NFL DFS
There is so much weird value in terms of DFS for Sunday. Just at running back alone you can look at the Raider backs, or Crowell and Nick Chubb is still too cheap. Everyone is clearly going to try and jam in Gurley, so I assume that most people will go with a Gurley/Value Back strategy. I on the other hand kind of want to play James Conner or some other mid-range RB.

The Raiders have even more value at the WR position where someone has to catch the ball. If only we could somehow get every Ram and Packer into one lineup we should be good to go. I am curious to see if anyone pays up at WR this week. I really want to stack the Steelers, but that would mean limiting ownership on the GB/LAR Game.

NBA DFS
James Harden is out for the next two games at least and that leaves some opportunity. Chris Paul and Eric Gordon are priced up, but their role and usage should increase as well. I will have some of both of them. My favorite play on the Rockets is Gerald Green. Green will now be locked into around 20-25 minutes and he is only 3.7K on FD and 3.9K on DK. Someone has to increase their usage with the second unit and it will be Green.

On Draft Kings the Bulls players are still too cheap for their role. Bobby Portis is out and Jabari Parker is a lock to increase his minutes. You can talk me into any and all Bulls on DK and some on FD. Maybe I am crazy, but I like the idea of a Clippers/Rockets game stack.
