Daily Fantasy Football Top Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 7 – 10/21/18
Daily Fantasy Football Top Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 7 - 10/21/18 Welcome back football fans. We are now deep into the bye weeks as four teams(GB, OAK, PIT, SEA) will get the week off and combine that with an early game in London plus the regular Primetime games and we have just 10 games on the main slate. Then you start looking at the limited options, especially at the running back and tight end position, and realize we are going to need some value stacks to fit the puzzle together this week. Let's take a look at a couple that stand out using the DFSR Player Lab. Want to see the rest of this article? Go grab a free three day trial of DFSR Pro or DFSR Basic!

Baltimore Ravens Quarterback - Joe Flacco Primary Target - Michael Crabtree Secondary Target - John Brown Like always, I started with the "High Vegas Total" and "Thin Spread" filters which narrowed the options down to one game. In no way do I think Joe Flacco is the better quarterback of the two but I will side with him and the Ravens this week for a couple of reasons. It starts with the PTS/$ value as Flacco comes cheaper on both sites on a week where the options are limited and the price of Todd Gurley is through the roof but is our top projected play from a raw points perspective and a near must play in all formats. Despite the Saints holding Alex Smith to 275 and no touchdowns and Eli Manning to 255 yards and one touchdown over the past two weeks, they have still given up the third most passing yards per game(297.6) on the season and the third-most fantasy points against quarterbacks. While Flacco doesn't have the same upside as Brees, Cousins, Winston and others on this slate, he has still been pretty good averaging 298 yards per game and three times hs thrown for multiple touchdowns. The wide receivers also provide some salary relief in this matchup as both are under $6K on DraftKings and in the mid $6K range on FanDuel. Crabtree has out-targeted Brown 55-47 on the season but neither has been extremely reliable with a 45% and 55% catch rate but in this matchup, I think both have a shot to hit and exceed value on both sites and should also be low-owned. Cleveland Browns Quarterback - Baker Mayfield Primary Target - Jarvis Landry Secondary Targets - David Njoku What I did next was use the same "High Vegas O/U",...
DFS NFL Week 7 Cash Game Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings 10/17/18
DFS NFL Week 7 Cash Game Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings 10/17/18 Chris and James get together to talk about DFS cash game options for week 7 in the NFL. They go position by position to try and figure out how we can spread the money around in a fairly small 9 game main slate. Can we go double expensive at running back? If we do, do we have to accept some risk at QB or WR? Is Adam Thielen a must play? And what on Earth are we supposed to do at the worst position in the history of DFS - tight end in 2018? The guys answer these questions and more. Enjoy! Subscribe to this podcast on...
Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 7
Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 7 Back-to-back weeks where I write the football picks? Why should you be so blessed? With NBA season back and ready to fire on all cylinders, it's an all hands on deck situation here at DFSR. Last week was a funny one - we hit on some high value targets, and had some notable misses as well (like Jameis on DK but not on FD). But that's the nature of DFS, and we're back to the grind and ready to turn in a winner for week 7.

We've got you completely covered. Quarterback Jameis Winston FD 7800 DK 6300 Opponent CLE Proj Points FD - 21.24 DK - 21.11 Jameis was the chalk quarterback play in Week 6 and didn’t disappoint. He led all QBs in fantasy scoring with 395 yards and 4 touchdowns through the air. He also picked up 31 more on the ground in the loss to the Falcons. He doesn’t get quite the same matchup against the Browns this week, but Tampa Bay still comes in with the third-highest implied total of the main slate (26.25) as three-point home favorites against the Browns. It’s tough to imagine the Bucs getting all that much going on the ground and should have to rely on Winston’s arm (and legs) throughout. In his first 1.5 weeks back since the suspension, Jameis has completed 75% of his passes which makes the four interceptions look a lot more like bad luck than bad decision-making. That number should come down and we could see Winston as a chalk QB play again on the main slate. Cam Newton FD 8200 DK 5900 Opponent PHI Proj Points FD - 21.5 DK - 22.81 He’s probably a little too expensive on FanDuel, but the sub-6K tag on DraftKings looks solid for Cam even facing off against the Eagles. From a cash game perspective, he has such a high floor. Through the first five games, he’s rushed less than eight times only once and is averaging 9/42 on the ground this season. He’s the top running quarterback and it isn’t all that close. Those running numbers do help make up for the fact that he hasn’t been a prolific passer (and probably never will be). But he’s still averaging 231 yards...
