Finally, Week 1 of the 2017 NFL season! This year we will only publish our patented “Weighted Consensus Rankings” that includes consensus rankings from 20 DFS experts and Projected Ownership Percentages.
In this series, we will publish a consensus of NLF DFS expert’s recommendations that take into account each expert’s current DailyOverlay score to generate a Weighted Consensus ranking for each position. To calculate the Weighted Rank Score, each expert’s DailyOverlay score is weighted on a sliding scale from 1 to 5 with the top expert in the current standings being weighted with a five while the last place expert is weighted with a one. We also list the projected Ownership Percentages for Cash and GPP leagues to help you identify some players that could be good low-owned contrarian plays. We will include all players that have a Rank Score of at least 6.0.
This article is part of our premium content, so be sure to sign up to get this great snapshot of the entire DFS NFL communities thoughts for the week. This week I have exposed the QB section so that everyone can get a glimpse of the content and format.
