3 days agoChase Elliott of Hendrick Motorsports will start 17th for Sunday's Daytona 500. Elliott was awarded the starting spot for placing eighth and leading 15 laps during the first of two Daytona Duel races. In 18 races at Daytona in his Cup career, Elliott has five top-10 finishes, including two out of the six races with the Next-Gen car since its introduction in 2022. In first practice, Elliott ranked 29th in single lap times, while in second practice, the No. 9 Chevrolet driver ranked second in single lap times and 10th of all drivers in 10 consecutive lap averages. Although Elliott's Duel performance inspires confidence, he is still one of the more expensive drivers to consider rostering for this week's race ($9,500 on DraftKings and $11,000 on FanDuel). Elliott is a decent and playable option for DFS but should be mainly utilized as a pivot play for tournaments since his rostership may be below average due to his mixed Daytona history and how he has some upside at the same time.--Sean Engel - RotoBaller
