Introduction
Monkey Knife Fight is one of the fastest growing daily fantasy sites and offers a unique product that is a lot of fun. There are no salary caps and you do not have to compete against DFS pros. Instead, you simply find the combination of player props you are most confident in and pick more or less . Since each combination (two or more players) are playing in the same game, we can use correlation to our advantage. For example, if we know that one starting quarterback throws for more yards than projected, the opposing quarterback is more likely to throw for more yards also.
In this weekly article, we will count down the five best props of the week.
Week 1 Note
The deeper we get into the season, the more picking prop winners becomes a game of grinding the data. In Week 1, the process is much different. Sure, we can look back at 2020 stats to get some baselines to work off of. However, teams change too much every season to take too much from past numbers. Instead, Week 1 is when we need to read the tea leaves about expected player usage and relative team strengths. For those who have been paying close attention to all of the reports coming out of training camp, there can be an informational edge early in the season. We hope to exploit that advantage in Week 1.
