NFL Single-Lineup Simulator

It allows you to manually build your lineups and then test them against the competition using the same advanced algorithms that power our full NFL DFS Sims. This helps you determine if your hand-built lineup is truly delivering a positive ROI, or if you might be unintentionally creating -EV lineups.

The Single-Lineup Simulator goes beyond just evaluating lineup ROI. It also provides insights into your lineup’s chances of winning, finishing in the top 10%, and cashing in contests. It’s an essential addition to your hand-building strategy, enabling you to refine and improve your results in single-entry NFL DFS contests.
