No real budget busters at RB or WR this week. Should leave a lot of room for different lineups if you're so inclined.

Verdict still out, but hoping to tread water this week (need Brandon Marshall & the Bears D to show up strong to get me close to getting even, I think).T Rich, F. Jones, or Ridley (or 2 of the 3!) in almost every lineup - and only 1 or 2 Chris Johnson (out of 100+ contests) has me digging myself out of a hole in most cases. Up a grand total of $5 on 55 early contests (1pm/Sun only). AJ Green killing my primetime lineups as well. I think this Fanduel is a tough way to make a living!'VA703 said:

aj& felix killed it for me
hey who is leading the FGB's 20 teamer? http://www.fanduel.com/entry/DDNBMH
It may actually be one of the only leagues I win in since all my other leagues are 60K ones and I bombed in them.

20 points from Marshall tonight and I'll be just okay this week. Two disappointing weeks in a row makes 3 out of 4. Bah. I may win a ten buck ten teamer for $45 that I accidentally joined. I was just looking at payouts, got distracted by work, looked at my screen 15 minutes later and absentmindedly imported a Brees/Colston lineup like I do for a couple dozen $1 5050s and hit enter. If Marshall gets 14 and the Bears D gets less than 18, I win.
This could be a terrible week if Marshall does nada tonight. Gonna go look at wk8 values now.
On the other hand, and I won't mention this again, I'm doing far better at Draft Street and this week Star Street too. More complicated settings seem to reduce luck and favor the better informed, which I think should describe anyone subscribing here. I may also end up in the money for the fourth consecutive week in PFFs DraftDay freeroll.

This fanduel thing is really starting to frustrate me. I thought I was getting this thing figured out. I spent $106 this week and only won back 81.50. Ridley, Mcfadden, TRich and of all things, kickers killed me(Barth,Hartley). Other than Brees, Freeman and Luck my QB picks were average. I always use different lineups(maybe I should change this). In my lineups with Peterson, CJ or Foster I got mediocre WR scores and my ones with Cruz, Vjax I had bad RB scores. Most of my better scores were in three teamers this week, but I only won 1 of 6. After hitting on 26/33 50/50s I went an abysmal 3/10 this week. I'm tempted to just cash out with my $40 profit, but I won't.
Week 8 prices are up and as the OP suggested, loading up on Broncos and Saints isn't a bad idea. Brees is $9900 though, so is Rodgers. Wow! I've been messing with some lineups(no Thursday players) and came up with
QB-Ben vs Wash $7900
RB-McCoy vs Atl $8000
RB-CJ vs Indy $7300 (I'm sure he'll get 25 yards this week)
WR-Nelson vs Jax $7300
WR-Decker vs NO $6200
WR-Marshall vs Car $7000
TE-Witten vs NYG $5400
K-Gostkowski @Stl $5300
D-Bears $5600 vs Car SF@ARi $5400 and GB vs Jax at $5100 seem like the only other good plays at D, maybe Det vs Sea or Pitt vs Wash for 5k. Think I'll just stick with the Bears.

Condia was discussed in last week's thread so I was curious about his weekly wins/winnings and made note of where he was at before last weekend.
Last week - 8773 wins and $230,497
This week - 9336 wins and $242,300
563 wins and $11,803 for the week. I wonder how much he risked last week...

Nice week. All one lineup?Trying to figure out what do to this week. Entering & managing all of those $1-$2 50/50s is a bit of a pain in the rear. On the other hand, it kept me from losing my ### this week. Even with some clunkers in almost all of my lineups, I still went 54/85 in my $1-2 50/50s. Lost nearly all my tourneys except for one with a unique lineup that won me $20 on $2. Ended up down $15 on the whole ($231 worth of games).Decisions decisions....

5th in the FBG 20 man tourney and 18 of 28 in $5 50/50's. I'm up well over the $25 I put in but considering the time it takes to put in for ll the league I'm not sure the hourly rate is that great. I wonder the difference in level of play from a $5 50/50 to a $25 or $50 50/50.
I think I'm through with any of the tourneys over 20 or so people. the ones with 2700 people seem like a waste of time and money.

