Quarterbacks Josh Allen FD 9300 DK 8500 Opponent NYJProj Points FD - 27.95 DK - 27.95 We are going to be spending up at quarterback this week almost for sure. There are just too many good options on the main slate to fade all of the upper tier guys. It’s just too tough. And with that in mind, fading Allen at all this season has been a major problem. He’s the top overall DraftKings scorer on the season despite playing one fewer game than basically all the next-closest guys. The Bills are -13 road favorites against the Jets in Week 9 and the latter does have a great defense this season. But Allen is just too good and the Bills pass too much to think Allen gets scripted down out of value even in a blowout. Kyler Murray FD 8200 DK 7400 Opponent SEAProj Points FD - 24.14 DK - 24.14 Murray is coming off his best fantasy game of the season in Week 8 when he threw for 326 yards and ran for another 36 in the loss to the Vikings. Now he’ll face the Seahawks in a game that has the highest point total of the main slate (50). While Seattle hasn’t been terrible on defense from a DVOA perspective, they do allow the 4th-most opponent plays per game this season, meaning this is a pace-up matchup for Murray and the Cardinals. Having DeAndre Hopkins back in the mix makes this a much more potent offense and Murray running gives him a higher floor. Running Backs Rhamondre Stevenson FD 8000 DK 6200 Opponent INDProj Points FD - 19.71 DK - 22.07 Stevenson has been good all season, but the real bonus has come in the last couple of weeks when he’s become a much bigger part of the passing game. He eight targets in each of the last two weeks and is averaging is averaging 22.3 touches (carries + targets) in the last three weeks. The Patriots are -5.5 home favorites against the Colts who are good against the run, but only and average defense overall. Stevenson is too cheap on DraftKings now for what he is doing in the passing game.

Quarterbacks Geno Smith FD 7000 DK 5800 Opponent NYGProj Points FD - 20.07 DK - 20.07 Geno Smith is QB7 in DraftKings scoring this season and he’s coming at QB8 in price just on this slate. We are still getting him at value prices even though the production has been excellent and pretty consistent. He’s thrown for 1,712 yards, the seventh most in the league,S and has 11 touchdowns to just three interceptions. The Giants for all of their feel-good 5-1 start still have the 29th overall defense and give it up both through the air and on the ground. Geno is coming cheap enough on both sites to start fitting some of the skill position guys we are going to want in cash. Daniel Jones FD 7500 DK 5700 Opponent SEAProj Points FD - 19.81 DK - 19.81 I don’t think I want him on FanDuel where I can get Geno for $500 cheaper, but the DraftKings price is pretty nice and allows for plenty of flexibility elsewhere in the lineup. He’s only thrown six touchdowns on the season, but Jones has gotten it done with his legs, even putting up 107 yards on the ground last week against the Jaguars. He has three games of 68 or more rushing yards this season and has found the end zone three times as well. Again, I want to go cheap at the position this week almost for sure. I actually think you can consider Sam Ehlinger here who is getting the nod over Matt Ryan for the Colts. He is the minimum on DraftKings, has weapons in this offense and ran a ton (a ton) in college. If that’s even part of his game at the NFL level then the floor is high enough to take the risk. Running Backs Saquon Barkley FD 9500 DK 8100 Opponent SEAProj Points FD - 22.66 DK - 24.77 In terms of opportunity, it doesn’t get much safer than Saquon Barkley who is coming off playing 81% of the snaps in Week 7 and is about elite as it gets when it comes to the usage. On the season, his 173 rushing attempts + receiving targets rank number one in the league by 16 over the next-closest guy (Joe Mixon). He’s game script independent when it comes to seeing the...

Quarterbacks Lamar Jackson FD 8800 DK 8000 Opponent CLEProj Points FD - 26.08 DK - 26.08 Through six weeks of the season, Lamar Jackson ranks 3rd overall in DraftKings scoring behind only Josh Allen and Stefan Diggs, who are both off this week. He draws a matchup against the 29th DVOA defense in the Browns who have been bad against both the run and the pass. Both of these work fine for how Lamar scores his points. Though the Browns are bad on D, some of that is mitigated by playing at a slower pace, allowing the 6th-fewest opponent plays from scrimmage this season. But regardless, I think we are still in a fine spot here with Jackson who is averaging 9.33 rushing attempts per game and has been effective in the red zone. Geno Smith FD 6800 DK 5600 Opponent LACProj Points FD - 19.68 DK - 19.68 Geno Smith is QB7 in DraftKings scoring this season and that was even off of a rather inefficient game in Week 6 against the Cardinals in which he only completed 20 of 31 passes for 197 yards. He raised the floor by getting out on the ground and rushing for 48 yards and he’s averaging more than four carries per game so far. This game has the highest total (51) of the main slate with the Seahawks slight underdogs. I like the price on both sites for Smith, but especially on DraftKings if we looking at paying up for running back. Running Backs Joe Mixon FD 7400 DK 7000 Opponent ATLProj Points FD - 17.59 DK - 19.77 Mixon struggled in Week 6 mostly with the Bengals playing from behind most of the game and Cincinnati needing to take to the air. On the season, he’s had elite usage from the running back position and this week is shaping up to be a smash spot. Mixon’s price is down because he’s found the end zone only once this season and hasn’t been all that efficient, averaging just 3.3 yards per carry. But now he’ll face the 29th-ranked defense in the Falcons as a -6 home favorite. This is right where we want our backfield plays and Mixon is coming in at a fantastic value. Josh Jacobs FD 8600 DK 6500 Opponent HOUProj Points FD - 21.92 DK...

