$1,000,000 Milly Maker Ownership

Week 17 Ownership
D Maye 11.12%
C Brown 20.93%
R Stevenson 4.37%
M Wilson 7.23%
S Diggs 26.02%
P Washington 11.92%
T Mcbride 34.46%
M Mayer 19.07%
Giants DST 8.28%
Total 143.40%

 

This Lineup wasn’t as contrarian as we’ve seen most of the season. This lineup was very much a cash like build with about 3 pivots. Stevenson, Wilson, & Washington were all pivots off of the chalk and smashed at low ownership.

Top Leverage Plays

Stevenson at 4%

Stevenson would’ve been mega chalk if Henderson didn’t play, but Henderson did play, and because of it the field slept on Stevenson who still smashed on low volume.

Washington at 11%

2nd straight 10 target game for Parker Washington with back to back tough CB1 match ups for Brian Thomas Jr. and Meyers. Washington will be a guy you won’t want to ignore in Lawrence stacks at low ownership.

Wilson at 7%

MHJ is hardly playing and Wilson remains the beneficiary of it with another 10+ target game at low ownership.

Milly Maker Pricing & Value

Week 17 Pricing FPTS per Dollar
D Maye $6,800 4.76X
C Brown $7,400 4.33X
R Stevenson $5,900 4.61X
M Wilson $6,400 3.10X
S Diggs $5,800 4.32X
P Washington $4,800 4.58X
T Mcbride $7,500 3.14X
M Mayer $2,500 7.16X
Giants DST $2,900 6.20X
Total $50,000 4.36X

 

This was a very well balanced lineup from a pricing standpoint due to the double tight end build of $2500 Mayer in the Flex who hit 7X his salary. With the Giants D also hitting 6X their salary at $2900, and Washington being the 4K player to 4.5X his salary, that brought all the value needed for the rest of the lineup to come together with Maye + 2, Mcbride, Wilson, Chase Brown, etc.

Ceiling

Week 17 brought another low score that was identical to week 16. After 17 weeks of the 2025 NFL Season, the average score to win the Milly Maker sits at 236. We’ll see if week 18 is like the week 18 of the 2024 NFL Season and brings the score back up closer to the average of 236.