OK, my results for the week with a slew of $1-2 contests (for those who are thinking about it).54/85 on 50/50s2/25 on tourneys (this includes 0/3 on $5 tourneys - down $15 in this category)3/13 on 3s4/21 on 5s5/5 on HTH68/149 totalAll of this added up to a $15 loss on $231 wagered. Had I stuck with my $1-2 only strategy & not entered 3 of the $5 Sunday tourneys, I would have broken even. Had some lineups that won the 50/50s but lost the other formats. Also had a couple that won some 50/50s & lost others, so it does matter what contest you enter - even on the 50/50s. Mostly though, a lineup either won or it lost (i.e a better contest will not save a bad lineup). The exception to this was the HTH format, where I had 2 "bad" lineups that lost in all other formats win in HTH. Small sample size, though. Take from that what you will.The downside of this strategy is that it is tough to manage all of those lineups. It was even a pain to enter that many contests. I don't know how Condia does it. I did it mainly by importing the same lineup into a bunch of contests & then going back & separating the contests so that one lineup would have at max 5 games. Usually 1 tourney, 2 50/50s, 2 3/5/HTH). On 1 PM/Sunday only games, I went mostly 50/50s.I haven't yet tried the "homerun" strategy for tourneys only. Seems like a needle in the haystack approach, and that the way to do it is picking a steady performer with upside (think high target WR/TE, or RB without a timeshare). No Foster this week takes away the best "sure thing" going, so that should make it interesting.Good luck to all this week!'dancingbones said:

Im pretty sure he has a script that does exactly what you do. Wouldn't be too hard to throw one together, if I dont go busto I may consider making one.I do it the same way as you by hand, limiting a certain lineup to x amount of games.

Well, the first four weeks I was wildly successfull. Probably making money at a 70+ percent clip. Last few weeks I have been caught listening to advice from FBG and other pros and digging for bargains. I'm going back to my original plan and making sure I get solid bargains out of elite performers. No more dropping any Felix Jones, Ryan Williams style bull shutchamouth. That means I will not be putting Rashad jennings on any of my rosters.
Edit: That also means I will not be putting any injury risks in there either. You hear that Trent Richardson?

I agree with your theory on this, as I was burned by Felix Jones in a couple lineups this week as well. However, Felix Jones has never possessed the type of talent that would lead me to believe he could be a solid play (even @ a good value in week 7). My reasoning for this is that he has had the gig before and has not done much with his opportunities. Hence, the reason I only played him in only 1-2 entries this week...wanted him for matchup purposes only, as Carolina is bad against the run (failed this week). However, regarding Rashad Jennings, he is a guy who has never really gotten the opportunity to showcase his skills living in MJDs shadow the past couple of years. He was given the opportunity this past Sunday, and played well IMO against a decent team against the run in Oakland. He also showed that he is capable of 3 down duties, as he caught a decent number of passes on dink and dunks. This makes him much more valueable than Felix Jones for at least 2 reasons: 1. Jacksonville offense does not have much else in the passing game, and their QB situation has something to be desired. This leads to a lot of those dink and dunks, as stated above which I believe makes Rashad Jennings a good value play this week. 2. Rashad Jennings is much younger, more explosive, and does not have as much tread on the tires as Felix does. Dallas also has more options at the RB position that eats into Felix's carries, where Jacksonsville does not. I am not saying you should play him this week, but rather pointing out that his upside is much greater than Felix, and much much greater than any Arizona RB, at relatively the same value. I do not have him in all of my lineups since he is unproven (point 2 above), but I believe Jacksonville will keep him as a focal point of the offense throughout the game for the sole reason that they are a dink and dunk type offense (point 1).

