Dominate like a pro from day one.
High Risk, High Reward
Load up on superstars and fill the rest with budget players
Allocate most of your salary cap to 2-3 elite players at premium positions (QB, RB, WR1). Fill remaining slots with minimum-salary players to stay under the cap.
Best in large-field tournaments where you need elite upside. High risk, high reward - if your stars hit, you have league-winning potential.
Patrick Mahomes ($9,500) + Christian McCaffrey ($9,000) + $1,500 players to fill out the roster
Low Risk, Steady Returns
Play the most popular, highly-owned players in optimal matchups
Select players with the highest projected ownership - typically stars in great matchups or value plays everyone is targeting. You'll have a similar lineup to many opponents.
Ideal for cash games (50/50s, double-ups) where you just need to beat half the field. In tournaments, chalk can work if you combine it with a contrarian captain or unique stack.
High-owned QB in a dome game + popular RB facing worst run defense + chalk WR with backup CB coverage
Very High Risk, Tournament-Winning Upside
Fade the field with lower-owned players in unique game stacks
Intentionally avoid high-owned players and target overlooked value. Stack correlated players from unpopular games. If your contrarian picks hit, you'll have massive leverage over the field.
Best in large-field GPPs where differentiation is key. You need your low-owned plays to actually perform - if they bust, you're done. But if they boom, you can dominate.
Low-owned QB from Monday Night Football + his WR1 + opposing team's RB in a projected shootout nobody is targeting
Medium Risk, Consistent Production
Build a balanced roster with mid-tier players across all positions
Avoid the highest and lowest priced players. Target the $6,000-$7,500 range where you find value and safety. Creates a well-rounded team without extreme risk.
Great for beginners or when you want exposure to multiple games without concentrating risk. Works well in smaller-field tournaments where you need solid, consistent production.
QB ($7,200) + RB1 ($6,800) + RB2 ($6,500) + WR1 ($6,900) + WR2 ($6,300) + balanced fills
