Quarterbacks Patrick Mahomes FD 9100 DK 8100 Opponent HOUProj Points FD - 27.82 DK - 27.82 The Chiefs are huge favorites here against the Texans, and for good reason. Though Houston put up a valiant effort against the Cowboys last week, this is still one of the worst teams in the league. And KC should be able to step on the gas early and often. They have, as a team, run the ball a bit more of late with Pacheco which is a concern with Mahomes ceiling if the game starts getting out of hand, but he’s a tough fade in this matchup considering he has 400+ more passing yards than the next-closest guy and his 33 touchdowns are six more than the next-closest. Jalen Hurts FD 9000 DK 8200 Opponent CHIProj Points FD - 26.47 DK - 26.47 If you’re not going to play the runner up in the MVP odds right now, you might as well play the favorite. That’s kind of where we are with the quarterback situation on this slate, and in some ways, Hurts is in an even better spot than Mahomes. He’s playing the Bears who have the leagues worst defensive DVOA on the season, coming in terrible against both the run and the pass. This is a smash spot for Hurts whose 10 rushing touchdowns ranks first among quarterbacks. Plus he has a 22:3 TD: INT rate on the season, making him just about as efficient as it gets for a quarterback. It’s a close call between these two QBs but I do think you should play one of them in cash. Running Backs Miles Sanders FD 7800 DK 6500 Opponent CHIProj Points FD - 16.52 DK - 17.63 There’s definitely a world where we are just stacking a couple of the best teams in cash and calling it a day. Miles Sanders helps some with that if you want to lean on the Eagles’ running attack to get you all the way home. Somewhat quietly, Sanders is fifth in the league in rushing yards on the season and his 11 rushing touchdowns are tied for third in the league. The price on both sites is right in range of acceptable and like we said with Hurts, the matchup against the Bears is about...

Justin Jefferson and Amon-Ra St. Brown top the Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 14 - Main Slate 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 and MLB - for the same low price. Get started now! START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Quarterbacks Josh Allen FD 8700 DK 8300 Opponent NYJProj Points FD - 25.49 DK - 25.49 It’s tough to know what to do with Josh Allen right now. He injured his arm a few weeks ago and the last three games, from a fantasy perspective, have been a bit rough. In that stretch, he’s averaged just 224 yards passing per game. And the Bills have made a bit more of a commitment to the run. But that’s also meant a price drop for the QB and this is still the second-highest fantasy-scoring player on DraftKings overall this season. The matchup against the Jets isn’t ideal but the Bills are -9.5 favorites at home and would really like to win this game. I think I am fine running him on the past performance and the upside, but recognize that there is some risk here. Joe Burrow FD 8300 DK 7000 Opponent CLEProj Points FD - 23.06 DK - 23.06 Burrow is coming a touch cheaper than the top-tier quarterback group this week and that could really work out to our advantage in this game against the Browns. This one has the second-highest over/under of the entire slate and Bengals are favored against Deshaun Watson and company. With Ja'Marr Chase returning last week and Joe Mixon back this week, the Bengals have a full complement of weapons and Burrow has a very high floor with about as high an upside of anyone in the game. Cleveland is the 27th-ranked defense in football this season, though they are worse against the run than the pass. Regardless, I like Burrow here especially if Cincy is going to keep its foot on the gas. Jared Goff FD 7100 DK 5600 Opponent MINProj Points FD - 18.9 DK - 18.9 The 5-7 Lions are -1 favorites at home against the 10-2 Vikings and the latter doesn’t have any major injuries. We live in weird and wild times. Goff has real upside if this game gets into a shootout and is coming cheap enough on DraftKings to live with the fact that he doesn’t get out and run really at all. He’ll need to be a high-volume passer which is a bit risky, especially if the Lions get out to a lead here. But he...

