Wood Brothers Racing

2017 Predicted Points Finish: #20

Menard is often a forgotten man in fantasy circles, and while he certainly won't win wow you with his numbers, he has been a steady Top-20 driver since joining Richard Childress Racing. Plus last year, he is coming off a year when he recorded a career-high five Top-5s and a career-high 13 Top-10s. No, he doesn't offer much in the way of upside, but at least you know what you are getting with Menard.
