Since the start of our public Discord server, I’ve been posting ALL of the transactions that I’ve made on Prediction Strike, the world’s first sports stock market. I’ve also started a show that is ONLY on Thursdays at 8 pm ET on Discord where I identify players that interest me for the week and that my audience should take note of.
A brief recap of Week 6: Devin Singletary and Kyle Pitts both saw their share price increase, while Lamar Jackson went down. BUT if you joined the PlayerProfiler Discord server, you would have received a fourth buy option from me: Ja’Marr Chase. That was the big money-making move on the platform! Let’s carry the momentum into Week 7.
BUY No. 1: NICK CHUBB
The NFL’s leading rusher missed his Prediction Strike projection for the first time this season last week, and his price plummeted from $10.04 to $8.74 per share. It appears that Prediction Strike has overreacted to this and dropped Nick Chubb‘s projection to 15.03 points, which is the lowest since Week 1 and it’s 2.5 points lower than his previous two weeks.
Making money on Prediction Strike comes down to beating their projections. Among running backs, Chubb has the second-highest point differential when compared to PlayerProfiler’s projections. Chubb is No. 1 in red zone touches, No. 2 in carries, and a proven fantasy contributor. It’s the cheapest he’s been in a month both in price and exactly what we want to add to our portfolio.
BUY No. 2: KEENAN ALLEN
Admittedly, this is a risky move. Keenan Allen‘s playing status is considered game-time status, but the risk is worth the reward. In the past year, Allen’s projected points have never been below 15 points…until now. Allen, as of this writing, is projected for 12.76 points, and his price is also at its lowest point too. Bingo, target acquired.
Assuming he plays, Allen is No. 2 with a point differential of 2.4. He’s one of four WRs with a point differential over 2.0, and it’s been proven week after week that RBs and WRs over the 2.0 point differential are good bets to take on Prediction Strike.
BUY No. 3: GARRETT WILSON
I usually have a strict no-rookie rule when it comes to Prediction Strike, but Garrett Wilson is too good to pass up. Where others see a tough matchup against the Denver Broncos, I see an opportunity. Wilson is projected for 9.4 fantasy points on Prediction Strike even after Elijah Moore was ruled out. His point differential this week is OVER 4.0 and only one other player in the NFL has a point differential higher than Wilson.
Wilson’s teammate, Corey Davis, draws the tougher CB matchup against Patrick Surtain (No. 3-ranked CB) and his 61.9-percent (No. 7) Shadow Rate, while Wilson will match up against Damarri Mathis (No. 100-ranked CB). Wilson is at his lowest price in six weeks and has dipped for three consecutive weeks.
