🏆 DFS Edge · the value board, priced by the betting market
Stop guessing what a salary is worth.
Every player in tonight's DK pool, graded on market-expected points per $1K. 💎 green is a gift, 🪄 red is a trap.
📖 What the numbers mean — tap here
Salary is tonight's DraftKings price. xFP = expected fantasy points — how many points the player is projected to score. When it says (market), that projection is pulled from the live betting props (the sharpest read available); (season avg) means props aren't posted yet so we're using his season rate as a stand-in. The value number is xFP per $1,000 of salary — how much production you buy per dollar. Higher is better: a green player gives you more points than his price says he should, a red one is overpriced for what he'll do. Build around the greens.

🎓 Why market value beats projections ▾
DFS sites price players once a day. Sportsbooks re-price them every minute. This board converts each player's live prop prices into expected fantasy points — a projection with real money behind every decimal — then divides by his DK salary.
💎 3.0+ pts/$1K is tournament-winning value. ⚖️ 2.2–3.0 is fair freight. 🪤 under 2.2 means you're paying for a name, not a night. Vig included, so the greens run conservative.
The pool baseline recalibrates nightly — value is always measured against tonight's actual slate, not a stale constant.

🧭 The nightly routine ▾
1. Filter your weak position first — value at catcher wins more slates than another ace.
2. Tap 🎲 on any player — it loads them into the calculator above and queues them in the Shuffler pre-locked.
3. Check ceilings on the 🧨 Boom/Bust board before finalizing a tournament build.
4. Shuffle around your locks and let the cap math do the rest.
