Game Stack - Raiders @ Saints Josh Jacobs FD 9000 DK 7500 Opponent NO Proj Points FD - 21.67 DK - 23.48 Andy Dalton FD 7100 DK 5500 Opponent LV Proj Points FD - 12.28 DK - 12.28 Chris Olave FD 6900 DK 6000 Opponent LV Proj Points FD - 14.75 DK - 17.62 This game has the second-highest total on the slate and provides us with multiple ways to stack it. My favorite starts with Josh Jacobs who has been tremendous lately with 20 or more rush attempts and 143 or more rushing yards in three straight games while also reaching the endzone a whopping six times! On top of that, he has also been involved in the passing game catching 13 of 15 targets for another 82 yards in that time and that is key when playing full PPR on DraftKings. That heavy run approach has been key in turning the Raiders season around and I don't see it stopping against a Saints team that has been vulnerable to the run lately. Last week Eno Benjamin rushed for 92 yards on just 12 carries(7.7 yards per rush), Joe Mixon only rushed for 45 yards on them in week 6 but that was on just eight carries(5.6 yards per carry) and he also caught a TD through the air, and Kenneth Walker blew them up for 88 yards on eight carries(11 yards per rush) and a touchdown the week before that. I will be running this back with Andy Dalton in a game script where the Saints are chasing and need to pass 40+ times once again. Dalton showed us his ceiling last week in a come-from-behind game script where he threw for 361 yards and four touchdowns. I doubt we see that sort of upside again but it's possible against a Raiders defense that is 30th in DVOA against the pass. I will pair Dalton with his primary pass-catcher Chris Olave who is most definitely in the running for Rookie of the Year. Even with more coverage pushed his way with Michael Thomas and Jarvis Landry out,...

Guards Ja Morant FD - $10600 DK - $10200 Opponent - SAC Proj Pts FD - 51.99 DK - 55.75 With Luka reaching the $12K mark on both sites, it makes it pretty easy to pivot to Morant, who is nearly $2K cheaper. Outside of the dud against Luka's Mavericks, Morant has been playing like an MVP shooting 56% from the field on elite usage(23.3 shots per game) while adding an average of eight assists and five rebounds in those games. He now gets an elite matchup against a Kings team that not only ranks 22nd in defensive efficiency but is also 6th in pace. With a monster total(237) in this game, I will be building around Morant in all formats. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander FD - $10300 DK - $9300 Opponent - LAC Proj Pts FD - 46.56 DK - 48.77 Tre Mann FD - $5400 DK - $5600 Opponent - LAC Proj Pts FD - 25.5 DK - 27.87 The Thunder are short-handed at the guard position with Giddey out of the lineup which has concentrated a lot of usage to these two players. That showed in their last game where they combined for 46 shots in a win against the Clippers. Let's start with SGA who was originally doubtful, then questionable, then starting with no restrictions in that game and went off for a 63-point fantasy game. He has been terrific to start the season with 20+ shots in all three games while adding a terrific mix of secondary scoring with 6.7 assists, 4.7 rebounds, and 4.0 streals+blocks. With the price remaining under $10K on DraftKings, that is where I have the most interest tonight. For Mann, it was his second start of the season and first without Giddey which was the difference maker in the volume and overall performance. He not only dropped 25 points, he added four rebounds, four assists, and two steals to give us a ceiling game of 40 fantasy points. I don't think we get that ceiling game again but with a mid $5K price tag we don't need it, at least for cash games. Spencer Dinwiddie FD - $5000 DK - $5500 Opponent - BKN Proj Pts FD - 26.45 DK - 29.55 Speaking of mid $5K guards, we have Dinwiddie who benefited big time with Hardaway missing Tuesday's game as he saw a...

