Salaries are still fairly soft, some of the differential players have gone up though making it a bit harder close out your roster. Already have 4 rosters made up I'm pretty confident about. Unfortunately with soccer you need to be super in tune game day with rosters to make quick swaps.

My site is up and running, still working on getting all the content on and finished. Any suggestions are welcome.

whoscored.com is a good site for game previews, predictions and probable starting lineups.

Is there a way to browse draft kings without having to login/create an account? I want to see how things work first before I deposit. And if I create an account will it still honor the referral link and match my bonus when I eventually end up doing so?

I deposited $100 through your link.

For soccer are their games that take you through the whole weekend? Why is the 12:30EST game offered but not the 7:45 game on Saturday?

There was.last weekend, this weekend was sat only slate. Might be because of time difference? Also with it being important to change rosters before gsme time its better to be able to switch all your players instead of being locked up for a couple spots due to one early game. I think they skip the early game and monday game every week. Skipped sunday because only one game so they can get payouts out quickly so players can play nfl and not have money tied up.

You can swap players on a later scheduled games up to the starting time of that game. For instance, for the 12:30 scheduled arsenal - totenham game, you will be able to swap players from that game from your active roster right upto 12:30. There is no need to worry about missing a starting player, as you can look at the starting lineup and make last minute changes.

I'm giving this a go. Going to do very very small stakes til I get the hang of it and see how much different it is from the EPL's FPL. Here is my lineup for Saturday (with a $200 to spare so any $200 upgrade suggestions I'm in)

GK Julian Speroni 5.2 swap out
D José Fonte 4.1 swap out
D L. Koscielny 4.9 swap out
M Ángel Di María 20.0 swap out
M Cesc Fàbregas 12.5 swap out
F Radamel Falcao 5.9 swap out
F Graziano Pelle 13.2 swap out
FLEX Aaron Ramsey 9.9 swap out

Ehhh I tend to.avoid cbs unless you are going for a super offensive stack.and praying for shutout pts.

Cbs in essence are super high risk and if you dont bink a goal or get a shutout you get no pts and you should only pick ones that are 2k. Fullbacks offer more consistent value due to possible assists, cross points, and drawing fouls. I have one lineup with mangala and kosc but my offensive is super duper stacked with di maria costa aguero tadic.

The curious case of wilfried bony, stats wise he's actually in my top 10 for my predictive model, but he just hasn't produced at all. I've had him in my lineups almost every week and it's been pretty frustrating. I thought he was banned due to red, but I guess 2 yellow red is no ban?

I basically ignore goals and assists scored and try to guess average conversion rates to figure out expect point totals on a per 90 minute avg, so Bony is actually ranked above costa slightly. My model is really rough, and definitely really small sample size, but think about that for a second heh.

I have no idea who to slot in if I'm playing fullbacks instead of Cbs though

clichy might not be a starter. I am sure there are better valued strikers than charlie austin and QPR aren't expected to win or score against Southampton.
I guess di maria is a must pick of this weekend. It will be hard to pick a contrary team without him.