Justin Herbert And Amon-Ra St. Brown top the Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 13 - Main Slate 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 and MLB - for the same low price. Get started now! START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Quarterbacks Justin Herbert FD 8100 DK 7200 Opponent LVProj Points FD - 23.75 DK - 23.75 There are going to be a couple of games on the main slate that we’ll be almost exclusively targeting and this is one of them. Chargers and Raiders has a 50.5 over/under, the third highest of the slate and Justin Herbert is gifted the opportunity to face the worst pass defense in the league. Las Vegas hasn’t been able to stop anyone in this department all season and are almost definitely going to have their hands full against a Chargers team that throws the ball the second-most in the NFL. Herbert has such a high floor in this game especially if it turns into an up-and-down affair. He’s in play on both sites, but especially FanDuel. Trevor Lawrence FD 7500 DK 5900 Opponent DETProj Points FD - 20.23 DK - 20.23 Trevor Lawrence is coming cheaper on DraftKings, a spot we might end up using him for cash this week. He’s got a great matchup against the Lions who rank 24th in DVOA defense and allow the third-most opponents’ plays per game on the season. That’s a great meeting point when trying to get a high floor play at a lower cost. Lawrence has had to throw a bit more over the last couple of weeks in games against the Ravens and Chiefs, and that could be the case again if this turns into a shootout with Detroit. The 51.5 over/under is the second-highest of the main slate and we could see plenty of exposure to this game. Lawrence runs just enough (3.5 times a game) to keep the floor higher in that respect. Of course, strongly consider Patrick Mahomes whose Chiefs have the highest implied total of the slate. Jared Goff makes for a DraftKings consideration at just $5100. Running Backs Josh Jacobs FD 9500 DK 7900 Opponent LACProj Points FD - 27.08 DK - 29.29 Jacobs is an interesting case this week for cash. On the one hand, with his usage he’s nearly a lock at these prices, even on FanDuel where he’s getting close to $10K. But there’s also the fact that he’s dealing with some injuries and isn’t going to practice at all before Sunday. That could leave...

Top-Tier Wide Receivers Top the Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 12 - Main Slate 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 and MLB - for the same low price. Get started now! START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Quarterbacks Lamar Jackson FD 8200 DK 8000 Opponent JAXProj Points FD - 23.87 DK - 23.87 While Lamar Jackson has been relatively disappointing over the last couple of weeks, I still think we can go back to him in cash on FanDuel on this slate. The passing efficiency has not been there, but he’s still running 10+ times a game which is going to give him about as high a floor a quarterback can have these days. The Jaguars rank 26th in DVOA defense on the season and 31st against the pass. This could be a smash spot for Jackson who should see plenty of volume and has been running a bit bad on the touchdowns (both running and throwing) over the last few games. Geno Smith FD 7600 DK 6000 Opponent LVProj Points FD - 21.79 DK - 21.79 With Thanksgiving week reducing the number of games we have on the main slate, we are going to have to take value where it comes. Geno Smith is in an excellent spot here coming off a bye and facing one of the worst defenses in football. The Raiders rank 32nd overall in defensive DVOA and also dead-last against the pass. That’s a good starting point for Geno who has 2+ touchdown passes in eight of his ten games this season and a 17:4 TD:INT rate on the season. He’s also gotten out in the run game as well, maintaining a high fantasy floor throughout. The DraftKings price is way too low here for the floor and upside and I think he could be a popular start there. Running Backs Austin Ekeler FD 8800 DK 8500 Opponent ARIProj Points FD - 21.57 DK - 25.19 Mike Williams could miss this game and we already know that Ekeler is featured so prominently in the passing game that his floor in full PPR is just so high. He ranks 10th overall in targets on the season, a crazy stat for a running back and is lapping the field at the position in terms of passing down work. His 206 total touches are fifth in the NFL as well and the volume here should give him a very high floor against a Cardinals team ranked in the bottom third of the league against both the...

