Daily Fantasy College Football Picks for FanDuel, DraftKings Early Games 8/30/14
Daily Fantasy College Football Picks for FanDuel, DraftKings Early Games 8/30/14 Welcome back to the College Football season. It’s such a great time of year with Saturdays and Sundays fully occupied with football. We’ve got you covered with some of the biggest player pools DFS has to offer. Be sure to check out our picks for Thursday’s CFB slate as well. Also, we will have full NFL picks coming early next week along with our full NFL projections for all your Sunday DFS needs. And finally, there’s still time to get a free 3-day trial to our baseball projections. On to the picks. Quarterbacks We are going to site-specific for a couple of these postions today. J.T. Barrett - FD 4500 Braxton Miller was a stay away for me anyway, but now he's done for the year. Barrett assumes the starting role for the Buckeyes and for your lineups. I don’t know a damn thing about him (or her for all I know). What I do know is programs like theee Ohio St. are littered with premium athletes and programs like Navy are not. This move has a ripple effect as well. It allows money allocation to other premium positions (see Todd Gurley for example). I only wish he was available on DraftKings. Rakeem Cato - FD 9800 Not available on DraftKings, but my top big money play of the day. If you are choosing to spend on QB instead of Barrett then this is a way to go on FanDuel. Cato is a video game, literally. The stats he puts up on the regular are lip smacking. Five touchdown days are not out of the norm for this cat. He's pricey and I will likely choose to allocate my dollars elsewhere, but if you can fit him in he provides extreme safety. C.J. Brown - DK 6400 This will be CJ's 6th year at College Park, the Crash Davis of college football if you will. Health has been a subject of concern, but there's no denying what this dude brings to the table. Brown rushed for almost 600yds and had 12 rushing TD's in 11 games last season. Really 10 games if you consider the 80 total yard, 63-0, ol fashion ass whoopin, by FSU, where Brown got hurt in the 2nd qtr. CJ struggles against the big boys, but crushes weaker competition. He's the duel threat guy we like to target and has an amazing weapon on the outside in Stefon Diggs. Check this, last year the Terps opened with FIU (that's Florida International for you newbies) and Brown finished with almost 400 total yards and 5 TD's. Maryland hosts JMU (that's James Madison University for you...
Daily Fantasy College Football Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings for Thursday 8/28/14
Daily Fantasy College Football Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings for Thursday 8/28/14 Ahhhh. Its back! Finally something to make it worth getting out of bed in the morning. I, like you, live for football and especially college football. Even more than that, DAILY FANTASY COLLEGE FOOTBALL!!! I'm happily married with 3 kids and would trade every single one of em to force the NFL and NCAA to play football 13 months a year. Love you honey☺ In an ever changing landscape of depth charts, NCAA violations and drinking champagne on an oversized rubber ducky where do you start? Too many players? Too many teams? Overwhelming? Cascarruthers & DFSR have everything you need to dominate the competition. Quarterbacks Connor Halliday – FD 8800 DK 6900 Wash State passes to setup the pass and then passes again to rub it in. Halliday was a viable option most weeks last year and now has an even greater command of the offense Mike Leach runs (or passes). He’s 5th year senior with basically the same WR Corp from 2013, playing a home game against a less-than-stellar defensive opponent in Rutgers. Halliday attempted over 50 passes an eye-popping 8 times last year, which includes an 89 attempt game to boot! Pure volume alone makes Halliday about as safe a pick possible for opening week. P.J. Walker – FD 7500 DK 5100 Dual threat – check! Second year in the same offense – check! Manning Award watch list – check! Walker had some ups and downs last year, as should be expected for a freshman. And he does comes with a few risks for week 1 with playing on the road against an SEC team (Vandy) and some new faces at WR. But the latter doesn’t really scare me and could actually prove to beneficial fantasy wise. The upside at this price is worth the gamble. Bo Wallace – DK 6300 Bo Wallace is back for another year trying to lead the Rebels to their first, IDK, anything. Stuck playing in the SEC Ole Miss runs into NFL caliber defenses on the regular so Wallace rarely makes my lineups. Boise St is no cupcake, but they aren’t Bama or LSU either. Bo, now in his 3rd year as a starter, has a superb understanding of the offense and should be the unquestioned leader. Primarily a passer with the ability to sneak in some rushing yards Mr. Wallace has the goods you're looking for to open the fantasy season. The price is a little steep on FD, but he is squarely in my DK lineups across the board. BO KNOWS DFS CFB Running Backs Mike Davis – FD 9300 DK 6700 Davis returns as the...
