The King of all Fantasy sports the National Football League (NFL) returns for the 2021 edition! After the craziness of 2020, it seems as fantasy players we are now accustomed to the injuries, changes to schedules and the "reserve lists"! Like many NFL seasons, the buildup to Week 1 is enormous and this season is no different with the Tom Brady led Tampa Bay Bucs looking to go back to back with the same squad as 2020. New rookies on the scene taking over QB starting roles and the return of superstars after an injury interupted 2020.   


If this is your first foray into NFL Daily Fantasy you can also read our how-to guide that will get you up to speed on scoring and strategy on Draftstars and DraftKings.

Draftstars

Australian Daily Fantasy site Draftstars are back for another season but with changes to the scoring and positional makeup of your teams. The single-game contest offering known as “Flex” continues with a $80,000 starting salary and the selection of 6 players. And as always the Mega Sunday (or should we say Monday morning) slates for players to complete in. The scoring system has had some tweaks with the introduction of scoring bonuses for Passing (300+ yards), Rushing (100+ yards) and Receiving (100+ yards).

 

Updated Draftstars Scoring

 

However the big change is the positional makeup of your lineups. Draftstars have changed requirements from your lineup to reflect the same structure as DraftKings. That is a Quarterback (QB). x2 Running Backs (RB), x3 Wide Receivers, x1 Tight End (TE), x1 Flex, x1 Defence/Special Teams (DST). This has changed from the x2 WR and x2 Flex in seasons past. When you lineup both sites together in terms of scoring and positions, they are identical. 

 

 

The opening fixture is available with a $15,000 contest for the Buccaneers up against the Cowboys! 

The Mega Sunday is now available at a site high $40,000 contest!
