DraftKings & FanDuel NFL DFS Week 1 Cash and Tournament Strategy & Picks

It can be difficult to narrow down your player pool for large-field tournaments on DraftKings and FanDuel. You can make a case for anyone with a half-decent projection. Or what about a backup with a path to relevancy if things go just right? There are hundreds of thousands of entries in these tournaments. We’re all underdogs, and our best path to the top is finding a gem nobody else can find. So again, it can be difficult to narrow down your player pool. But it’s worth trying.

Here, we’ll go game-by-game to look at the most intriguing plays. We’ll leave players out completely if they don’t project well and don’t have a clear path to a slate-breaking outcome. The rest, we’ll break into two categories: targets and mass multi-entry (MME) plays.

Targets are players to consider if playing 20 or fewer lineups. MME plays are players you should try to include in your player pool if you’re going to play 150 lineups in a large-field tournament.

At the bottom of this article, you'll find cash game locks and players to consider for both DraftKings and FanDuel.
