet many draft rooms still overvalue wide receivers in the first round. The key to a winning draft is letting projections, not narratives, drive your picks. This article breaks down the data-backed strategies for 2026, including tier breaks, the RB dead zone, and how to leverage AI-powered rankings for an edge.

It was a fantastic display of football and a reminder of why the NFL is the best reality TV show around. Also, it is great to see that scoring is firmly back in our lives.

The best matchup of the week was probably the Detroit Lions handing Darnold and the Minnesota Vikings their first loss of the season to claim the top spot in the NFC North. The Packers also grabbed a huge win this week, barely edging the Houston Texans in a 24-22 victory, which brings them to 5-2. Kansas City won their Super Bowl rematch against the San Francisco 49ers in a game that wasn’t particularly close, and Russell Wilson shone brightly in his first start for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

  • NFL Week 8 2024 - Start 'Em, Sit 'Em

    One more week of NFL action in the books means even more data pouring into our Gridiron AI algorithm, and our results have gotten better and better. In Week 7, our Sits were especially hot, with 5 of our 8 scoring less than 10 points on the week. Our data remains dead-on when it comes to reading quarterbacks, and the accuracy for receivers and running backs keeps climbing, with the difference between our projections and the final lines coming eerily close at times. So, with Halloween right around the corner, let’s dive into our Week 8 Starts and Sits.

    With a third of the NFL season gone, this campaign is starting to take shape after some huge results in Week 6. Possibly the most impressive win of the weekend was the Lions’ dismantling of the Cowboys, which marked another real statement win for Detroit. Other contenders to pick up big wins were the Packers, who secured a solid win at home against Arizona, and the 49ers, who look back on track following a 36-24 divisional win over Seattle.

    Trade talks are finally starting to heat up in Week 7. In a single day, two-star wideouts were shipped to new squads, with Davante Adams reuniting with Aaron Rodgers at the New York Jets, and Amari Cooper pairing with the hottest quarterback in the NFL in Josh Allen. This is why the NFL is the greatest reality TV show in the world, and you can bet there are some very happy fantasy owners out there at the moment.

  • NFL Week 6 - Start 'Em, Sit 'Em

    Upsets were the theme of last week, from the Ravens coming back from a 10-point deficit to two blocked field goals for touchdowns, and the Broncos beating the Raiders for the first time since 2019, chaos rained down upon the NFL. Despite that, our predictions have only gotten more and more solid as the year has chugged along. This week, we are looking for trends to be slightly bucked, with lots of breakout games due to starter injuries and even more players on track to end touchdown droughts. Let’s take a look at this week’s fantasy matchups and see who you need to start, sit, and cross your fingers on this week.

  • NFL Week 6 2024 - Main Slate DFS Preview

    Week five was arguably the best of this NFL season yet, as both the Ravens-Bengals and Buccaneers-Falcons games in particular would feature as two of the best games of any season. There were also notable upset wins for the Giants and Cardinals, both conquering seven-point spreads and proving, as always, that you never know what will happen on any given Sunday. Also, the Jags won their first game of the year at home to the Colts, meaning that just five weeks in, there are no winless teams remaining. With four teams on their bye week, there are fourteen games on the slate this weekend, and again, we’ve selected five to preview for Daily Fantasy this week, beginning with a doozy between two of the best rushing quarterbacks in the NFL.

  • NFL Week 6 2024 - Betting Preview

    Week 5 of the NFL continued to develop our understanding of who each of these teams really are, separating the cream of the crop from the average. Houston got a big win over Buffalo, the Ravens somehow managed a win over Cincinnati, and Minnesota and Kansas City stayed perfect. Plus, Kirk Cousins showed us that he’s fully healthy and able to ball out at an elite level given the right circumstances, throwing for over 500 yards against Baker and the Bucs. The first firing of the year just occurred, as the Jets parted ways with Robert Saleh following a 2-3 start, which signals the critical nature of every game moving forward. With that being said, let’s get right into the Week 6 slate.

  • NFL Week 5 - Main Slate DFS Preview

    This unpredictable 2024 season rolls into week 5, with fourteen more matches to get stuck into, and 10 in the Sunday slate to look at from a DFS perspective. Four weeks in, only two undefeated teams remain, and whilst the Chiefs being 4-0 is unsurprising, the Vikings' identical start has shocked almost everyone

  • NFL Week 5 Betting Preview

    We’ve now seen four weeks of football, and the fraudulent teams have really started to show themselves. The Philadelphia Eagles got embarrassed on the road against Baker’s Bucs, and it's starting to feel like a continuation of the slump that ended last year. New Orleans have crashed back to earth a bit after their red hot start, but the Minnesota Vikings do, in fact, appear to be the real deal. Sam Darnold! Who’d have thought?

  • NFL Week 4 - Main Slate DFS Preview

    This weekend sees week four of the NFL season, which is already looking make-or-break for several teams. The Bengals, Jaguars and Titans all sit at 0-3, and will be absolutely desperate to get in the win column as their playoff hopes are already fading away. Elsewhere in the league, week 3 saw surprising losses for the 49ers and Buccaneers as well as the previously unstoppable Saints offense being held to just 12 points in a loss against Philadelphia, in what’s already proving to be an unpredictable season. Here, we look at five matchups this weekend, and give you some recommended picks for daily fantasy this weekend, as we try to make sense of it all.

    After two wild weeks of NFL action, week three saw things start to settle down. Sure, there were still surprises—like Matthew Stafford and the Rams' big comeback bid against the 49ers and Malik Willis leading the Packers to a big win over his former team, the Titans—but for the most part, the expected outcomes held. The Lions, Chiefs, and Texans continued their momentum, while the Ravens finally got into the win column, despite a shaky finish.

    After an intriguing week two filled with upsets, the NFL returns for another week of action on the gridiron.

    Does anyone know where things truly stand after two weeks of the NFL season? After some of the weird results we saw in Week 1, it seems Week 2 has over-corrected, keeping us in the dark, with powerhouses such as San Francisco, Baltimore, Dallas, and Detroit all losing to teams that were considerable underdogs.

  • NFL Fantasy Week 3 2024: Start 'Em, Sit 'Em

    Through 2 weeks of play, the 2024 NFL Season has been defined by sloppy play and unexpected outcomes. As the trends start to show themselves, fantasy matchups stop being defined by a few lucky “boom” players and leagues begin to be dominated by the savviest managers. And that’s where we come in. By combining past results with the fantasy football algorithms of Gridiron AI, let’s look at what players are must-starts and must-sits in their Week 3 matchups.

  • NFL Week 2 - Main Slate DFS Preview

    After a long seven months, NFL football finally returned last week, with sixteen games across four days of action. The weekend was bookended by last year’s Super Bowl teams picking up victories in primetime, with the Chiefs and 49ers looking to pick up where they left off last season.

    What a blockbuster Week 1 that was, with lots of fascinating storylines to dive into. First, let’s pour one out for the Browns and Giants fans who have to endure another year of Deshaun Watson and Daniel Jones. That was ugly, and the horizon is looking pretty bleak. On a more positive note, the 49ers and Chiefs picked up right where they left off, and somehow look even better than they did before. That's a scary proposition for those hoping to challenge them for the conference titles.
