Quarterbacks Lamar Jackson FD 8400 DK 7800 Opponent DETProj Points FD - 27.02 DK - 27.77 Through the first two weeks of the season, Lamar Jackson has the second-most rushing yards in the league behind only Derrick Henry and Joe Mixon. He’s gotten the ground game going early and often and is coming off a huge come-from-behind victory over the Chiefs on Sunday night. The Ravens are likely riding high coming into this one against the Lions and are -8 road favorites. Going into Detroit I’m not as worried about the blowout and the Ravens are likely to continue just sticking with Jackson as the primary option. He’s got such a high floor based on how he scores points and should be the safest cash quarterback on this slate. Daniel Jones FD 7400 DK 5800 Opponent ATLProj Points FD - 21.66 DK - 22.46 Daniel Jones is QB8 on DraftKings through the first two weeks, getting by mostly on his legs. In the first two games, Jones has the second-most rushing yards among quarterbacks, trailing only the aforementioned Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts. He’s gotten slightly more accurate this season and is averaging more yards per attempt as well. He’s facing an Atlanta defense that’s been brutalized on the defensive side of the ball so far this season and the Giants are -3 home favorites in this one. Jones is coming at a really advantageous DraftKings price and I think we can consider him in cash games there. Running Backs Dalvin Cook FD 9500 DK 8400 Opponent SEAProj Points FD - 22.65 DK - 24.81 It’s not a total surprise, but through two weeks Dalvin Cook is 4th overall in usage in 6th overall in total yards from scrimmage. And this included games with the Vikings trailing AND a brief exit in Week 2 with an injury. He is just the guy for Minnesota, and is priced as such. This game has a massive 55.5 total and a thin spread with the Seahawks -2 road favorites. I love Cook’s DraftKings price and think he is a pretty easy play over there considering the potential game script and how the Vikings use him in the offense. It’s a little closer on FanDuel, but still think you can pay all the up over there. Darrell Henderson Jr. FD 6300 DK 5900...
Injury analysis for Week 2 of NFL DFS on FanDuel and DraftKings

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 and MLB - for the same low price. Get started now! START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Quarterbacks There isn’t much in the way of injury news on the quarterback front. Marcus Mariota is out for the Raiders which is only notable because he came in an played a RPO package in the first game. But that was one snap he was injured. Otherwise, the situations across the league remain relatively similar. Running Backs Josh Jacobs FD 6500 DK 6000 Opponent PITProj Points FD - 8.79 DK - 9.7 Friday will determine a lot about Jacobs’ availability for Sunday. He hasn’t practiced all week after being questionable leading into last Monday’s game. That was for an illness and this is for a myriad of other injuries so we will have to see. He and Kenyan Drake basically split snaps in Week 1 (Jacobs - 45, Drake - 41) and would do so again if both were active. But if Jacobs sat we would have to give Drake a significant boost. With Jalen Richard on IR it would be Peyton Barber likely spelling Drake in this scenario. This is a situation we will have to monitor. Update: Jacobs has been ruled out. Drake could see a lot of the workload here. Elijah Mitchell FD 5800 DK 5000 Opponent PHIProj Points FD - 11.85 DK - 11.89 Elijah Mitchell isn’t injured, but Raheem Mostert is with the latter having been lost for the season. The latter made it all of two carries before leaving the Week 1 game and then having season-ending knee surgery this week. What a blow. Mitchell picked up 19 carries and 69% of the offensive snaps with Mostert out though remember that Trey Sermon has been inactive going into the game. The 49ers have shown a willingness to RBBC this bad boy so I am only lukewarm on Mitchell going into this game. The 49ers also picked up Trenton Cannon during the week. Zack Moss FD 5200 DK 4500 Opponent MIAProj Points FD - 0 DK - 0 Zack Moss was a surprise inactive for Week 1, leaving the backfield duties to Devin Singletary and Matt Breida. Singletary took 75% of the team’s offensive snaps with a 19% usage rate (carries + targets). He should be in line for something similar with Moss looking likely to sit this one again. Miami isn’t a great matchup because of the pace, but the Bills still have a...

That right, after a long one-week break we are back kicking off the 2021-22 season a trip to Napa, California for the Fortinet Championship. You may recognize the event more by its former name, the Safeway Open, but the course is the same and has hosted the event since the 2014-15 season. While we have a fairly weak field overall, it is headlined by world #1 Jon Rahm who is also joined by Hideki Matsuyama(#17), Webb Simpson(#22), and Kevin Na(#25), all of whom rank Top 25 in the world golf rankings. Also in the field this week is Will Zalatoris who finished his Korn Ferry Tour career ranked #119th in the world and worked his way all the way inside the Top 30 by the end of the season. Those players will take on the North course at Silverado Resort & Spa which is a Par 72 setup that is listed at 7,123 yards on the scorecard. It is a tree-lined course and while it is one of the shortest on Tour, it has its challenges off the tee with the trees, doglegs, bunkering, and forces positioning much more than distance. I say positioning and not accuracy as we have seen one of the lowest fairway accuracy averages on Tour yet we see one of the highest rates in terms of greens in regulation. This is because the rough is not very penal meaning hitting the fairway isn't crucial(obviously an advantage) but if missing you...

