has published its DraftKings DFS cheat sheet for the NFL Sunday main slate, giving fantasy players a fresh guide to building lineups under the salary cap. The piece is built around one idea: finding the best mix of value picks in each roster slot and pairing them with the right matchups.
That is why the keyword is being searched now. For anyone setting a lineup this week, the question is not simply which player projects for the most points. It is which player gives the most production for each dollar spent, and that is how says it evaluates DraftKings options every week.
The method matters because it changes how a roster is built. defines value by the number of DraftKings points a player can be expected to produce for every dollar invested, which means a player with a higher raw projection can still be a worse lineup decision if his salary is too high. A lower-priced option can be the better play even if he is not expected to score more than a pricier teammate.
That is the logic behind the cheat sheet’s tiers. Great value players sit in the 90th percentile of projected value picks for the week. Good plays are in the 75th percentile or better. Average plays fall from the 25th to the 74th percentiles. Shaky plays land in the 10th to 24th percentiles, while poor picks are in single-digit percentiles. also limits the list to players projected for at least 4 points, and the salaries shown are drawn from DraftKings’ main slate using projections at the time of publication.
The missing piece is also the most important one for readers hoping for a quick shortcut: the methodology does not include specific player names or recommendations in the text provided. It is a framework, not a finished lineup. That leaves the next step to the player building the roster on Sunday, who must use the value tiers, the matchup guidance and the salary cap together to decide where the savings are worth taking and where they are not.
In other words, the cheat sheet does not promise certainty. It gives DraftKings players a way to sort through the Sunday main slate with discipline, and that is usually the edge that matters most when the clock is running down before lineup lock.
