We've got whole games in jeopardy, big stars with injury tags, and a number of teams with incredibly unusual starts to the season. God, it's great to have sports in our lives again. In this week's game by game breakdown the guys discuss how this week is shaping up. Is there any running back value to be had here? Can we trust Kareem Hunt given what we saw from D'Ernest Johnson last week? Will Damien Harris continue to shoulder most of the carries for New England? Or are we better off playing it safe with the likes of Mike Davis and James Conner? There's a lot to discuss there. Wide receiver poses challenges of its own. The guys were bullish on Terry McLaurin in the cash game podcast yesterday, but with Kyle Allen taking over as his QB do they feel the same way? Will the change in coaching staff in Houston be good or bad for the Texans' offense in the near term? What on Earth can we make of the Falcons' receiving corps after what we saw last week? The position is sort of a mess. Tight end adds a few question marks too, with Kittle potentially getting Jimmy G back (is that good or bad?) and likely being in a different game script this week as well. With all these question marks, this isn't a podcast you'll want to miss. Enjoy! Love the DFSR podcast? Go ahead and subscribe and listen wherever you get your daily podcasts.

DFS NFL Podcast - Week 5 Cash Games for DraftKings and FanDuel It's time for the Week 5 cash game DFS NFL Podcast with the guys breaking down every position for your cash game needs on FanDuel and DraftKings.

Week 5 is here, and Doug and James are back to break down their cash game plays on DraftKings and FanDuel. With the league swirling with uncertainty surrounding Covid-19, we should understand that these are preliminary looks at cash game selections. That being said, we do have a number of good options this week. Quarterback looks to be a position we are going to pay up at again, with the usual suspects all looking like great plays in good match-ups. The guys discuss whether we can trust Dak's production given the wild game scripts the Cowboys have played, whether we can take a little savings and play Deshaun Watson, or even turn to Teddy Bridgewater on DraftKings. Running back features a few interesting cheaper options in Mike Davis, Kareem Hunt, and Jerick McKinnon, with some nice expensive options in Ezekiel Elliott and Derrick Henry (if the Titans play, of course). Wide receiver was more of a mixed bag, with Amari Cooper ($7,800 on FD) being the only expensive wide receiver entering into consideration. It looks like another week where we'll fill out our cash game rosters with cheaper or midrange options like Robby Anderson or Terry McLaurin. Tight end looks to be a one man show this week, with George Kittle feeling a heck of a lot safer than the rest of the cheaper options. There's a chance we pivot to Jonnu Smith if the Titans actually play, but for now it looks like the rare week where we'll be paying up at tight end. Love the DFSR podcast?

Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 5 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 Dak Prescott FD 8700 DK 7400 Opponent NYG Proj Points FD - 25.86 DK - 26.71 The Cowboys' season is getting a little out of hand at this point. They are 1-3 to start the year despite scoring the second-most points in the league through four weeks. They’ve had to get into shootouts with the defense allowing, by far, the most points in the league at 146. Some of that is poor play, some is ill-timed turnovers. But overall it’s been a mess for Dallas. I was on record before Week 4 that Dak’s passing attempts per game were unsustainable. Whoops. He chucked up 58 on Sunday for 502 yards, four touchdowns and a loss. They come in Sunday as -9 favorites against the Giants in what should be another smash spot for the offense. Again, it doesn't seem like this kind of volume can continue, but it's also getting tougher to bet against it with each passing week. Dak needs to be at, or near, the top of the list simply because the volume is just out of this world. Deshaun Watson FD 7900 DK 6900 Opponent JAX Proj Points FD - 23.14 DK - 23.92 On the one hand, Watson has been pretty bad to start the season, losing his first four games with a 2:1 TD:INT rate. He's also barely getting involved at all on the ground with only 17 total rushing yards. And now the Texans have fired Bill O’Brien. So it’s been kind of a dumpster fire. But they did have a very tough schedule through the first quarter of the season and now get their easiest matchup yet. The Jaguars are the 29th-ranked defense, but at dead last against the pass according to DVOA. They are allowing 8.4 yards per pass attempt (third-worst) and a 77% opponent completion percentage which is the highest in the league. If Watson is going to turn it around, this is the game. He’s priced a bit lower because of the early season returns and this could be the time to buy low. Teddy Bridgewater FD 7100 DK 5900 Opponent ATL Proj Points FD - 18.43 DK - 19.09 Bridgewater continues to look more comfortable under center in his first year with the Panthers, guiding the team to wins in back-to-back weeks. In fact,...