With all four major championships, the Olympic event, and the WGC events out of the way, the FedEx Cup Playoffs are now the center of attention. Before the three-event playoff begins there is one more opportunity for those outside the Top 125 to get in and that takes the Tour to Sedgefield Country Club for the Wyndham Championship. With so many of the big names and top players in the world coming off busy summer schedules and already locked into the playoffs, we have a somewhat weaker field this week. The narrative is strong for those around the cutline so let's take a look at a few players right around the bubble: 123rd - Patrick Rodgers 124th - matt Kuchar 125th - Bo Hoag 126th - Scott Piercy 127th - Nate Lashley From a DFS perspective, this event is a birdie fest with a winning score of -21 or lower in five straight years. In terms of distance(7,131 yards), the course is on the shorter side of things and like last week has a lack of straight holes which often forces placement and accuracy off the tee which is why we see a lot of less-than-driver. Looking at past leaderboards and correlation data, it shows that accuracy is much more important than distance this week. Hitting a ton of greens isn't necessarily going to get it done this week either. Sedgefield CC has one of the highest GIR rates on Tour year in and year out so I will be looking at not only Strokes Gained: Approach but also Fairway Proximity, mid-iron Proximity(125-150 & 150-175), and overall Proximity. Then it will come down to who has the hottest putter. The Course Sedgefield Country Club Par 70 - 7,131 Yards Greens - Bermuda Previous Five Winners 2020 - Jim Herman(-21) 2019 - J.T.

The Olympics once again gave us another entertaining event and saw American Xander Schauffele stand atop the podium on Sunday afternoon. Alongside him were two surprise medalists in Rory Sabbatini(Silver) and C.T. Pan(Bronze) and the Bronze even went down to a three-player playoff. In that playoff was Rory McIlroy who was not at all interested in the Olympics in 2016 and wasn't overly excited prior to this year. That tune changed as he went through the event and I am sure he will be part of the Irish team in 2024. With the Olympics in the rearview mirror, the PGA Tour now gets back to its regularly scheduled programming with just two events left until the 2021 playoffs. Technically three with the alternate Barracuda Championship this week but for DFS purposes and this article, we will be concentrating on the World Golf Championship event. This marks the third year TPC Southwind has hosted a WGC event and before that from 1989 to 2018, it hosted the St. Jude Classic which was a full field event. That is the big difference this week as this will be a no-cut event with a limited field of 66 invited golfers. With World #1 Jon Rahm still out with Covid and Christiaan Bezuidenhout skipping the event, we have a loaded field with 48 of the Top 50 players in the world teeing it up at TPC Southwind in Memphis. The course is a Par 70 that is listed at 7,237 yards on the scorecard and has been ranked 14th and 25th in the two year it has been used for the WGC and averaged as a Top 15 hardest course on Tour as the St. Jude Classic. Let's take a look at the scorecard, previous winners, and then dig into some stats. The Course TPC Southwind Par 70 -...

After an extra year of waiting, the Olympics are back and with it the second running of the golf event. It was Justin Rose capturing the Gold Medal in Rio de Janeiro in 2016 with Henrik Stenson and Matt Kuchar taking home the Silver and Bronze medals respectively. Neither of those players made the trip this time around but we once again have a strong 60-player field led by OPEN Champion, Collin Morikawa. The event will run like any no-cut event where all players in the field get four rounds to showcase their skills with the three lowest scores reaching the podium for the medal ceremony on Sunday afternoon(Saturday evening on North America). The event will be hosted at the East Course at the Kasumigaseki Country Club which is a Par 71 listed at 7,466 yards on the scorecard. It is a beautiful tree-lined course that should challenge the field with doglegs going both ways and a ton of deep bunkers scattered in key landing areas and all around the greens. The good news for golfers, is that the fairways look wider than the average PGA Tour course and with it's length, should cater a bit to the bombers in the field. From there, the golfers will have mid to long iron approaches into some very large, undulated greens. With that, I will factor in Proximity when breaking down Strokes Gained: Approach and then also factoring some three-putt avoidance. For lineup construction, keep in mind that no-cut events everyone gets four rounds. In the value ranges, this means looking for players who can make birdies in bunches rather than the usual "safe"-ish play that we are happy to get a made cut from on normal weeks. With a smaller field the ownership levels will rise as well for the top guys and...
