Hello Daily Fantasy Sports fans! Welcome to this week’s edition of the Weekly Rankings Update. Last week was a slower weekend in the industry, as we only gave away a boat load of money in tournaments instead of bajillions. If you don’t see your name in rankings yet, have no fear! Rotogrinders is running a sweet promo in conjunction with Draftstreet this week for a pants-load of Qualifier tickets. For $11 you have a shot at anywhere between $2000 and $22 Q tickets. It’s all simple really: Parlay that $11 into a Q ticket, win the Q, go to Vegas, win $1 Million, get your name in the Weekly Rankings, have your own mee mee made for you. Piece of Cake!

McJester is threatening to make a big splash in the TPOY after a good score in the FanDuel Bomb and also qualifying for the FFFC. Almost all of the top 10 with the exception of Dinkpiece has hit their maximum of 30 tournament scores. Each of them is now looking to improve over their low-end finishes in order to boost their ranking. There is a lot of change between 11th and 25th each week with so many big tournaments every weekend for football. Things are shaping up for a tight race to the finish with three months remaining.

Ehafner is a short few weeks from being immortalized with the Baseball Championship meme. BirdWings narrowed the gap last week, but it looks like time will run out in his quest for the top spot with very few large tournaments left in the season.

The first round of NFL rankings are out, and much to nobody’s shock, Condia is #1. The real question this year is how much volume he will put in for the year, and how many points can he accumulate during the season?
