DraftKings Classic · Sunday Main · Week 4

Salary froze.
Information didn’t.

A point-in-time decision desk built around opportunity change, expected-versus-actual regression, and the news that arrived after DraftKings priced the slate.

LIVE RESEARCH BOARD — check the update timestamp before using. Field attention is a proxy, not projected ownership. Current lineup exclusions are disclosed in the data manifest.

How to use Sports Edge

Start with freshness, choose a construction, then confirm every player before lock. The board is a decision tool—not an automatic entry button.

01

Verify the slate

Confirm the week and decision-snapshot time at the top. If the timestamp is stale, wait for the next refresh.

02

Choose your build

Balanced favors median strength. Leverage accepts more variance. Staleness emphasizes late information.

03

Read the Edge Tape

Mispricing measures our disagreement with salary. Freshness tracks post-price information. Leverage weighs upside against field attention.

04

Work the player board

Filter by position, search a player or team, and switch the ranking lens. Tap column headers for a direct sort.

05

Run the lock check

Confirm DK availability, injury status, weather, and excluded games. Never upload a draft without a final inactive check.

Recommended flow: snapshot → lineup tab → Edge Tape → player pivots → weather/status → final DK confirmation.

02 / THE EDGE TAPE

Where the slate moved

These are not simply the highest projections. They are the players whose price, opportunity, and field treatment create the strongest model disagreement.

03 / CONSTRUCTIONS

Three tournament drafts

Each lineup is salary-valid, uses a QB stack, stays below the cap, and shares no more than six players with the other builds. Drafts—not upload instructions.

04 / PLAYER BOARD

Mispricing ≠ leverage

Sort and filter the complete viable pool. A red score marks pricing disagreement; green tracks post-price information change.

Weather that can matter

National Weather Service hourly forecasts nearest kickoff. Retractable-roof status must still be confirmed.

06 / MODEL RECEIPT

What V1.1 actually knows

Transparent enough to backtest. Conservative enough not to pretend we have data we do not.
