ANECDOTE

High-Volume Millie Run

  • JJ documented drafting 260+ DraftKings teams and max-entering the Millie with 150 teams this season. He advanced 47 of 150 and reached the Millie final, finishing 40th for $20,000.
ADVICE

Stack Conference Offenses

  • Stack offensives and build correlated lineups across teams to capture weekly and season-long upside. Prioritize at least one conference stack per roster and supplement with cross-conference mini-stacks.
ADVICE

Don't Abandon Stacking For Safety

  • Draft stacks for both weekly ceilings and season-long upside; don't ignore stacking even if you worry about making playoffs. Stacks increase the chance multiple roster pieces beat ADP across many weeks.
