This article focuses primarily on 3-Man snake draft strategy. Reason being is that you can easily apply this information to H2H as well as widen up to 4-Man contests, which is the average size of the daily GPPs. I’m going to break down what I saw in 20-30 drafts today and how we can exploit our opponents using our tools over on DFS Army.
Sorry for the 4-week break. Our VIPs got the notes but traveling and writing can be a bit too time-consuming.
Quick Trends (50 game sample)
*Cooks and Green both have a value of 4
- 100% Chalk: Adams, Barkley, Gordon, Gurley, Hunt, Jones, Kamara, Mahomes, and Thomas
- 60% solid chalk this week, but I’m surprised it’s not higher.
- This is a great example of how the base projects affect draft order. Barkley is currently of this writing projected higher than Gurley which resulted in some people drafting Barkley over Gurley.
- The second example is Julio Jones. 1 TD in 10 weeks? Show me it’s not a fluke. He went from ADP of 15 or not drafted at all the last few weeks to 6. I’m ok skipping that chalk and pulling up Devante Adams at home, with angry Rodgers.

Draft Projections & Rankings
The default draft rankings by position in Draft for their top positions. While most of these would be solid plays, they are vastly different than our projections and grades we developed in-house at DFS Army where to take into account many different metrics that these do not. Combining our brand new Starting Lineups Page, Domination Station, Articles, and research station, you can quickly see where some players in absolute smash spots should be drafted higher than what’s on this list.

Strategy
- If you’re picking 2nd or 3rd, RB-RB was the most followed strategy. There are plenty of options to pick at in the WR/TE realm this week, whereas there is a drop off in RB
- Don’t be afraid of Fitzmagic if you’re getting the third QB off the board. It’s not like they’re going to run the ball. He has to throw it a bajillion times.
