Drivers outside the top 16 in the NASCAR standings will try to make every lap count in the next nine races, starting with Sunday's 2020 O'Reilly Auto Parts 500. The NASCAR playoffs loom after that, so drivers will try to earn every possible point when the green flag drops at 3 p.m. ET. That could make crafting your NASCAR DFS strategy even more challenging than usual. Points leader Kevin Harvick is the most expensive option in the NASCAR DFS driver pool at $11,300 on DraftKings and $14,500 on FanDuel.
However, is Harvick, a four-time winner this season, one of the 2020 O'Reilly Auto Parts 500 DFS picks to target? Before entering any NASCAR DFS contests like DraftKings' $700K Front Row or FanDuel's $300K Sunday NASCAR Intimidator, be sure to check out the optimal NASCAR DFS strategy and advice from SportsLine's daily Fantasy expert, Mike McClure.

He also had Truex Jr. at No. 1 in his DraftKings value rankings for his win at Martinsville and then had Kevin Harvick at No. 1 for his win at Indianapolis. Anybody who has followed his picks has seen huge returns.
Now, he's turned his attention to Sunday's 2020 O'Reilly Auto Parts 500. He's only sharing his picks and NASCAR DFS driver pool here.
Top 2020 O'Reilly Auto Parts 500 NASCAR DFS picks
McClure's O'Reilly Auto Parts 500 DFS picks include Tyler Reddick at $7,800 on DraftKings and $8,500 on FanDuel. Reddick is enjoying a strong rookie season for Richard Childress Racing in the NASCAR Cup Series with five top-10 finishes. Reddick's run includes an eighth-place finish two weeks ago at Indianapolis and a 10th at Kentucky last week.
NASCAR DFS bettors have reason to look at Reddick this week beyond just his Cup Series performance. Reddick also has two second-place finishes in five Xfinity Series starts at Texas Motor Speedway, proving he knows his way around the quad-oval. He's a value pick to jump on for Sunday's 2020 O'Reilly Auto Parts 500.
McClure's NASCAR DFS strategy also includes rostering Joey Logano ($9,500 on DraftKings, $11,500 on FanDuel), who has two wins and seven top-10s this season. "Sliced Bread" has visited Victory Lane at Texas Motor Speedway as part of his 25-victory NASCAR Cup Series career, winning the 2014 Duck Commander 500.
Currently fifth in the NASCAR Cup Series points standings, Logano won at Las Vegas and Phoenix before COVID-19 derailed the NASCAR season. After the restart, he has top-10 runs at Darlington, Charlotte, Martinsville and Indianapolis. And with 12 top-10 runs at Texas, McClure sees Logano as a strong NASCAR DFS plays for Sunday's O'Reilly Auto Parts 500.
