I took three sets of projections, then averaged them together to generate a fourth.
I converted those projections into expected fantasy points using the scoring systems at each of the Daily Games sites shown below.
I then set my computer to the task of finding the lineups at each site with the greatest expected point totals based on those projections.
Here are the results.
| primary | secondary |
(Note: The table below is based on projections current as of 1/2/2015 at 7:46 pm (EST). It will be edited periodically throughout the week as projections are updated. Players in the Thursday night game are currently included, but will be excluded after that game's kickoff.)
