Geico 500: Daily Fantasy NASCAR DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks

The NASCAR haulers have arrived in Talladega, Alabama for another exciting weekend of Superspeedway racing.

Talladega is a 2.66 mile Tri Oval with 33° banking in corners. It is a restrictor plate race where cars will reach speeds in excess of 200+ MPH. The "big one" is always right around the corner as we see pack racing throughout the race with multiple cars within inches of each other. When a wreck does happen it will affect multiple cars ending many drivers hopes of a win or even finishing.

The pricing on DraftKings is very tight at the top as it is really anyone's race to win. It will come down to which teams and drivers work best together in the draft during the race and avoid being wrecked. A GPP strategy worth implementing this week is stacking multiple drivers from one team as they are likely to finish together. This happened at Daytona with the Joe Gibbs team winning and taking three of the Top 5 finishing positions and is likely to happen again this week.

If you have any questions leading up to the race be sure to join the conversation in the chat below.

 

Daily Fantasy NASCAR: DraftKings DFS  Lineup Picks

Joe Gibbs Racing Team
(Carl Edwards-$10,100,  Denny Hamlin-$10,000,  Matt Kenseth-$9,100,  Kyle Busch-$9,200)

When constructing GPP lineups this week it is very possible to get all four JGR drivers in one lineup with the value at the bottom of the board. Honestly, why would you not consider it? Three out four of them finished inside the Top 5 at Daytona with Hamlin winning and this team has won four straight races coming into this one. They have formed the super team that consistently sees multiple drivers contending for the win each week on all types of tracks. Only Matt Kenseth is without a win in 2016 but it won't be long as he has shown tremendous speed all season. If you want to go a little more conservative taking two or three of them with some mid tier options will keep you from having to go sub $6K with two guys.

 

Dale Earnhardt Jr. - $10,300

It would take balls this week to fade Dale Earnhardt Jr. who is one of the best Superspeedway racers...ever. He has picked up six wins here in his career(most of any track) including last Spring's race and he followed it up with a runner up here during the Chase for the Sprint Cup. He will be back in "Amelia" this week and when a driver is in love with a car, you go with it. Look for him and Jimmie Johnson to team up and contend for the win this week.

Trevor Bayne - $6,500

To get multiple top tier drivers in this week you are going to need multiple value plays in your lineup. Bayne makes a great choice in the mid $6K range this week. He hasn't had much success here with just one career Top 10 but he is displaying Top 10 speed this week. He was 5th fastest in the opening practice and had the 4th fastest 10 lap average and when cars went to single car runs in final practice he was 8th fastest. He is a great choice in any format and will gain a ton of value if he qualifies outside the Top 20.

Landon Cassill - $5,800

Another low end value this week at Talladega. In the last five years(10 races) he has one Top 5 finish and an average finish of 25.8 which is an average place differential of +10. He looks to have a Top 20 car this week so hopefully his poor qualifying efforts continue.
