This article is a data-driven deep dive on strategic decision-making and roster construction for DFS cash games and tournaments. It relies heavily upon FantasyLabs’ extensive suite of analytical DFS tools, as well as advanced metrics and film study. First, I walk through narrowing down the player pool at each position. Then, I lay out how to choose the highest-floor lineup combinations for cash games. Finally, I go game-by-game to present the biggest edges (stacks, pivots, leverage opportunities, etc.) in each.

Quarterback (Cash)
- Russell Wilson, Seahawks ($7,300 DK, $8,700 FD) vs. DAL
I know a lot of people would rather save some money and roll with Kyler Murray, but I have to go with Russell Wilson here. Wilson is posting unsustainable passing numbers (9.7 yards per attempt, 9/1 TD/INT ratio), while Murray is doing the same on the ground (79.5 yards, 1.5 TDs per game), but it comes down to Murray’s passing efficiency for me: He averaged 6.9 yards per attempt last season and is down to 6.6 this year, and he has thrown only 22 passing TDs in 18 career games.