Bears and Giants Highlight the Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 11 - Main Slate 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 and MLB - for the same low price. Get started now! START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Quarterbacks Justin Fields FD 8700 DK 7600 Opponent ATLProj Points FD - 24.2 DK - 24.2 Fields has just been ridiculous over the last couple of weeks with a combined 325 rushing yards which would be great for a RB1 and is basically unheard of for a quarterback. Fields is now sixth in the NFL in rushing yards and has also gotten into the end zone six times with his legs which is tied for seventh. In Week 11 he’ll get the Falcons who rank 30th in DVOA defense and 25th against the run. It’s another smash spot for Fields who has been as good as really any QB ever in terms of fantasy over the last couple. On DraftKings, he’s still coming a bit too cheap considering the safety you get with the running attempts. Lamar Jackson FD 8400 DK 8400 Opponent CARProj Points FD - 26.86 DK - 26.86 Lamar Jackson is actually coming a bit cheaper than Fields on FanDuel and that is where we are likely going to play the Ravens’ quarterback. He’s coming off the bye fully rested and now gets to face off against a Carolina team ranked 22nd against the run and 27th against the pass. Plus, the Panthers are tied for most opponent plays from scrimmage this season meaning it’s a pace-up matchup for Lamar. The Ravens did lean a lot on Kenyan Drake in Week 9 and will get Gus Edwards back, so they could just grind this game away, but it’s tough to fade Lamar Jackson as one of the highest fantasy floor quarterbacks out there. Daniel Jones FD 7800 DK 5700 Opponent DETProj Points FD - 21.09 DK - 21.09 I do think there’s a case to play Danny Dimes on DraftKings where he’s only $5700. The Lions are the 26th-ranked defense and equally bad against the pass and the run. Jones has been able to get it done with his legs and as you’ll see in a second, Saquon Barkley is in a smash spot. Pairing them together in a great matchup is a high-floor approach in cash games. Running Backs Saquon Barkley FD 9700 DK 8900 Opponent DETProj Points FD - 26.88 DK - 29.31 Saquon Barkley carried the ball a ridiculous 35 times in Week 10 against...

Justin Fields and Saquon Barkley Highlight the Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 10 - Main Slate 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 and MLB - for the same low price. Get started now! START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Quarterbacks Justin Fields FD 8300 DK 6500 Opponent DETProj Points FD - 23.64 DK - 23.64 Fields is coming off a slate-breaking, chalky week in which he completely smashed (from a fantasy perspective) in his game against the Dolphins. He wasn’t all that efficient through the air, going only 17 of 28 for 123 yards. But he threw for three touchdowns. It was on the ground that he made it, running for 178 yards and scampering for another touchdown. He now has 602 rushing yards on the season, good for second among quarterbacks and ninth overall in the league. Now, he’ll play a Lions’ team ranked 26th on defense and allowing the 7th-most opponent plays per game. This is another smash spot for Fields and he will be a very popular play on DraftKings once again. Daniel Jones FD 7500 DK 5700 Opponent HOUProj Points FD - 21.04 DK - 21.04 Though Fields will drive a lot of ownership in Week 10, it’s worth checking in on Daniel Jones who is coming almost $1K cheaper on both sites and has considerable upside as well. He’s coming off a bye week and will play the Texans who allow the third-most opponent plays per game and have the 30th-ranked defense. The Giants are -6.5 home favorites and Jones has done well on the ground, ranking 4th overall in QB rushing yards on the season. He has a higher floor in this game and you don’t have to break the bank to get him in lineups. Running Backs Saquon Barkley FD 9500 DK 8600 Opponent HOUProj Points FD - 25.07 DK - 27.48 It could make sense to stack Daniel Jones and Saquon Barkley in cash this week seeing as how they draw one of the best matchups around in the Texans and are fully rested after the bye. Barkley’s 24.75 rushing attempts + receiving targets per game is second-most in the league after only Derek Henry and he should get a steady diet of looks against a Houston team ranked dead last in the league against the rush. With the quarterback position not coming prohibitively expensive, Saquon should be one of the highest-owned plays on the slate especially after Christian McCaffrey and the 49ers got flexed to the night game. Josh...
