Why You Should Ditch Average Fantasy Apps for ThriveFantasy

By: Braeden Long Draft Kings and FanDuel have an implemented plan that draws the average player to play in DFS games with high hopes of getting rich.  Sure, it’s more fun to watch sports when there’s money on the line, but how confident are you picking a perfect lineup to get dough? ThriveFantasy, unlike Draft Kings and FanDuel, is the perfect platform for the everyday fantasy player to place daily wagers confidently.  Thrive doesn’t have nearly as many users as their competitors as of yet, so it’s much easier to win money.  Don’t let fantasy platforms hook you in to enter massive contests with small bets ending in the rich getting richer.  The DFS industry is projected to be a multibillion-dollar

Just The Tip – Budgeting your roster

DZ - Fantasy Sports Analyst: The Wagner Wire Degenerates, Wow! Week 13 had some players rack up big time points. Mariota, Bortles, Antonio Brown, and Buck Allen were a few guys that brought their A-game last week. Let's take a look at a few players that could have thier game on the rise this week, bringing great value and impact to your DFS lineup. Darren Sproles/RB/Eagles DK-3500/FantasyHub-3300  Sproles is coming off of a very productive game where he totaled 100 scrimmage yards and a Punt Return for a TD. With DeMarco Murray rumored to be in Coach Kelly's doghouse and Matthews battling injuries, Sproles should continue to lead the Eagles in touches. Philly gets the Bills this week who are giving up the 9th most

Sweet Fantasy Week 14 DFS Value Picks

Chris Sweet - Fantasy Sports Analyst: The Wagner Wire Whew, Did everyone catch their breath yet? Week 13 was....exciting. After 3 weeks of down scoring we saw cash lines that were upwards of 180 in most contests. It's hard to predict exactly when a week like that can happen so maximizing your value is always a critical aspect of putting your lineups together. Being able to afford the most high priced assets at RB and WR is a key to cashing on a regular basis. That's why what I try to provide every week are players at each position that will out produce their price and yet give you cap relief to afford as many high priced Studs as possible. So

Sweet Fantasy – Week 13 DFS Value Picks

Chris Sweet - Senior Fantasy Sports Analyst: The Wagner Wire My loyal subjects, Your King Sweet Fantasy is back to find some values in a full Week 13 slate of 15 games. Week 12 treated me well and I went a little contrarian with my cash lineup. I took Philip Rivers as my QB coming off a terrible performance the week before. Nobody wants to back a guy that just got smoked the week before but sometimes that can work to your advantage. Rivers was less than 4% owned in all of my contests even though he had one of the best match ups of the day. So don't be afraid to use a QB this week that looked bad last

Just The Tip – Who Ya Got?

DZ - Fantasy Sports Analyst: The Wagner Wire Degenerates, Week 12 in the NFL brought more injuries, lack of production, and players stepping up their game. Chris Johnson and Tony Romo may have BROKEN your DFS/FF chances last weekend, but other players like Julius Thomas, Markus Wheaton, and Antonio Gates really stepped their game up. A new week brings a new challenge. So....Who Ya Got this week? Here are 3 players I'm rolling with for sure in Week 13! Julius Thomas/TE/Jags DK-$4000/Draftpot-6.95 Is he back? Has Julius Thomas joined Stella and got his groove back? He looks like he may have after a big performance in Week 12!?!? Thomas has found the end zone in back to back weeks. Last week he posted a stat

Sweet Fantasy – Week 10 DFS Value Picks

Wagner Wire Nation, Before we get to the value picks this week I need to get something off my chest. The war against DFS is starting to heat up. Politicians and Media are painting DFS as something it isn't and States are starting to ban dfs. The Attorney General of New York, Eric Schneiderman ordered a cease and desist to DraftKings and FanDuel. He is a tool...see my Big 3 DFS Show colleague Al Walsh's article here http://alwalshdfs.com/2015/11/eric-schneiderman-is-a-jerkoff/ The thing about these politicians is they are fine with having a State lottery and taking money from people that shouldn't be playing in the first place for a contest that is 100% luck and with very little shot of winning. DFS

Sweet Fantasy – Week 9 DFS Value Picks

Chris Sweet: Senior Fantasy Analyst – The Wagner Wire Hey Sweet Fantasy Freaks, Week 8 has come and gone and not a moment too soon as we saw too many Fantasy Studs go down for multiple weeks to the season. In our line of work we say on to the next one because DFS waits for no man and you get to use fresh bodies every week. So forgive me if this weeks values column is a little more obvious but with injuries comes cheap replacements. There are a lot of good plays this week so just do what feels natural to you, your Sweet Fantasy always does.
