Do the same 17% win consistently over time? Because it sounds much more plausible that there’s more potential for overlap winners over time picking combinations of fantasy players, at least to me. I mean there’s probably folks out there that do absolutely no research and just pick their favourite players every time regardless.

Good question. I don't think we have enough information.
For instance, what's the distribution of wagering among the players? It could be that 17% of the players wager 90% of the total take, in which case you would expect to see winnings, in dollar terms, distributed similarly.
