SonicLibrarian

Mass-Multi-Entry GPP Expert

JM and Xandamere were having lunch together in 2019 when X mentioned Sonic (nhpain on DK) as the sharpest DFS player he knew. “It’s a matter of time until he wins the Millionaire Maker.

Larejo123

Leverage & Strategy

Larejo (Larejo123 on all DFS sites) is an OWS gem, with tens of thousands in lifetime DFS winnings in spite of never having more than a few hundred dollars at risk on a slate. Larejo’s unique ability to embrace overlooked plays that provide maximum leverage has allowed him to A) notch a sixth-place Milly Maker finish with only three rosters entered, and to B) consistently point the OWS Fam toward game-changing large-field tourney options.

Jreas11

Betting Analyst

One of the core messages of One Week Season is that there are edges available to everyone…but not everyone’s edge is the same. Josh Reason (Jreas11 on DraftKings) is an ideal example of this truth, as he has leveraged the NFL Edge game writeups to focus on profitable prop betting in lieu of DFS cash games. Josh joined the OWS team in 2021 to as part of the early development of our Props Insider team.

Our Story (From JM) ::

During my first several years in the NFL research and content space — in fact, from the moment I first started playing DFS in 2013 (and first started looking for ways to sharpen my game) — I noticed that there was a lack of training/education resources available for individuals who wanted to “learn how to fish.” DFS is a strategy game — a unique puzzle that, in the case of NFL, we get to solve each week — yet content is often geared toward the likelihood (or lack thereof) of a particular team or player doing well on a particular, isolated slate. This would be like telling a poker player which hands are good and which hands are bad without any deeper level of insight or knowledge. One Week Season was launched in 2018 with a cohesive vision of making you better at DFS, sports betting, fantasy, and life. Our goal is to give you thousands of dollars worth of training within each NFL season: not only equipping you for the slate ahead, but also sharpening your knowledge and understanding of the NFL and the ins and outs of profitable thinking and approaches so you can consistently bank on profit over time.
