Tips From Winners: Our Key Takeaways from Last Season’s Winning Lineups
While we have historically given breakdowns on a week-by-week basis, to prep for the upcoming 2022-23 NFL season, we thought we would share some insights from what we learned from last seasons winners.
Knowing that our subscribers are likely prepping for the 2022 NFL regular season, we are going to focus on the data we have from the 2021 regular season. If you don’t care about our takeaways, find every winning DraftKings Millionaire lineup for the 2021 season below these takes.
If You Don’t See the DraftKings Fire Symbol, You Don’t Have a Shot
The DraftKings fire symbol indicates your player finished at 4x value or better for the week. Winning DraftKings Millionaire lineups hit the ‘fire’ mark on 79.6% of their picks.
While we expected this number to be high, it’s surprisingly high. Keep in mind, this does not account for players that go well above 4x, and includes week 15, which was historically bad (the winning lineup would struggle to finish in the money any other week). There are plays on this list that are 10x+, but those owners are stacking that value with another 7 guys that reach 4x value.
Pay Up at the Tight End Position
For this one we looked specifically at the winning lineups from the second-half of the 2021 regular season. There is exactly one lineup in that group that cashed with a tight end priced under $4,000, and almost every winning lineup used Marc Andrews, Rob Gronkowski, or George Kittle.
Pay Down on Defense
There were only three lineups that won the Millionaire starting a defense priced at $3,500 or higher for the entire season. While you typically don’t want to tank the position (keep in mind we need at least 4x value), paying up at defense rarely pays off if you want to take down a DK Millionaire.
Stack, Stack, and Counter-Stack
It should come as no surprise that stacking remains key to winning a DraftKings Millionaire. All 18 winners stacked a QB with at least 1 teammate, and 8 stacked with at least 2.
Additionally, 8 out of the 18 regular season Millionaire lineups also started an opposing receiver, tight end, or pass-catching running back. Basically pick a game where you want to bet the over, and stack like crazy.
How much stacking is too much? The highest scoring lineup from last season stacked Joe Burrow with Joe Mixon, Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and opposing tight end Marc Andrews. That group racked up an insane 268.5 points (5.4x) value for the week.
Ownership Percentage Matters
Nearly 65% of the players in winning DraftKings Millionaire lineups had an owership under 10%. Beyond that, 88% of the players had an ownership level under 20%. If you want to take home the $1 million top prize, you’re going to have to think outside of the box.
This is why playing more than one lineup is also a near-must. Only 4 of the 18 regular season winners were single-entry players.
