DraftKings Reignmakers | Week 17 Contest Recap
In Week 17, the teams that rostered stacks of Tom Brady to Mike Evans sat atop the leaderboards. The 45-year-old veteran had by far his best game of the season, throwing for 432 yards and three touchdowns in a pivotal game for the NFC South title.
Mike Evans was on the receiving end of all three of Brady’s touchdowns, scoring 51.70 DKFP in an overall WR1 performance. With DJ Moore and Chris Godwin finishing as the WR6 and WR7, respectively, full-on game stacks of this game were squarely in play this week.
Surprisingly, only the CORE winner rostered less than three players from this game, however, this user had the perfect lineup construction. This was only the second time all year that someone created the perfect lineup on the main slate.
This week held the SlyCrocs League and the Aoki All-Star Championship in the CORE tier. The winner of the SlyCrocs League won $3,000 cash, SupDuck #5477, and a special 1:1 original NFT from the MegaVolt team.
In the Aoki League, first place won $1,500 and the top four finishers won an exclusive Las Vegas experience at the poker table with Steve Aoki and friends.
