START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW!   There are a number of unknown factors that make it impossible to fully project what cash game lineups will look like for week 8, but there is still quite a bit to talk about here. Quarterback looks like it's going to come down to a decision between Russell Wilson and some cheap options in Ryan Tannehill and Derek Carr. If we wind up getting cheap options at other plays (like running back) we will wind up paying up. If we don't, we might need to go cheaper this week. Running back could go in any number of directions this week. Can we afford Derrick Henry? Perhaps, if we can get punt plays like Carlos Hyde going this week. There are several known question marks this week, with the status of Joe Mixon, Dalvin Cook, Aaron Jones, Chris Carson, and even Carlos Hyde up in the air. This is a position we'll need to revisit later in the week. Wide receiver has its own interesting discussions. What do we make of Tyler Lockett's 20 target week? How about Davante Adams' return to greatness? Can we roll it back with Marquez Callaway if Michael Thomas misses another game? Is Keenan Allen an easy play in spite of his ongoing touchdown issues? The guys break all this down, and more. Tight end is a mess, as usual, and we're hoping to be able to pay up for George Kittle. That will likely depend on getting cheap plays elsewhere, though, so for now we're standing by. Love the DFSR podcast? Go ahead and subscribe and listen wherever you get your daily podcasts.

Injury analysis for week 7 of NFL DFS on FanDuel and DraftKings Welcome to our weekly injury analysis article! It's an odd week with injuries, with a number of interesting quarterback situations leading things off. Let's have a look. Now’s your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NFL and MLB optimizers and our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Quarterback Sam Darnold FD 6700 DK 5000 Opponent BUF Proj Points FD - 15.66 DK - 16.72 Sam Darnold appears to be poised to return to action after missing two weeks with a shoulder injury. He's not likely to be in any of my lineups in a tough match-up with the Bills, but his return has to mean good things for Jamison Crowder. We were recommending Crowder as a cash game play on FanDuel and DraftKings when we thought Flacco was going to be under center, and we like the play even more if Darnold returns. Right now Gase says Darnold will be out there barring any setbacks, so let's hope we've seen the last of playing pass-catchers that are reliant on Joe Flacco. Running Back Aaron Jones FD 8500 DK 7200 Opponent HOU Proj Points FD - 19.21 DK - 21.33 Jones was a late addition to the injury report after straining his calf on Thursday, and is officially listed as questionable after missing practice on Friday. If he were to sit, Jamaal Williams would be a fantastic cash game play at a great price in a great match-up with the Texans. Joe Mixon FD 7400 DK 6300 Opponent CLE Proj Points FD - 0 DK - 0 Mixon has been ruled out for this weekend's game against the Browns, leaving us the chance to play Gio Bernard at sub $5k on FanDuel. He's a must play for me in any format, and should be the highest owned running back on FanDuel barring some strange news surfacing. Kareem Hunt FD 7100 DK 6800 Opponent CIN Proj Points FD - 17.58 DK - 19.22 Hunt has been limited in practice this week, but it appears to be nothing to be concerned about at this point. He is in cash game consideration for us in a nice match-up with the Bengals. Raheem Mostert FD 6500 DK 6500 Opponent NE Proj Points FD - 0 DK - 0 Moster was ruled out for this Sunday's game against the Patriots, and while we were intrigued by Jerick McKinnon earlier this season in a similar situation, we're sort of off it this week. Last week McKinnon out-snapped Jamychal Hasty 32%-21%, leading us to believe that we're looking...

Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! James and Doug are back to discuss every game on the main slate of NFL DFS games on FanDuel and DraftKings. While some positions are looking chalky, there are a number of interesting tidbits to discuss this week. The greatest discussion centers around the running back options this week. Each of the big-ticket guys has their own question marks - whether it's Zeke's terrible week 6, Alvin Kamara's role with the return of Michael Thomas, or Derrick Henry's tough match-up with Pittsburgh, things are looking fairly difficult. We also have some potentially intriguing mid-range options, with Clyde Edwards-Helaire far too cheap if Le'Veon Bell doesn't arrive, Kareem Hunt back in a good situation, and Joe Mixon potentially missing this one. There are also cheap plays people could target, like Kenyan Drake or DeAndre Swift. For big tournaments, it seems like we could go in any number of directions. Wide receiver has plenty of questions of its own. Should we be thinking about expensive options in big tournaments, even if we can't play them in cash? We might have buy low opportunities on Davante Adams or DeAndre Hopkins, for instance. There are also some guys whose stock might be too expensive. Can we go back to the Julio Jones well after one big week? Can we keep buying on the way up for guys like Chase Claypool or DK Metcalf, whose prices are on the rise based mostly on touchdown equity? All in all, there is a ton to discuss, so this isn't a podcast you're going to want to miss. Love the DFSR podcast? Go ahead and subscribe and listen wherever you get your daily podcasts.

