Erik Jones Looks Faster Than In 2024, So He Could Be A Valuable DFS Option
1 month agoErik Jones on paper doesn't look like a valuable option for Sunday's Atlanta race as he qualified 28th, and the Toyotas seem to have substantially less speed than they did in the Daytona 500. Nonetheless, Jones remains one of the strongest drafters in the series, and his near miss in the Duel race suggests he has likely made significant headway in recovering from his injury at Talladega last year and should be a lot faster in this race. Although both of Jones' finishes were poor last year, he has an average finish of 16.3 and has never crashed out at Atlanta, even in the drafting-era races. That suggests he is likely to progress through the field but probably won't lead much since the Fords will dominate. He seems to be a highly valuable DFS option, even if his chances of winning seem remote.
