The Super Low Tier – Richmond

Greg Biffle – At Richmond, I can’t say I’m expecting much out of Greg Biffle, but when he last raced at Atlanta the #44 NY Racing Chevy finally went the distance and he finished 20th in a super high-attrition race. In his other two Cup starts this year he had fuel pump issues which led to poor results. If the #44 can avoid problems under their hood, I would view him as a mid-twenties driver who has upside.

Landon Cassill – Landon Cassill is back in the #77 for Richmond! In terms of fantasy potential, I think he’s clearly a high-twenties to low-thirties driver. This spring at Phoenix, Cassill finished 30th, had a 31.6 average running position and had the 33rd best Total Speed Ranking.

Cody Ware – At Richmond, I would look for Cody Ware to be a low-thirties driver. If things go really well, he might finish in the high-twenties but that’s being optimistic. This spring at Phoenix, Ware finished 31st. At Richmond, Ware has one start under his belt and last spring he finished 15 laps down in 36th.

BJ McLeod – BJ McLeod doesn’t do road courses and at Richmond, he’s back behind the wheel of the #78. On Sunday, I think he’s a high-twenties to low-thirties driver, but I would lean more towards the low-thirties. This spring at Phoenix, McLeod finished 33rd and at Richmond last year, he had results of 30th and 32nd.

Garrett Smithley – If you pick Garrett Smithley, pencil him in for a low to mid-thirties finish. At Richmond, Smithley has one start under his belt and last spring he finished 11 laps down in 35th. This year on the track, Smithley has finished in the low 30’s in 2 of his 3 races. One of his notable low 30’s results was a 32nd at Phoenix.