Guards Damian Lillard FD - $8800 DK - $9500 Opponent - DEN Proj Pts FD - 45.04 DK - 47.54 It took Lillard a game to get in the groove and he is most definitely there shooting 54% on 50 shots over the last two games, including half of those shots coming from behind the arc(44% from 3pt range). Despite this being a back-to-back, I don't see the elite usage going away giving him a very high floor and it's also a pace-up game against the Nuggets who have also struggled defensively giving up 117 or more points in all three of their games. After back-to-back 50 fantasy point performances, the price has not gone up which has Lillard in my core in all formats. Devin Vassell FD - $5800 DK - $5400 Opponent - MIN Proj Pts FD - 27.58 DK - 28.11 Despite the Spurs' 2-1 start, they still have one of the league's weakest rosters and are expected to be in tank mode this season. That doesn't mean we can't target them for DFS and Devin Vassel has actually been a terrific PTS/$ option so far. He is second in usage behind Keldon Johnson and has taken 14 or more shots in all three games and has shot 55% over the last two while returning over 7x value on both sites. The matchup doesn't jump off the page but both this game has the highest total on the slate, both teams are running Top 10 pace, and the T-Wolves are playing on a back-to-back. Add it all up and Vassel is one of my favorite PTS/$ guards on Monday and in play in all formats. Terrence Ross FD - $5000 DK - $5700 Opponent - NY Proj Pts FD - 19.64 DK - 20.84 Cole Anthony FD - $6000 DK - $6200 Opponent - NY Proj Pts FD - 33.73 DK - 35.16 The Magic lost Jalen Suggs to an ankle sprain on Friday night and are now very shot-handed at the guard position with both Markelle Fultz and Gary Harris already out. Both Cole Anthony and Terrance Ross picked up the slack on Saturday playing 32 and 35 minutes respectively and that should continue for the foreseeable future. If that is the case, they are both a bit underpriced and if looking for safety, I lean toward...

Guards Luka Doncic FD - $10800 DK - $10700 Opponent - MEM Proj Pts FD - 55.06 DK - 57.17 The two most expensive guards on the slate face off against one another tonight and both provide an elite floor/ceiling combination. With Memphis playing on a back-to-back, I slightly lean Luka here coming off 50+ fantasy performance in game one and h wasn't even that efficient shooting 10 for 23 but made up for it going 13 for 13 from the free throw line while adding nine rebounds and six assists. He now faces a Grizzlies team that I mentioned is playing on a back-to-back and has given up over 110 points in both of their games. As long as the price remains under $11K, Luka is going to be a core play for me in all formats. Tyler Herro FD - $6200 DK - $6300 Opponent - TOR Proj Pts FD - 33.12 DK - 35.44 This will be the third time writing up Tyler Herro this season for the DFSR crew and it continues to baffle us why the price hasn't gone up yet. He was excellent on opening night giving USA 6x return on both sites and was even better last night putting up a near 7x return. He led the Heat with 21 shots putting gup 25 points and adding six rebounds and three assists while playing 36 minutes. The matchup doesn't jump off the page as the Raptors are an above-average defense but considering they are playing a back-to-back on the road and Herro's is just coming way too cheap, I am on board in all formats. Donovan Mitchell FD - $8500 DK - $9200 Opponent - CHI Proj Pts FD - 41.98 DK - 43.79 While the Cavs ended up losing their first game, management had to be thrilled about their huge off-season deal for Donovan Mitchell. He led the team with 21 shots and a 36% usage rate while posting a monster 50-point fantasy game. The price has gone up on DraftKings but if he continues to play at this level there is a good chance he will be a consistent 10K player on both sites this season. Tonight, he faces a Bulls team that is playing on a back-to-back while the Cavs have had a day to rest. Mitchell is a core play...

Cincinnati Bengals Double Stack Joe Burrow FD 8300 DK 6900 Opponent ATL Proj Points FD - 22.86 DK - 22.86 Ja'Marr Chase FD 8500 DK 8200 Opponent ATL Proj Points FD - 18.54 DK - 22.19 Tee HIggins FD 7100 DK 6400 Opponent ATL Proj Points FD - 12.31 DK - 14.85 The Bengals got the passing game going last week as Burrow put up a season-high 35 fantasy points on 300 yards passing and three touchdowns. While the offensive line is still bottom five in the league, Burrow is having a solid season throwing for 275 or more yards and multiple touchdowns in four of six games with 20+ fantasy points in each of those games. The Bengals are in another terrific spot this week against a poor Falcons defence that ranks 29th overall and 23rd against the pass. Digging deeper, there is a lot of upside in this matchup as the Falcons have allowed the 5th most passing yards on deep balls this season(via NFL Savant), 2nd most yards to receivers on the outside, and 8th most to receivers on the inside. They have held running backs somewhat in check ranking 12th in fantasy points against which is another reason I am starting the passing game as they rank 25th or worse in fantasy points to QB, WR, and TE. This is an offense I will be double stacking and it starts with Ja'Marr Chase who is coming off his best game of the season with 132 yards and two touchdowns and has been getting the volume all season with the 6th most targets overall. The aDOT(8.9) is down about 3-4 yards from last season but he has made up for it as he ranks 8th when looking at Air Yards + YAC. With the Falcons allowing more yards to the outside vs. the inside, Tee Higgins is next on my list and has a little deeper aDOT(9.8) and doesn't trail Chase by that much when looking at AY+YAC. Run Back Option: Kyle Pitts as the one weakness of the Bengals' defense has been against the TE(19th...
