Week 2 Preseason-

Not much changes in Week 2 of the Preseason as for the most part, starters are not going to be playing more than necessary, and the guys that you really want to target are the players in positional battles or guys that the team is looking at to make the team. However, it really is somewhat unpredictable as we are still dealing with players who may only play the game for a quarter or a half and while we think we know how games are going to go, but the reality is that we are all just latching on to stories and narratives with the excitement of the NFL season just around the corner driving us. Often the winner can be based on a big play or even the coin toss as far as which starters will get the ball first.

This can be incredibly random at times, but we are doing our best to identify talented players, who are having strong camps, who should see a lot of playing time this week. There is an edge with preseason as far too often you will see opponents take a significant amount of starters in these contests or even players that are not playing.

We will be focusing on the main slate this week given the contest sizes being so small of the early slate.
