NFL Week 5: Draft Kings Fantasy Lineup
Author: Elijah Cavan, CSO at CNG Analytics Inc.
Welcome back! Last week we chronicled our quantum fantasy lineup scoring 127 points! Remember, that’s one lineup- no variations on it, no multiple submissions. It was a high scoring week in the NFL last week, let’s see what this week brings. But before we get to that, check out some of our other work at CNG:
Okay, as usual let’s first look at the lineup generated by our classical algorithm:
As you can see we’re hoping the dual threat capabilities of Jalen Hurts fares us well. We’re also targeting Darren Waller to have another big game, as well as Justin Jefferson to continue to dominate in that two WR offense in Minnesota.
The quantum lineup looks like this:
A bit top heavy, as we have previously seen from the quantum lineup. We have Justin Herbert as he takes on CLE’s strong defence and we’ll rely on the engine that stirs the drink for the NO Saints, Alvin Kamara. We’re also hoping for big games from Je’Marr Chase and Deandre Hopkins.
Check in next week to see which lineup fared best!
Recap time! The Quantum algorithm had another strong week, scoring 149.3 points! Other than a disappointing start by Tee Higgins (and a weaker output at TE by Mike Gesicki) we really hit on some strong performances. The Classical algorithm scored 101.52 points. Again we were hurt by Gesicki and Higgins; and also had down weeks from key performers Justin Jefferson and Darren Waller hurt us. Check back next week and play along side us!
