In addition to the fantasy football content we’ve been posting this year, we also decided to take our addictive personalities and take a shot at something that potentially fills our needs for gambling big money AND staying focused on even more football games than our 8 fantasy football teams require–FanDuel.com. We actually got an account established when we signed up for another fantasy football site subscription, and after a couple of slow weeks at the beginning of the year, we were hooked.

Based on some feedback some a friend of ours that has been playing for a couple years, we quickly started to focus on the 50/50 leagues, where you only have to finish in the top half of the league to get paid.  Of course, our luck at FanDuel has been somewhere between our regular Fantasy Football (I personally made the playoffs in all three leagues for the first time that I remember, and have two byes this weekend) and our regular football betting column.

So we decided this week to go ahead and post the lineup we chose this week for our biggest FanDuel league–a $60k salary cap 50/50 league:

QB – Joe Flacco – $6,900RB – Jamaal Charles – $9,600
RB – CJ Spiller – $6,500
WR – Torrey Smith – $6,600
WR – Calvin Johnson – $10,000
WR – Jacoby Jones – $5,000
TE – Charles Clay – $5,000
K – Blair Walsh – $5,400
Def – Baltimore Ravens – $5,000