Now’s your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NFL, NHL and NBA optimizers and our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Doug and James return with an early look at cash games for week 7. While we aren't staring down the barrel of a lot of obvious uncertainty this week, there is still plenty to think about. Quarterback is looking moderately straightforward, with Deshaun Watson getting cheaper while continuing to perform at a top level. On DraftKings the DFSR system is picking out some cheaper options, with Joe Burrow surfacing as an interesting option against the Browns this week. Running back is where the real questions start to surface, with the system wanting to play an expensive option, but not knowing which one. Kamara would be a great play if Thomas sits, but Thomas might return. Zeke would be a top option if he were guaranteed all the carries, but he got benched last week after having fumbling issues. Henry would be the best guy if his match-up were better, but he's going up against a meat grinder in the Steelers. And there are a plethora of mid-range options that look similar as well. Wide receiver continues to be where we're finding value, with Keenan Allen looking like a must play now that he's fully healthy again. The guys also discuss cheaper options like Brandin Cooks, Robby Anderson, and Jamison Crowder - breaking down the respective pros and cons of each. Tight end is a conundrum this week. If everyone is healthy, George Kittle might be a must-play even at a moderately high price tag. If opportunity opens up for Darren Fells or Anthony Firkser, either could be cash game viable this week as well. Love the DFSR podcast?

Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 7 Want access to the projections that power these picks? For a limited time we're offering a free one week trial to all the sports that we cover - that's optimal lineups for NFL, NBA, NHL, and MLB - for the same low price. Get started now! START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Quarterbacks Deshaun Watson FD 8000 DK 6800 Opponent GBProj Points FD - 22.44 DK - 23.22 Bill O’Brien was fired after Week 4 and that move has had a nearly 1:1 effect on unlocking Watson’s fantasy potential similar to what we saw last season. In the last two games, since the firing, Watson has thrown for 359 and 335 yards respectively while also putting up a combined 51 yards on the ground. He also has seven passing touchdowns in that stretch and is the second-best fantasy quarterback over the last two weeks behind only Ryan Tannehill. The price hasn’t come up enough for the production and this week he faces a sneaky-bad defensive team in the Packers. They rank 30th in DVOA and 25th against the pass. We ran out Watson in cash last week at low ownership to great results. Here’s to running it back this week. Justin Herbert FD 7500 DK 6400 Opponent JAXProj Points FD - 20.27 DK - 21.26 The Jaguars have been the league’s worst defense against the pass this season and little changed after last week. Matthew Stafford didn’t put up huge numbers mostly because he didn’t need to. The game was in hand by halftime with the Lions up by two scores and things rolled downhill afterward. This week we get to take the rookie Herbert against this atrocious defense and it won’t cost all that much for the pleasure. Though he’s 0-4 as a starter, Herbert has still been efficient through the air with a 69% completion percentage and 9:3 TD:INT rate. He’s averaging nearly 300 passing yards per game and has even gotten out and run with four rushing attempts and 14 rushing yards per game. The price is excellent on both sites and even with only four games under his belt, this is still a cash game spot for the rookie. Joe Burrow FD 7100 DK 5500 Opponent CLEProj Points FD - 19.48 DK - 20.49 Kyle Allen FD 6700 DK 5200 Opponent DALProj Points FD - 15.01 DK - 15.79 On DraftKings, where the pricing is tighter, it can often make a lot of sense to really spend down on more speculative quarterbacks in advantageous matchups. That’s the case with these two this week. Burrow comes in as a DraftKings play where he’s QB18 in...