Quarterbacks Josh Allen FD 9200 DK 8200 Opponent KCProj Points FD - 28.52 DK - 28.52 We’ve written him up as the top cash game option basically every single week and really every week that’s been correct. In fact, last week was the best yet with Allen going completely to the moon against the Steelers. He finished with a mind-boggling 424 yards and four touchdowns through the air and another 42 on the ground. Oh, and this was in only three quarters because the Bills were crushing Pittsburgh. On the season, Allen has 15 more DraftKings points than the next-closest quarterback. And this time around we could be in a shootout against the Chiefs. There are just too many reasons to play Allen here. Daniel Jones FD 6800 DK 5200 Opponent BALProj Points FD - 19.27 DK - 19.27 While Allen is, far and away, the best play here, there is a case to run Daniel Jones on DraftKings in order to save some money. Jones is coming back across the pond after a big win over the Packers in England and has been able to maintain a solid enough floor from a fantasy perspective this season when healthy. That’s because he’ll run as much as any quarterback out there. His 41 rushing attempts are 4th in the league for quarterbacks and he even missed part of the game in Week 4. The 230 rushing yards rank third at the position. The Ravens rank 14th in defense and 26th against the rush. This could be a higher floor game for Jones and he’s coming cheap on DraftKings. Strongly consider Kyler Murray and Geno Smith in what could be a shootout between the Cardinals and Seahawks. Running Backs Saquon Barkley FD 8800 DK 7700 Opponent BALProj Points FD - 22.38 DK - 24.6 Saquon Barkley ranks second in the league in overall touches this season (carries + receiving targets) with 120 looks combined. He’s just one of the safer plays in the NFL at this point based on the usage, the explosiveness, and just how much the Giants need him on offense. The DraftKings price is simply too low for a guy averaging almost five targets a game and who is facing the 26th-ranked rush defense in the Ravens. Even on FanDuel he’s a relative bargain. While...

Quarterbacks Josh Allen FD 9000 DK 8200 Opponent PITProj Points FD - 28.29 DK - 28.29 In terms of per-game fantasy scoring, there is a class of quarterbacks at the top of the list and then there is everyone else. Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson lead that class this season with Jalen Hurts, who we’ll get to in a second, right behind. Allen has 10 passing touchdowns on the season and has added two rushing touchdowns. He is fourth in quarterback rushing yards and third in passing attempts. He just has such a high floor each and every week because he literally does everything. And in Week 5, the Bills have the highest implied total at 30.5 as -14 home favorites against the Steelers. This is a tough spot to fade Allen in cash games. Jalen Hurts FD 8600 DK 8100 Opponent ARIProj Points FD - 26.78 DK - 26.78 Hurts is third in fantasy scoring this season behind Jackson and Allen and like those two offers a high floor in every game because of how much he will take off and run. The Eagles dealt with bad conditions in Week 4 but things are lining up well this time around even going on the road. They are 5.5 favorites against the Cardinals who rank 29th in DVOA on defense and 28th against the pass. And with only four passing touchdowns on the season in 123 passing attempts, one could make the case that Hurts is running bad in that category. There could be even more room for upside if this game turns into a shootout. Running Backs Dalvin Cook FD 7300 DK 7300 Opponent CHIProj Points FD - 18.11 DK - 19.77 There was some concern about Cook’s shoulder going into the Week 4 game in London for the Vikings. But he ended up playing and carried the ball 20 times on 63% of the Minnesota offensive snaps. Now, he comes into Week 5 in the running back sweet spot as a -7 home favorite against the Bears who rank 24th in the league against the rush this season. Cook has seen a price dip on both sites and is especially a good deal on FanDuel. He hasn’t been a total workhorse back this season, but this could be a smash spot when we are...

Quarterbacks Josh Allen FD 8900 DK 8400 Opponent BALProj Points FD - 27.45 DK - 27.45 There is a group of elite quarterbacks in the league right now that are very tough to fade week in and week out in cash games and that’s the case again here for Week 4. Allen is QB2 in DraftKings scoring behind Lamar Jackson (who he’s playing) and comes in here with the highest team implied total on the week. The Bills are firmly committed to just throwing it all the time and I think people will be going back and forth between which QB to play in this game. It’s worth noting that it sure seems like Lamar is running super hot on touchdowns with 10 passing TDs in just 88 attempts. I’ll take Allen here. Jalen Hurts FD 8600 DK 8200 Opponent JAXProj Points FD - 27.39 DK - 27.39 Meanwhile, Jalen Hurts is QB3 in DraftKings scoring despite having thrown only four touchdowns through the first three weeks. There would seem to be positive touchdown regression coming his way and the Eagles have the second-highest implied total on the week at 27.5 points. His team has scored the second-most points in the NFC and Hurts is second in the league in rushing yards for quarterbacks. And he’s been pretty accurate too, compelling 67% of his passes. The touchdowns are going to come and if they do Hurts might actually be underpriced here. Strongly consider Jared Goff at $5900 on DraftKings. The Lions have scored the second-most points in the league through three weeks and could be in a shootout here against Seattle in a game with a 50 over/under. Running Backs Christian McCaffrey FD 8800 DK 8700 Opponent ARIProj Points FD - 22.79 DK - 25.62 It hasn’t been the greatest start of the season for CMC and the Panthers’ offense, but we are most definitely buying low now. He’s coming under $9K on both sites and gets a matchup against a Cardinals ranked 31st in DVOA on defense through the first three weeks of the season. He’s played 84% of Carolina’s snaps this season and they just haven’t really been in a pace-up matchup, until now. This is a smash spot for McCaffrey who is coming too cheap now that he’s had a few “down” weeks....
