How To Use Vegas Odds for Fantasy Football (2023)

How To Use Vegas Odds for Fantasy Football (2023)

Fantasy football and betting, both in content and analysis, are so intertwined these days. Analyzing one can often help to succeed in both facets.

Furthermore, fantasy football managers should always be on the lookout for that extra edge that can turn their team from a contender into a champion. While player projections and rankings are a valuable resource, other factors can be leveraged to gain an advantage in the virtual gridiron battle.

In this article, I delve into the world of game spread and player props, shedding light on how they can complement traditional player projections and help you build a winning roster.

As with most things, using Vegas odds should not be the end-all-be-all for making your lineup decisions. Instead, they should be used as another data point and as a way to break ties for difficult lineup decisions. Furthermore, you should mostly be considering cases at the extreme ends of the spectrum.

For example, the difference between a team favored by 2.5 points and a team favored by 4.5 points is not nearly as meaningful of a difference between a team favored by 7.5 points and one as a 3.5-point underdog.
