DFS NFL Podcast Week 9 - Cash Game Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings 11/1/18 The DFSR crew of Doug Norrie and James Davis are on the NFL podcast discussing Week 9 cash game plays for FanDuel and DraftKings. The trade deadline did put some key situations in flux this week and there's plenty to discuss for the main slate of games. At quarterback, they debate the Cam Newton and Ryan Fitzpatrick price on both sites as they face off each other. James takes the Fitz side while Doug seems all-in on Cam. They also look at Todd Gurley on DraftKings, Latavius Murray's safety and have a debate between Christian McCaffrey and James Conner. And then at WR, they look at how all of the trade deadline deals affected the various teams. All of this and more on a full NFL podcast for FanDuel and DraftKings. Subscribe to this podcast on...

We've got you completely covered. Quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick FD 7100 DK 5500 Opponent CAR Proj Points FD - 20.86 DK - 21.59 We're sticking with Tampa Bay quarterbacks! I hate to minimize serious medical conditions, but I think I can safely say that I could be clinically diagnosed with trauma after what I experienced with Jameis Winston last week. Watching him go from being tied with Dalton in fantasy points to tossing two picks and being pulled from the game was more than my little heart could handle. That being said! It's opened up some serious opportunity at quarterback this week. Fitzpatrick is now priced like a back-up on FD and DK, and was named the starter in this week 9 tilt against the Panthers. The 35 year old Fitzpatrick is having more than a career year, with a completion percentage hovering near 70% and an absurd 10.8 yards per attempt. I don't think we can count on him to perform at quite those levels forever, but you don't need him to for him to be a cash game lock this week. Fitzy also dispelled any notions that Winston's dud was weather based - he showed up and promptly dropped 194 yards and two touchdowns in 15 passing attempts. The Bucs are seven point underdogs, but this game has the second highest total on the slate, and you have to think Fitzpatrick will have plenty of opportunity to pay off these paltry prices. Cam Newton FD 8600 DK 6600 Opponent TB Proj Points FD - 25.12 DK - 25.39 If Fitzpatrick weren't starting this week, I think you'd probably go by a pretty good rule of thumb for 2018: just play any quarterback against Tampa Bay. The Bucs are fresh off of another week of making a mediocre quarterback look like the world's greatest, and I expect that will continue this week against Newton. Cam is coming off his most efficient game of the season, and more importantly, a game that highlighted exactly why you love playing him in a game with a high total: he's the team's whole offense. Sure, Christian McCaffrey is there, but he's almost entirely dependent on catching passes to pay his value, which just gets Cam paid anyway. Newton...

DFS NFL Podcast Week 8 Recap and Week 9 Preview for FanDuel and DraftKings DFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis are back on the podcast talking about Week 8 in the NFL for FanDuel and DraftKings and looking ahead to Week 9. They start off the podcast looking at the brutal Jameis Winston performance and what to make of INTs as a driver of fantasy predictions. They then go position-by-position at some of the top performances like Marlon Mack, Adrian Peterson and Phillip Lindsay and whether that kind of production is still sustainable going forward. At receiver, there was a drop-off in the target share for some of the elite usage WRs and an uptick for some middle tier guys. They discuss whether there are any takeaways from these performances.

Indianapolis Colts Quarterback - Andrew Luck Primary Target - TY Hilton Secondary Target - Eric Ebron When breaking down games with Vegas Total(50+) and a thin spread(3.5 or less) with quarterbacks who are projected to throw the ball a ton, there was only one name that popped up this week on the Player Lab. James wrote him up in his Cash Game Article this week and not only does he possess a high floor but he also provides us with a ton of upside for GPP formats as well. A common topic with Luck since his return from injury is the lack of arm strength which resulted in a low 6.3 yards per attempt but I am not concerned at all. Not only does he lead the league with a whopping 311 passing attempts he also sits second to Patrick Mahomes in touchdown passes with 20. The Colts currently have the fifth-highest implied points(26.8) on the main slate and of those five teams this game is the only one with a spread of 3.5 or less so we can most definitely expect and other 40+ attempts. Even with Marlon Mack going off last week in a runaway against the Bills, Luck still managed to throw four touchdowns and is averaging 29.7 DraftKings/27.2 FanDuel points per game over his last four. Making this stack even more enticing this week is that T.Y. Hilton should be even closer to 100% health in week 8. He returned to action last week after missing two weeks and while he only managed 25 yards, he caught all four of his targets and also scored two touchdowns. He has 100+ yard receiving upside and is my top player to stack with Luck in week 8. It also makes sense to get Eric Ebron in your Colts stacks as he is tied for second in the entire league in receiving touchdowns with 6 and is sixth among tight ends with 357 receiving yards. The other thing that stands out for Ebron is...
