Other factors mandate that I take these kind of risks to hit a home run (Julio/Cobb/1.2) instead of the sure double (Green/Demaryius). This competition (144 teams in 12-team leagues - DFWC) rewards the “great” team moreso than single leagues as there are overall prizes each year ($5,000 to the overall winner) and better yet, a “Dynasty King” prize of $2,000 each year for the team that has the most total points over a 3-year stretch. These prizes are in addition to $2,400 in annual league prizes (up to $2,000 of which could go to the league champion). For a $299 per team investment, a dominant team could end up making a killing over a span of several years, since the same team could conceivably win the Dynasty King prize in consecutive years since results of one year apply to three different Dynasty King years. Accordingly, it pays to shoot for the stars in this case. Playing it safe will only leave you as just one of 143 other teams missing out on the Dynasty King prize.