The thing is that you don't have to have guys that are valued at 4600ish because you can fill your roster out with consistant stars without a lowball player. A bunch of Brandon Marshall's and Colston's are always hovering around 7k. Your top scoring WR is always valued as a second tier guy. You can fit in a whole team of stars that are consistant without gambline on a Jennings, Jones, etc. If you are playing in 50/50's which seem to be very popular you just solid scoring with no duds.I agree with your theory on this, as I was burned by Felix Jones in a couple lineups this week as well.

I have a couple of things that I take into account when putting my lineups together each week. 1. I like to compare positional value against how many points opposing defenses allow on a per game basis (fantasy points that is). From here, I like to spread out my QBs (usually 3-4 per week) based on how many fantasy points opposing defenses allow on a per game basis to date. For example, last week I used Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers, Andrew Luck, and Eli Manning. 2. I do the same thing at all other positions, but this gets a little more tricky at WR and RB as you can have committee types here for RBs and total fantasy points allowed is based on the position at a whole. For example, this week Pittsburg is going up against Washington who is giving up the most points to fantasy WRs to date this season...it makes it a little trickier to decide on how the points will be allocated (Mike Wallace? Antonio Brown?...to a lesser extent Emmanuel Sanders who does not really factor in for fanduel purposes). 3. For the big tournaments ($2 Sunday Snap), I take points 1 and 2 into account, but I draft my team based on highest upside per matchup as you need to generate a lot of points to place in these types of tournaments. So, in my example in point 2, I would select Mike Wallace in this situation. He has the greatest probability to get downfield for the homerun type plays. 4. For 50/50s, I like to go a little more on the conservative side as you only need to beat out half of the field. So in my example in point 2 I would go with Antonio Brown here. He has proven to have less variance on a week to week basis as he is a possession receiver that may not get you alot of TDs but will get you catches and yards each game. Mike Wallace is more of a boom or bust type player...great player, but harder to trust in the possessional game between the 20s. To fully answer your question, I like to usually spread 3-5 different lineups across my 50/50s based on all of the points above (excluding point 2). For the Sunday snap, etc. tournaments, I like to have different lineups...some will have the same RBs or WRs at a position, but not every position will be the exact same as the last. I also like to diversify my QBs across these tournament entries, unless I am exceptionally high on a particular QB (for example, Drew Brees last week against the Tampa Bay defense that is in the bottom 3rd of points allowed to QBs).'dancingbones said:
I agree with you here...I don't like to play these values in my 50/50s for the reason that you can fill your roster with proven guys. However, for big tournaments, salary gets tight when you want to play high upside guys (especially high upside, proven guys like Rodgers, Brees, Foster)...this eats up your salary fast, and going with a Jennings here as your 2nd RB allows you to get a safe TE and a 2-3 7000 receivers while you are at it. It's not going to be successful every week, but I do not mind playing a low valued guy if I can fill 3-4 other spots with high upside proven positional players.The thing is that you don't have to have guys that are valued at 4600ish because you can fill your roster out with consistant stars without a lowball player.

Big thanks to eaglezzz for posting the Steve Adler freeroll last week. I took 2nd for $50. 
Had a bad run for the 3 previous weeks but last week was nice. Won 11 of 13 including placing in a couple of tourneys and winning a 10 teamer and taking 2nd in a 20 teamer. One thing I like this week is Green Bay's Defense at $5100 vs Jax. Kinda like Bennett as a cheap TE vs his old team without Sean Lee.

Thanks for the insight on how you do it. The thing I liked about having many contests was using a bunch of lineups. I haven't varied a lineup from 50/50 to tourney though. I think that's what I'm gonna try this week - set up 3-5 $5 50/50s for each time slot with different "safe" lineups, then enter a bunch of $1-2 tourneys with unique lineups as well. Thinking this will let me swing out of my "comfort zone" a bit on using high upside/low floor guys for tourneys that could make a difference (think Chris Johnson/ Deshaun Jackson types). Usually I tend to avoid guys like that across multiple contests. Thinking that if I treat each tourney entry as unique, I'll consider it more of a donation with a long shot of returning anything & less of an "investment strategy". Also agree with the strategy of avoiding the "long shot" type of guy - though I agree that Jennings is a safer "long shot" than most. Aren't the Packers hit with a string of injuries on the defensive side of the ball?

