DFS NFL Podcast – Week 2 Cash Games for DraftKings and FanDuel 9/16/20
DFS NFL Podcast - Week 2 Cash Games for DraftKings and FanDuel 9/16/20 It's time for the Week 2 cash game DFS NFL Podcast with the guys breaking down every position.

The DFSR team is back with their cash game picks for week two of NFL DFS on FanDuel and DraftKings. It's a nice and full main slate of games with plenty of great options at every position, so this week looks like one where we're trying to find the cream of the crop rather than settling for merely good plays. Except for tight end. Screw tight end. The guys agree that Kyler Murray is the chalk QB option out of the gate, but nod to a few other options that are at least worth consideration. At running back there are two excellent $8,000+ options in Derrick Henry and Clyde Edwards-Helaire, with some cheap options to fill things out. Wide receiver is very deep, with great options across multiple price points. The big question there will surround where we want to allocate our funds. Tight end is a disaster as usual, where the expensive guys are too expensive and the cheap guys are very risky.

Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 2
Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 2 Week 1 is in the books, with offenses looking a lot crisper than defenses after a weird preseason. Will week 2 look similarly? Let's take a look at our position by position picks to find out. 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!

Quarterbacks Kyler Murray FD 8000 DK 6100 Opponent WASProj Points FD - 21.97 DK - 22.72 The Cardinals pulled off one of the upsets of Week 1 with a win over the defending NFC champs, the San Francisco 49ers. And Murray was every bit as good as what the Cardinals expected when they drafted him number one overall. He completed 26-40 passes for 230 yards while tacking on another 91 yards on the ground on 13 attempts. That led all quarterbacks on the ground on Sunday and is coming off a season in which he was second overall in QB rushing yards. This is part of his game and it gives him such a high floor any given week. The Washington front seven is good and they’re coming off a surprise win of their own over the Eagles, but the Cards have the fourth-highest implied total on the main slate at 26.75. And, somehow, Murray is the 11th-most expensive quarterback on DraftKings. That’s simply too low. It’s closer on FanDuel where he’s 4th most expensive at $8K. But in terms of projection and overall tools, he’s just a fantastic cash game play for Week 2. Dak Prescott FD 8300 DK 6800 Opponent ATLProj Points FD - 21.68 DK - 22.4Yup, I know it was a rough scene in Week 1 for Dak and the Cowboys with a loss to the Rams. Dak was mediocre if unimpressive considering the hype coming in around him and Dallas this season. But one week should not a complete overreaction make and I love where we are getting him going into Week 2. Atlanta is coming off an opening game in which Russell Wilson carved them up for an 89% completion percentage, 322 yards, four touchdowns while tacking on 29 rushing yards. It looked incredibly easy for Wilson against a team that ranked in the bottom third of passing defenses last season. Dak still has fantastic weapons in the WR corps and there’s reason to expect the Cowboys try to light it up early in their first home game after a down week. Matthew Stafford...

There is a lot of buzz for guys like Henry Ruggs III, or Tom Brady, or Todd Gurley, but those aren't necessarily situations you need to be a week early on. There are a lot of spots where we can get value, and dream on big upside at the same time.

DFS NFL Podcast – Week 1 Cash Game Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings 9/9/20
DFS NFL Podcast - Week 1 Cash Game Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings 9/9/20 The DFSR team is back with a DFS NFL Podcast for FanDuel and DraftKings. for week 1 FanDuel and DraftKings. It looks like this NFL season is actually going to happen, so we might as well go ahead and make some money off of it. 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! Things start at quarterback, where Doug and James debate the merits of paying up for Lamar Jackson vs. finding safety with a cheaper option. If you do fade Jackson, how cheap can you go? They discuss Russell Wilson, Carson Wentz, and Teddy Bridgewater. Running back for week 1 is looking very difficult, with Christian McCaffrey standing out as one of the only truly safe points per dollar options. The guys discuss a few young running backs from last season that are looking to take over the reins full time, and agree that it's looking like a tough position in general. There are a good handful of cheap wide receivers out there, though, with the DFSR lineup optimizer projecting a lot of targets for guys like Jarvis Landry, Tyler Lockett, DeSean Jackson, and more. Tight end looks like a battle between Zach Ertz and Hayden Hurst, with the main decision coming down to how much money you have left over when you finally get to the position.

Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 1
Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 1 Football season is back! For now. Hopefully forever. With a lot of off season movement and no preseason this has to be the weirdest set of week 1 picks ever, so let's get to it. 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 Russell Wilson FD 8400 DK 7000 Opponent ATLProj Points FD - 21.63 DK - 21.86Wilson comes out of the gate playing in the game with the second-highest total (49) on the road against the Atlanta Falcons. He’ll get dome conditions against the Falcons who ranked 21st in defensive DVOA against the pass in 2019. Wilson threw for the sixth-most yards in the NFL last season despite attempting about 100 or more fewer passes than anyone else in the group above him. His passing yards and passing touchdowns per attempt were easily the best in the league. He loses Doug Baldwin, and the Seahawks still love to run the ball, but Wilson is just so damn efficient, throwing only five interceptions last season while ranking sixth in quarterback rushing yards. It will cost you, but he’s about as safe as it comes. Teddy Bridgewater FD 6800 DK 5900 Opponent LVProj Points FD - 18.59 DK - 19.25Bridgewater will take over behind center for the Panthers this season after Cam Newton and Kyle Allen have departed the team. Bridgewater walks into an advantageous situation with the best pass-catching running back in McCaffery along with a full complement of wide receiver weapons in DJ Moore, Curtis Samuel, and the newly-acquired Robby Anderson. Bridgewater started five games for the Saints last season in place of an injured Drew Brees and was effective, completing almost 70% of his passes with a 9:2 TD:INT rate. Sure, he has Michael Thomas and Alvin Kamara there as well, but the accuracy has never been an issue even back to his time in Minnesota. This game has the fourth-highest total of the main slate with the Panthers 3-point home dogs to the Raiders. I love the price on Bridgewater here in what should be a close game. Carson Wentz FD 7700 DK 6300 Opponent WASProj Points FD - 19.59 DK - 20.02 Wentz has to be one of the most slept on quarterbacks in the NFL. No, he hasn't turned into a Russell Wilson/Lamar Jackson/Deshaun Watson type, but he's still awfully good. In his last five games last season...
