There are also a lot of cheap players who should see a price increase soon, so we talk about who to go after while they're still cheap. If you're new to DFS and want to try out a...

Plus, we consider some early-season struggles -- from Otto Porter to Myles Turner -- and try to determine just how concerned we s...