No kidding...5 Broncos! I was hesitant to use McGahee in lineups where I was using Peyton & Decker/DT. I didn't use Decker & DT in the same lineup either, although I wouldn't be surprised if both had really good days.

wk 1 - Mike Williams - 2-12-1. Clark 1-33-0. VJax 4-47-0.
wk 2 - Hard to say who the WR2 is here. For the purposes of this conversation I'll say Moore who had 2-30. If you feel like Graham is the better fit then 7-71-1 was a good out come. Sporles also had 13-128-0. WR1 Colsten 3-49-0.
wk 3 - Barden - 9-138-0. TE Bennet racked up 6-73-1. Cruz 6-42
wk 4 - White - 8-169-2. TE Gonzo had 5-51. Jones 1-30.
wk 5 - Tate - 3-31-1. TE Miller 3-59. Rice 5-67-0.
wk 7 - Austin - 5-97-1. TE Witten 6-44. Bryant 2-14.

WR2 - 4.8 - 98 - .83 or 19.6 ppr ppg
TE1 - 4.7 - 55.2 - .33 or 12.2 ppr ppg
Not sure if you would consider Hester the WR2 in Chicago. But he and Davis might be sneaky starts. I'm not going to say to pass on Marshall this week as Cutler is locked onto him, but keep this trend in mind when looking at teams with multiple receiving options and a QB that doesn't have eyes for one guy.

Glad you cashed in on some cash. Always happy to help out the forum in anyway I can. If I can't win on FD I would be glad to see others win here on FBG's. Week 8 is going to be the week though, right?Big thanks to eaglezzz for posting the Steve Adler freeroll last week. I took 2nd for $50.
Like the lineup but would go for a different kicker as you would be cheering for the other 4 Broncos to get TD's and not settle for FG's. After all 6 extra points is only 6 points. I am almost tempted to go against the grain on the Broncos because so many people will have them rostered. I do like the idea of only having McGahee as well and hoping the Broncos try to slow down the Saints. But then Peyton/Decker/DT seems too good so hard to pass that up.

I doubt that gets filled fast enough. 55k isn't as popular and you have about 18 hours to fill. I bet you only get 6 people.
There are other sites not just FanDuel ... the scary thing is I see Condia on those also. I mainly stick with the freerolls and a few $1/$2 games and I'm up over $400 all with house money. That said ... the last few weeks have been horrific both times thinking I was in the money early ... I picked Chris Johnson put paired him with a bust in the late game. I picked Josh Gordon the week before ... and my QB gets hurt in the late game.
So this week ... how many Broncos/Saints will be key. Any other shootout games? One thing I noticed is I've almost built a best ball lineup for budget. It this point no real reason to look for bargains ... just try to pick who is going to bust out and avoid those who will bust.

Man, I just don't feel comfortable in 55k this week but I'll throw a team out in order to get this league official.

I think im going to dive into one high stakes games this week. Im up like $1300 on my initial deposit, and i might be overestimating my game.. But I’ve been killing smaller $ h2h's for a few weeks and I want the rush of a $535 game. Im still on the fence.. but if I jump, i'll post the match-up here for all my FBG's to follow along and live through my degenerateness.

Carver, I was in your shoes and stepped up in week 5. I have lost 485 bucks since. I recommend continuing what your doing but bump up the games played by 10. It's demoralizing going from shark to guppie against people that do this for a living.
Same here

Conventional wisdom in this thread has been to stay away from the Thursday games. I've been watching them and they are sloppy most weeks, but I had a hard time staying away from Harvin or Peterson with the Vikings at home vs. Tampa. Hope this week is an exception. I also had a hard time getting a team I like for $55,000 this week.
12 in so far... almost there... join in
