On twitter it said they didn't cancel the freeroll, it's just been hidden until the site is fixed. so Maybe that's where your early game tournaments are?

The late games are cancelled, all early games are still going. If you do not cash, you are elible for a refund. DK is taking a huge hit paying out all games and refunding losing teams.

Ah. Thanks.

[armyatc22]

Entered $36 on FD in the 1pm only leagues and cashing out $166 I seem to do well on these and Mon-Thurs games

[CasperMcLovin]

Luckily had Evans, Marshall, and Benjamin as receivers. RB's are Steven Jackson and Vereen and I have Brady so hopefully Brady can get the ball to Vereen and I should cash a little.

I just did the same thing and they sent this reply

Hi addicted36,

We apologize for the delay and site issues experienced today. Due to an enormous amount of volume, please expect a delayed response time, as we are working to get to all inquires.

At this time, all 4pm NFL contests have been canceled due to this downtime on the site. All entry fees will be refunded, and you will not be charged for these contests. These refunds for contest that began at 4 PM will be refunded by tonight.

For all other contests that began at 1 PM today, refunds will be issued by Wednesday morning. We will refund any lineup that did not place in a prize paying position at the conclusion of the the contest.

As a result of these ongoing issues, there is no further action that can be taken at this time regarding the NFL Contests from the 1 PM start time today. All other contests (including NBA, NHL, NFL Primetime) will run as normal. Lineups may take several minutes to show in your account.

Again, we sincerely apologize for the delays today, and we are doing our very best to resolve this issue.

Best,

Ethan L

So I can't lose any money and can just cash? Seems like I didn't play enough today hahah

[eaglescubs555]

Yeah, I am doing great in mine so far. Have a few lineups potentially coming top 1000 in the millionaire.

[GoldStandard000]

Guy behind me has Gronk, and guy in front of me has a GB offense stack. I still have Vinatieri though. I need a miracle if I'm going to place 3rd. Weeks like this are very annoying!

I wish

[eaglescubs555]

YES!!!!!! That Brady -- Gronk TD was huge for me.

[eaglescubs555]

I am hearing they won't be refunding people now. They tweeted this earlier:

"If you had an issue related to today's site outage you must contact support@draftkings.com by the end of the 1st half of the NE v IND game."


Hmmmmm.... time to switch to FanDuel I guess.

Yeah I'm probably switching to FanDuel after I withdraw all of my money tomorrow night.

[huskerman47]

Any one get refunds yet?

[armyatc22]

Wow not a lot of talk this week....

[TexAggie_2014]

I dont know if i should start cutler or mcCown

[RotoHester]

Gambool

McCown
D. Murray
D. Robinson
M. Colston
AJ Green
J. Gordon
Z Ertz
A. Blue
Falcons

[bkovach06]

Yeah, unusual especially with CFB Saturday

To answer your question, Gordon will be heavily owned. On thursday night tournament rosters he was 18%

I expect him to be well into the 20's, I know he has been gone 10 weeks but he is a #1 WR priced as a #2. From what I am hearing around here, Gordon looks ready to go and has been looking great in practice. The matchup can't really get any better either, plus he is in a dome and browns will probably be throwing a good bit since their D is really banged up. This COULD be a shootout, have not looked at Vegas but would not be surprised if it's close to 50

I like both, I like McCown more because of the money difference (think around $1300 on FD). I see both of them putting up around 20 fantasy points, McCown allows for some flexibility with his pricing

Have to openly disagree with you on this. To me the play here is to fade this game minus Crowell. The public is going to have way too much Josh Gordon this week, and Gordon well could be on a snap count in the game. Also many don't look at it enough but I can't help but notice the difference in Gordon's preseasons from this and last year. Last year Gordon was tearing it up in preseason and this year he was shut down and didn't look like the same person.

With the high ownership and his price tag in GPP I think your better off fading Gordon then playing him. It's not like Gordon was priced that much down this week on the sites either so you might be getting a little extra value at 6300 on Draftkings and 7800 on fanduel but it's not that much to me to want to play such a heavily owned player this week in tournaments. If he meets expectations for the price or goes below them then a huge advantage is there for the fade.

As for the game over under I think its close. Falcons last 5 hit the under, and they haven't played a game at home in a month. Most points Browns have scored on the road this year in a game was 29 but most recent game was getting blown out at home against the Texans and then pulling off a surprise upset in Cincinnati in that rain soaked windy mess on Thursday night football. Browns are 2-2 with a loss to the Jaguars on the road and seem to be unpredictable to me. Can't trust this situation with the Browns and the Falcons are a mess too. There is a huge cold/flu sickness invading that teams locker room right now and keeping people like Julio Jones from practicing. I personally am staying away from this game for the reasons I stated.
