DraftKings Players To Watch: Big Weekend For Winter?

Draft Kings Chicago

Orlando City SC take on the Chicago Fire this Saturday and we have put together a list of impact players from the Lions who are worthy of consideration for your DraftKings lineup over the weekend.

Haven’t tried DraftKings? It’s simple. Each player is given a fictitious $50,000 to spend on assembling his or her roster. Players’ salaries are determined by their on-field performance, FPPG, or Fantasy Points Per Game. Each roster consists of two forwards, two midfielders, two defenders, a keeper, and one flex spot (any field player).

Here are some Orlando City players to watch against the Fire this Saturday:

Adrian Winter – MID: 7.3 FPPG, $5,800 - Winter is coming off of his best performance as a Lion. The Swiss midfielder was a force on offense scoring two strong goals. At an affordable cost, Winter is a good selection for your fantasy roster as he looks to keep his hot streak going.


Rafael Ramos – DEF: 1.9 FPPG, $4,200 - Ramos is looking to have a big game this weekend. He will be aiming to stop Chicago forward David Accam from making an impact. This is the perfect time to pick up Ramos for your roster.


Tally Hall – GK: 6.4 FPPG, $4,100 - Hall has been in great form as of late. If the back line is able to control the likes of David Accam and Kennedy Igboananike, Hall is very capable of putting up a clean sheet. For $4,100 it is a no brainer to add Hall to your lineup this weekend.

Around the League:


Pa-Modou Kah – DEF: 13.6 FPPG, $4,200 - The Norwegian footballer has played sparingly for Vancouver so far this season. However-when he is on the pitch, he has been one of the most productive players in the league. A good pickup at a reasonable price.


Clint Dempsey – FWD: 12.9 FPPG, $10,200 - Dempsey has only scored one goal since May for Seattle. Even though the US International is a little on the pricey side, he is due for a really big game. He could be a wise investment for you on the weekend.
