After posting the fifth best practice time (30.319), Todd Gilliland ended up only qualifying 32nd for Sunday's Ally 400 at Nashville Superspeedway. Despite the loss of speed between practice and qualifying, and even though he has an average finish of 29.5 in his two Cup starts here, do not be too quick to dismiss the second-generation driver in DFS this weekend. Even though the results may not be there, the Front Row Motorsports star has been very competitive this season, and he is starting to look like a driver on the verge of a major breakout. Given that his starting position provides tremendous place differential upside, that he is showing tremendous maturity on the track each week, and that he has a modest salary of just $6,700, Todd Gilliland is a driver you will want to have plenty of exposure to this weekend in DFS and is perhaps one of the better value plays on the slate.--Adam Erhardt - RotoBaller

Could we see Todd Gilliland finally break through with a win in the NASCAR Cup Series this weekend? It's not overly likely, but it wouldn't be surprising to see the Front Row Motorsports driver run up front on Sunday. Gilliland has a strong track record at Talladega Superspeedway, with top-10 finishes in three of his six career starts here. Add in another 12th-place finish to his résumé and Talladega has been one of the strongest track for him (average finish-wise) in the Cup Series. This weekend, Gilliland qualified a relatively disappointing 15th for Sunday's Jack Link's 500, which makes him an interesting DFS option. At $7,200 on the DraftKings slate, Gilliland is a mid-tier driver with limited Place Differential upside. However, if he's able to pull off a top-five finish, Gilliland will get to the coveted 50+ FPTS mark. He's definitely an option in DFS tournaments on Sunday, but be careful with how much exposure you have on Gilliland this weekend.--Jordan McAbee

It may be a long race on Sunday for Todd Gilliland, as the Food City 500 is set to take place at Bristol Motor Speedway and 500 laps are scheduled to be run in "Thunder Valley" with tire concerns running rampant for all teams. Gilliland will roll off the starting grid from 30th-place and could find himself a lap down early due to that poor track position to start with. Additionally, the No. 34 Ford hasn't shown the most speed this weekend. In addition to being pretty slow in qualifying, Gilliland was 34th-fastest on the practice speed chart (out of 39 drivers) and ranked 33rd-fastest in 10-lap average (out of 34). With that being said, because of how volatile races at Bristol can be, and because of Gilliland Place Differential upside, you should have some exposure to the Front Row Motorsports driver in DFS this weekend at his $6,200 price tag. Gilliland does have a couple of respectful finishes here at Bristol in his four career starts, finishing 18th and 16th in his first two attempts in 2022 and 2023.--Jordan McAbee

Don't be surprised if Todd Gilliland sneaks into the top 15 in the Goodyear 400 on Sunday afternoon. In his six career starts at Darlington Raceway, Gilliland has finished 17th or better four times, including a career-best 11th-place finish in the spring race here back in 2023. This weekend, Todd ended up posting the 12th-fastest lap in qualifying and will roll off the starting grid from the sixth row on Sunday. In practice, the No. 34 Ford looked pretty decent on the long run, too, as Gilliland ranked 11th-best in terms of 30-lap average during that session. Typically not known for his intermediate prowess, Todd Gilliland has a better-than-expected record at Darlington Raceway. He's an extremely risky DFS pick on Sunday ($6,100 on DraftKings) due to his high starting position, but Gilliland could surprise people this weekend and grab a third top-10 finish of the 2025 season. He's fresh off of a 10th-place result at Martinsville one week ago.--Jordan McAbee

Todd Gilliland grabbed his second top-10 finish of the season on Sunday afternoon, coming home 10th at Martinsville Speedway after a mistake-free day in the 400-lap race. This is Gilliland's second top-10 result of the season (and third top 15) through the first seven races of the year, with the other being a 10th-place finish at COTA. His race at Martinsville ends a skid for the No. 34 Front Row Motorsports team, as they had a rough couple of weeks at Las Vegas and Homestead, finishing 29th and 30th (respectively) in those two races. He currently sits in 22nd-place in the points standings as the Cup Series heads to Darlington next weekend. Gilliland could be in line for another good run there, as he has finished between 11th and 17th in four of his six career starts at "The Lady in Black."--Jordan McAbee
