Chicago Bears 2019 Draft Review

Not having a pick until the third round of the draft can change the way a fan views that particular draft. That’s been the case for most Bears fans as they were expecting to wait until pick number 87 before they made their first selection. Instead, fans only had to wait until pick 73 because the Bears decided to trade up to get their guy. Nothing new for GM Ryan Pace, but how should we value this year’s picks?

Let’s take a look at some players to target for tonight’s 13-game slate.

MLB DFS: Locks and Stacks 4/16/19

Well, hope you all had a great Jackie Robinson Day and were able to make some money last night. I hope you played Christian Yelich. I also hope you didn’t play either of the pitchers I mentioned. That might be the last time I roster Kikuchi and who knows about Cahill. Either way, the best part about MLB DFS is we get to bounce-back the next day. So, that’s exactly what we’ll do. Let’s take a look at what’s in store for tonight’s huge 13-game slate.

MLB DFS: Players To Target 4/15/19

Going with a different strategy today, I’ll be spending down in most lineups at both starting pitcher spots on DraftKings tonight. Too many of the good high priced options have difficult matchups and this will help to avoid an implosion. If you’re playing on a site like Fanduel, it might make more sense to just go ahead and spend up for a guy like Trevor Bauer. With that said, let’s take a look at some of the players to target for tonight’s games that could potentially bring home the bacon.

MLB DFS – Players to Target 4/2/19

The big boys are on the bump. To name a few, Scherzer, Verlander, Sale, and Snell will all be on the hill today. Honestly, this is the kind of day you want to get exposure to a ton of pitching in tournaments. There are so many good ones on the board and it stresses me out way less than yesterday. Running the same exact lineup and switching the pitcher might be a good strategy today. Let’s take a look at some options for tonight’s 10-game main slate.