Injury analysis for week 4 of NFL DFS on FanDuel and DraftKings Welcome to our weekly injury analysis article! There are a ton of relevant injuries this week, so let's cut right to the chase. You can also check out our Week 4 cash game plays. 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! Running Back Chris Carson FD 7900 DK 6300 Opponent MIA Proj Points FD - 8.3 DK - 9.75 Carson was limited in practice again on Thursday with a first degree knee sprain - an injury that usually requires a 1-2 week timetable for recovery. If he were to sit, it would open up a lot of opportunity for a team that's never been shy about running the ball. The problem is that the presumed heir to the RB1 carries, Carlos Hyde, has also been limited in practice this week. If both Hyde and Carson were to sit you'd be look at a very chalky Travis Homer as a likely three down back in Seattle. He'd be a cash game lock in a fantastic match-up with Miami. Leonard Fournette FD 5500 DK 5600 Opponent LAC Proj Points FD - 2.99 DK - 3.73 Our system is now very bearish on Fournette's chances of playing on Sunday after Bruce Arians called it a "stretch" to think about him playing. If he winds up being out, it becomes a huge boon to Ronald Jones Jr.'s fantasy stock. The Bucs are already likely to be without Chris Godwin and Scotty Miller this week, and they are running low on ways to reliably approach short yardage situation. Jones had 17 opportunities (carries plus targets) last week, and given that the Bucs are 7.5 point favorites against the Chargers you'd figure that he'll be heavily involved here. I'd be comfortable with him in cash games if Fournette were ruled out. Kareem Hunt FD 5900 DK 6200 Opponent DAL Proj Points FD - 12.04 DK - 13.53 This is a sneakier one to keep an eye on. Hunt has missed two straight practices with a groin injury, and his absence could turn Nick Chubb into a three down back. I'm not sure this is where you want to spend up for cash game purposes even if Hunt is out of the picture, but taking carries away from a very talented back-up can only help Chubb's big tournament prospects. Sony Michel FD 5600 DK 4600 Opponent KC Proj Points FD - 9.23 DK - 10.34 Michel is cruising toward a questionable tag for Sunday's...

DFS NFL Podcast - Week 4 Game by Game Breakdown DraftKings and FanDuel Welcome to our game by game breakdown for week four, where James Davis and Doug Norrie break down every game on the main slate for FanDuel and DraftKings for week 4. Looking for our Week 4 cash game DFS NFL Podcast? Follow the link and take a listen! 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! With the Steelers and Titans game getting postponed, we have fewer games to work with than we initially thought, but there are still plenty of intriguing DFS options available for us this week. With Henry getting bumped off the main slate and Michael Thomas potentially returning to cut into Alvin Kamara's targets, running back is starting to look pretty thin all of a sudden. Do we spend all the way up for Zeke? Can we get by with Josh Jacobs as an underdog against the Bills? What about some cheaper options in good match-ups, like Joe Mixon, or Darrell Henderson Jr.? It's never fun to have big question marks at running back, and the guys wade through the options in each game. Wide receiver offers us a ton of value across the board, with excellent high priced options like DeAndre Hopkins, all the way down to great cheap options like Will Fuller V or Tyler Boyd. Heck, we even have a well fleshed out mid-range of wide receiver options with the resurgence of Keenan Allen and Allen Robinson. For that reason, we'll likely be filling our wide receiver slot last based on where we need to pay up elsewhere. All in all week 4 is shaping up to be another barn burner, so be sure to turn in and hear the DFSR team's thoughts on each game for the NFL DFS main slate! Love the DFSR podcast?
