00:00 Intro
01:28 I built lineups for the 2-game Monday night slate. I noticed that after running the contest sim and sorting by target contest ROI, I had almost 50% exposure to Will Levis at QB. I know I am free to adjust exposures and I did but I am wondering why the sims would like him so much when he was the worst projected QB on the slate?
04:30 What’s the difference between direct fill and auto-fill?
13:00 Could you help me set some lineup rules for NFL main slates?
15:44 I've noticed after making adjustments, that my saved lineups will be greater than the number of lineups in my field- what is happening here?
17:50 Let's say I want 50 lineups with Player A&B locked in, then 50 lineups with A&B omitted- can this be done somehow?
20:20 I feel I’m able to use SaberSim really well with a light touch in every sport except NFL. Any guidance on how to deal with this?
24:08 After the post build as well as running the contest sims, while building a portfolio, do I need to run another contest sims under favorites?
27:26 How come aggregates do not show the average under auto-fill vs direct fill?
