Quarterback Josh Allen FD 9500 DK 8000 Opponent DET Proj Points FD - 27.95 DK - 27.95 The Bills will be the center of discussion on this slate with a game total(54) which is 9.5 points higher than the Giants and Cowboys game. This will be the second time in five days for the Bills playing here in Detroit, this time against the 25th-ranked Lions' defense that has given up an average of 421.5 yards per game over their last four. Josh Allen may be on a mini-slump throwing the ball while he plays through an injury but has made up for it with his legs rushing for 80+ yards in two of his last three. The price has also come down to its third lowest point of the season and whether that's slate relative or not, it makes it easier to build around the highest floor and ceiling QB on the slate. Dak Prescott FD 8000 DK 6200 Opponent NYG Proj Points FD - 19.58 DK - 19.58 Things get interesting after Allen as you probably don't wanna touch Kirk Cousins against the #1 pass defense and Mac Jones doesn't really have a lot to offer either. THis brings us to the Cowboys and Giants game where I think both quarterbacks are viable and will be in my player pool on Thanksgiving. I lean towards Dak if choosing between them and it really comes down to consistency. Since an uninspiring return in Week 7, Dak has thrown for 250 or more yards with multiple touchdowns and 20+ fantasy point efforts in three straight games against NFC North opponents. The Cowboys utilized the run game in their first meeting with the Giants with Cooper Rush under center but I love the weapons Dak has around him here and the price differential allows us to build a more balanced lineup. I will have a ton of exposure to Dak in all formats. Also Consider: Daniel Jones(NYG) who is coming off a great game against the Lions and had success against the Cowboys on the ground(9-79) in their first meeting. Running Back...

Game Stack - Cowboys @ Vikings Dak Prescott FD 7500 DK 6600 Opponent MIN Proj Points FD - 19.24 DK - 19.24 CeeDee Lamb FD 8100 DK 7500 Opponent MIN Proj Points FD - 17.57 DK - 21.22 Dalton Schultz FD 5900 DK 4300 Opponent MIN Proj Points FD - 9.98 DK - 12.33 Dalvin Cook FD 8300 DK 8000 Opponent DAL Proj Points FD - 15.72 DK - 17.27 This is going to be a popular landing spot for many stacks this week but I think the ownership is somewhat spread out with so many different ways to stack it. With Ezekiel Elliott likely to return, it muddies up the backfield which has my favorite build in this game starting with Dak Prescott and the passing game. Last week wasn't pretty if you are a Cowboys fan as he threw two crucial interceptions but for fantasy, he threw for 265 yards and three touchdowns for his second straight 20+ fantasy point game. He now faces a Vikings defense that is middle of the pack in defensive efficiency against the pass(15th) but has given up a pile of fantasy points to opposing passing games ranking 25th and 29th in fantasy points against quarterbacks and wide receivers. I will start my Prescott stacks with CeeDee Lamb who is coming off his best game of the season and has been a very consistent option all season long, no matter who has been under center. I mentioned the Vikings' struggles against wide receivers above(29th in fantasy points to the position) and a lot of that production has come lately as four different wideouts have tallied 100 or more yards against the Vikings in the last four weeks. I also love double-stacking with Dak and making it very appealing are the value secondary options starting with Dalton Schultz who has quietly tallied 15 targets in two games since Dak's return. My game script in this build is Vikings leading in the second half which would give Dalvin Cook access to his upside of 20+ touches. Despite the lack of consistent touches, in relation...

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

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.

Arizona Passing Game Kyler Murray FD 8200 DK 7400 Opponent SEA Proj Points FD - 24.26 DK - 24.26 DeAndre Hopkins FD 8600 DK 7900 Opponent SEA Proj Points FD - 22.42 DK - 27.27 Rondale Moore FD 5900 DK 5200 Opponent SEA Proj Points FD - 11 DK - 13.68 The first meeting between these two teams was a huge fantasy letdown in a 19-9 win for the Seahawks but I won't let that get me away from stacking them again. The biggest difference here is just how much better Kyler Murray is with his top receiver DeAndre Hopkins back in the mix. In two games since returning, Kyler has completed 22 of 27 passes in Hopkins' direction with the star wideout having a combined 262 receiving yards in those games. With Hopkins back, Kyler has also seen his accuracy improve completing 69.8% of his passes in those two games(65% in six games without Hopkins). He is also coming off his best game of the season finally showing us his upside with 326 passing yards and three touchdowns. Finally, Kyler gives us big upside with his legs and has almost identical rushing numbers as Josh Allen. While Hopkins is easily the top option in the offense, I do like double-stacking the Cardinals and a Kyler ceiling game will most definitely involve two pass-catchers. Rondale Moore will not only get a lot of single coverage but gets the more favorable matchup in the slot where he runs most of his routes. He flopped in the first game with DHop back but rebounded in a big way last week catching 7 of 8 targets for 92 yards and his first touchdown of the season. Also consider getting some exposure to Zach Ertz(TE) in your Cardinals stacks. He has yet to give us the ceiling game we have been waiting for but leads all tight ends with 14 redzone targets this season so the upside is most definitely there. Run it back with: Tyler Lockett or D.K. Metcalf in the passing game or in a Seattle leading & up late game...
