NASCAR DFS Prop Picks for 4/18 - PrizePicks

Hello everybody and welcome! We hit another short track at Richmond Raceway this week and another edition of NASCAR DFS on PrizePicks. Now, that means our new friends over at PrizePicks have a TON of great props we can look to take advantage of. PrizePicks is a great DFS props site where you can choose to select plays in terms of fantasy points or single stats. The goal is to build a 2-player, 3-player, 4-player, or 5-player entry and then select whether or not you want to play for the power play or the flex play. On the power play, you will need to be correct on each of your selections to win, and on the flex play, you will have a little more wiggle room for a chance to win some money back.

Our partners at PrizePicks offer some of the best, and easiest to win, NASCAR DFS games in the industry. There are no large-field tournaments filled with sharks where you have to get lucky just to place. At PrizePicks, you're not playing against other people, you're just playing against the projections, and the guys at PrizePicks have worked hard to give you really attractive opportunities to make some money. With promo code 'BALLER' you can get a 100% match on your deposit up to $100.

PrizePicks and NASCAR focus on Fantasy Score which has a scoring system where 1st nets 40 points, 2nd is worth 39, 3rd is worth 38, and so on. Every lap led equals an extra 0.01 points. For NASCAR, we are going to try and focus on the main board's Fantasy Score and see which players may go over or under their projected point totals. Let's see what the board offers today!

Editor's Note: Win more with our NASCAR DFS Premium Pass! Jordan McAbee anchors the team with his exclusive picks, DFS projections and algorithm-predicted finishing order. Get VIP access to our Lineup Optimizer, Research Station and Cheat Sheets for NASCAR Cup, Xfinity and Trucks contests. Join in on the fun with our other NASCAR DFS winners! Go Premium, Win More!

Fantasy Score Point Totals

Joey Logano Over 33.5 Points. Logano starts the Toyota Owners 400 from the fourth position coming off a sixth-place finish at Martinsville. He led just six laps but could lead a few more on Sunday at Richmond. The last couple of Spring races have seen Logano finish in the top five and last year, the Team Penske driver finished on the podium while leading 45 laps. If not for a late error in judgment, Logano might have won that race. He just has to guide the Ford to a seventh-place finish or better on Sunday and that seems reasonable.

Denny Hamlin Over 35 Points. Hamlin has somehow still not won a single race this season but has seven top-five finishes in eight races. With fifth place receiving 36 points, this looks to be the surest bet of all. Hamlin led 276 laps last Sunday and starts from the second position on Sunday. If he races anything like the Joe Gibbs Racing driver did last week, Hamlin could again lead a considerable amount of laps. A hundred laps led equals one point in PrizePicks. That can make enough of a difference alone with the slightly higher point total compared to last week. Richmond might even see the No. 11 take home the checkered flag.

William Byron Over 29.5 Points. We would argue here to just run with the over and collect your dollars again. Byron has finished in the top ten six straight races and the likelihood is high that occurs again on Sunday. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver has the goods to even contend for the checkered flag. His Chevy starts from the fourth position at Richmond and that alone just makes it simple. If he stays in the top ten, the over hits with ease. He started third last week and started to move up late before settling for fourth. A few longer runs benefit Byron so the fewer cautions may mean an even better result on Sunday.

Chase Elliott Over 33.5 Points. This is low for Elliott and honestly, he may not have led a lap at Martinsville but his car was probably the second or third-fastest during the 42 lap final run into the finish. The thought process is that if there are a couple of longer runs on Sunday, Elliott might even breakthrough and win the Toyota Owners 400. Elliott has had a tough time defending his Cup Series title but things are starting to look up for the Hendrick Motorsports driver.

Martin Truex Jr. Under 37 Points. Truex Jr. proved us wrong last week at Martinsville as he passed Denny Hamlin and held off Chase Elliott by around two seconds during the final run into the finish. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver gets the pole on Sunday. Can he do it one more time on Sunday? The problem is the result in Bristol when he cut his tire still weighs in some minds a bit. Could he lead enough laps? Truex Jr. is excellent on short tracks but aggressive. Being too aggressive in Richmond is a risk/reward proposition. We risk the under here.
