Matt DiBenedetto - I left Matt off of my article yesterday, so I will give him a mention today. And I loved him last weekend at Kentucky and he honestly outperformed what I was expecting from him. The No.21 car was very impressive and we could see another strong run out of him today at Texas. I have been really impressed by him all season, with how well he has ran. I think his consistency is what makes him such an attractive fantasy option and now is starting to find the speed in the car, too. Speed and consistency is a very lethal fantasy combo! In 4 of 6 races this season on 1.5 mile tracks, he has finished inside the top 15. In 5 of 6 races, he has finished in the top 18.
William Byron - Byron may not have a lot of top 5 finishes or anything, but he is a lot better fantasy option than most people will give him credit for. And he is starting to get some good finishes and he is trending the right direction on these 1.5 mile tracks, too. On 1.5 mile tracks, he has finished between 9th and 12 in three of his last four races. In fact, he has finished between 8th and 11th in five of his last seven races. In the two other races? He finished 14th at Pocono and then he was running top 5 at Indy, but had issues.
Dislikes -
Erik Jones - Jones once again had a poor finish at Kentucky, even though it marked his third-best finish on a 1.5 mile track on the season. The bad news? He finished 21st. Yikes, yeah it has been a pretty bad season for Erik Jones and that No.20 team. I honestly can't really make much sense of Erik Jones' season so far. It's not like he has been horrible during the races on a weekly basis, as he has ran well at times. However, he has finished 20th or worse in six of last eight races this season. His two good finishes has resulted in top 5 finishes, though. Right now, it is extremely tough to get a good read on Erik Jones. There has been more bad than good at this point, so we gonna have to assume that he is a bad play until he isn't anymore!
Jimmie Johnson - Johnson started off the season pretty good, but he has declined and so has the speed in the car of the No.48 car. In his last 5 races this season, he has no finishes better than 13th and holds 16.8 average finish. Johnson is starting to look a lot like last season now. He looks like the worst hendrick driver in that span and he is. Ranked worst in both average running position and driver rating. And Texas hasn't been too kind to him overall over last couple seasons. In his last 5 races here, he has just one finish better than 15th. In his other 4 races? He has finishes of 15th, 27th, 35th and 35th. I know some people will gamble on him, but I wouldn't gamble on him. There's better fantasy options out there to consider for this weekend's race!
