Building winning GPP lineups, by definition, is tough. There are, however, some key things to look for when filling out your roster. First and foremost is ceiling, we want the players with potential to score the most points. Next is leverage, we want the players that fall through the cracks. Finally, we have to build a lineup that tells a winning story through game script and stacking.
For a deeper dive into GPP strategy, check out the Tournament Strategy episode that Borg and Betz put out last season, and make sure to stay locked into the DFS and Betting Podcast.
A final note before diving into the picks. Don’t ignore the Cash Picks article put out by Matt Savoca. His article pairs perfectly with my GPP picks article, as it’s typically a good idea to mix in some value plays, especially if they fit the GPP-winning story you write.
Quarterbacks
Jordan Love vs. ARI – $8,500
Arizona heads to Green Bay ranked 23rd in schedule-adjusted fantasy points allowed to quarterbacks and, as noted in Borg’s Pace of Play article, they are allowing the third-highest opponent completion rate (72.5%) and fourth-highest yards per attempt (7.7). That happens to be the same yards per attempt rate Love is averaging this year to go along with a 7.0% TD rate, both higher than he averaged last season. It all sets up for a potentially huge outing from Love in a game where the Packers carry the fourth-highest team implied total (26.8) on the slate in a game with a 4.0 Game Pace Score (GPS).
