Woopdeewoo Jumps 11 Places Into The Top-25!
For those of you who remember the rankings articles of old (it was only 2 months ago), I was always impressed when highly ranked players were able to make big jumps on the leaderboard. Because as you get higher up, you are trying to displace some of the biggest volume players this industry has to offer. This week Woopdeewoo moved up double-digits into the Top-25 in an impressive feat. Full details and more in this week’s Rankings Update.
This week we’ll return to the standard format for the rankings article. We’ll break it down into two sections. Next week I’ll check back in on the MLB Leaderboard and see who’s been on a hot streak over the 14 days prior.
- Part One: Top-25 Breakdown – Top 25 Table and breakdown of players moving up the GLB
- Part Two: Top-100 Breakdown – Which players are new to the leaderboard? Which moved up 10 places or more? All included in part two.

Notes:
1) It was a huge week for movement amongst the Top-25 Overall Grinders on our leaderboard. Woopdeewoo made a serious move by entering the Top-25 for the first time with an 11 spot jump from 35th a week ago, so HUGE props to him.
2) GrindersLive Host, and one of America’s 50 Most Eligible Married Men, SocrDave was also able to push into the Top 25 this week with a 6 place jump to 20th overall. Apparently his DFS game is better than his internet connection!
3) BirdWings, Maxdalury and STLCardinals84 each moved up within the Top-5 this week and are neck and neck with #6 PrimeTime420, #7 ehafner and #8 Notorious. This should be an awesome back and forth all season long.

Notes:
What a wild week on the leaderboard altogether. The 9 players able to join the GLB who weren’t listed a week ago is probably the most I’ve ever seen in almost a year and a half of writing this article. MrShonenJump joins the board at the highest spot, ranking #82 overall. But other than him, all of the new players this week are guys who have been here before. Let’s see if all of them can keep up the momentum over the next 7 days and remain in the Top-100!

Notes:
1) DraftKings rep FatalError ties with fellow Grinder RFK213 for the biggest move this week. Each jumped 14 spots. For FatalError, he now stands in 67th overall. RFK213 sits in 76th.
2) One of the best players on StarStreet, and infamous for DB730 failing to pronounce his name correctly on the podcast, MrTobiasFunke has expanded his arsenal and is red hot at DraftStreet right now. That helped him move up 13 places this week to #85 overall.
3) The highest ranked Grinder to make a double-digit jump this week was Metsfan828 who can take solace in knowing that his DFS game is picking up, while his beloved Mets rapidly fall apart.
4) Weekend Warrior Emac and longtime Grinder funnyman RotoKevin both moved up 10 places this week.
