FanDuel NFL Draft Percentages: Week 2

Brandon Gdula  —  @gdula13 Sep 19th, 2022
Davante Adams was super popular in head-to-heads and the most popular pick in the Sunday Million. Who else was an anchor play?

If you've played fantasy football over on FanDuel, then you know the importance of draft percentages, especially in larger-field tournaments.

Knowing who the competition is rostering enables you to think with a contrarian mindset. And if your under-the-radar play ends up hitting, then, well, you're one step closer to a victory.

Each week, we'll be posting the previous week's draft percentages to help you see how the public was thinking. It'll let you see who the public drafted, which can be helpful when doing research for upcoming games.

Let's take a look at the numbers from the Week 2 main slate. If a player is not listed, his draft percentage was lower than 0.10% in the featured tournament.
