INSIGHT

Rookie Value Is All About Cost And Role

  • Rookies' value depends heavily on draft cost and early-season role rather than a blanket 'rookies always break out' mantra.
  • Taking expensive rookies requires them to deliver early or you pay a huge opportunity cost versus veteran alternatives.
ADVICE

Swing For Late-Round Rookie Upside

  • In best ball, target late-round rookie swings where opportunity cost is low and ceilings beat dusty veterans.
  • Avoid spending early-round picks on rookies unless they have a clear early role you trust.
ADVICE

Don't Confuse Hot Streaks With Perfection

  • Recognize variance when you're running hot in DFS cash; don't over-attribute outcomes to skill.
  • Continue using process-driven edges like improved projections rather than assuming permanent superiority.
