Quarterbacks Lamar Jackson FD 8400 DK 7400 Opponent CINProj Points FD - 25.61 DK - 26.33 He didn’t turn in a world-beater in Week 6, but it was more about a little bad luck than anything else. The Ravens crushed the Chargers 34-6 and were so in control of the game that they simply didn’t need Jackson to do anything else. He only threw for 167 yards and a touchdown (Hollywood Brown dropped an easy one) and put up 51 yards on the ground. Again, it wasn’t anything to write home about, but he got scripted out of the game more than anything else. The Bengals have been better than advertised on defense this season, ranking in the top-10 in DVOA. But the way Lamar scores points, his floor is just safer than anyone else at the position on a game-to-game basis. Patrick Mahomes FD 8800 DK 8400 Opponent TENProj Points FD - 25.6 DK - 26.14 There is a case to pay all the way up for Mahomes here considering the game total, matchup, and the fact that he is Patrick Freakin Mahomes. He now ranks second on the season in DraftKings points per game behind only Derrick Henry. And we saw that the Chiefs are going to need to continue relying on the aerial game considering they ran for less than four yards per carry last week against the Washington Football Team. Mahomes is very expensive, but the Chiefs have a whopping 30.5 implied total coming in here. Running Backs Leonard Fournette FD 7000 DK 6400 Opponent CHIProj Points FD - 18.57 DK - 20.63 We like to look for running backs as big home favorites as a starting place for cash games and Fournette definitely fits the bill there. The Bucs are -13 against the Bears coming into this game and Fournette has taken over RB1 duties for Tampa Bay. He’s played about 70% of the snaps for the Bucs over the last three weeks and has been pretty efficient when getting the ball. He’s averaging about 4.5 yards per carry in that stretch with more than five targets per game in the passing attack. The Bears have been a decent defense on the season, but Fournette is still underpriced for his role and the Bucs being such big favorites. Darrell Henderson Jr....

Kansas City Chiefs Passing Game Patrick Mahomes FD 9000 DK 8300 Opponent WAS Proj Points FD - 25.21 DK - 25.75 Travis Kelce FD 8500 DK 7000 Opponent WAS Proj Points FD - 15.46 DK - 18.82 This is likely a Top 3 highest owned stack this week but that doesn't mean we should immediately avoid it. While the Chiefs have struggled to a 2-3 record in the standings but it's definitely not on the offense who ranks 5th overall in terms of points per game(30.8). They have been terrific both through the air(5th in passing yards per game) and on the ground(7th in rushing yards per game). Good news for the passing game for fantasy now that Clyde Edwards Helaire has been placed on the IR. It will be Darrel Williams making his first start and he will be chalky himself so one way to differentiate is just going full pass game build. That starts with Patrick Mahomes who may be 7th in passing yards per game(298) but is first in passing touchdowns(16) and has the KC offense ranked 4th in my RedZone rankings(TD's per trip to RZ). My complete player pool for KC depends on the status of Tyreek Hill who has not practiced all week and if he is limited or out, I see Travis Kelce taking on an even larger role with a projected 10-15 targets. The cost is high but the upside is slate-breaking. Lock and load for GPP! Cincinnati Bengals Joe Burrow FD 7400 DK 6300 Opponent DET Proj Points FD - 17.84 DK - 18.37 Ja'Marr Chase FD 7800 DK 6700 Opponent DET Proj Points FD - 14.1 DK - 16.89 Joe Mixon FD 7000 DK 6400 Opponent DET Proj Points FD - 16.16 DK - 17.51 I am going right back to a Bengals stack this week despite only putting up 22 points a week ago against the Packers. First of all, they get a much better matchup against a MUCH weaker NFC North opponent in the Lions who rank 22nd in points per game against. Don't get...
