GPP Leverage Plays for Daily Fantasy NFL Week 7 on FanDuel and DraftKings
GPP Leverage Plays for Daily Fantasy NFL Week 7 on FanDuel and DraftKings Welcome back football fans. Doug and James covered the top cash games plays earlier in the week and also broke down every game from a fantasy perspective on the weekly Mega Podcast. In this article, I am going to look at a couple of leverage plays for us to pivot to in GPP formats to get lower ownership.

Matt Breida FD 5600 DK 5300 Opponent WAS Proj Points FD - 10.78 DK - 11.64 Of those four teams on bye in Week 7, we lose a ton of running back talent in Nick Chubb, James Conner, and Christian McCaffrey. This combined with some plus matchups really narrows the field of top running backs and will naturally raise their ownership levels but on the flip side also presents some opportunities to pivot off the chalk(Leonard Fournette, Dalvin Cook, Chris Carson, Saquon Barkley). Even in the mid-range, there are some pivots as Latavius Murray is gaining steam with Kamara being ruled out. My pivot in this range will be with Matt Breida who appears could be about half the ownership of his own teammate Tevin Coleman. The 49ers get an excellent matchup against a Redskins team that has given up the 10th most rushing yards and 5th most receiving yards to running backs. Coleman is going to get the bulk of the carries(34-24 last two weeks) but Breida is the preferred passing-down back. Either way, both backs should get a ton of work this week with the 49ers a 10-point favorite against a weak defense and they run(57%) more than any other team in the league. I also like to see that the combined rushing/receiving yards prop for Breida is actually set a yard higher than Coleman. I will have exposure to both running backs in this matchup but if Breida continues to be projected for half the ownership, I may run more of a 70/30 split between them.

GPP Leverage Plays for Daily Fantasy NFL Week 6 on FanDuel and DraftKings
GPP Leverage Plays for Daily Fantasy NFL Week 6 on FanDuel and DraftKings Welcome back football fans. Earlier in the week, Doug went over the top cash game plays and then he and James broke down every single game on the Mega Podcast.

Nick Chubb FD 7800 DK 7300 Opponent SEA Proj Points FD - 18.07 DK - 19.47 The mid-range is where a lot of people will be going for running backs this week and it makes sense as the tier is loaded with talent in plus situations. The chalk in this range is most definitely going to flow to Leonard Fournette and Le'Veon Bell who both have 20+ tags on FanShare at the moment. After those two, I think ownership then falls on Mark Ingram in an excellent matchup. Projecting things out, there is then a fairly big gap of ownership that I think we can take advantage of with Nick Chubb who is likely going to be sub 10% owned in GPP formats. Like Fournette and Bell, Chubb gets a ton of volume sitting 5th overall in touches per game(21.8) and has made the most of them as he is also 4th in overall scrimmage yards per game(119.2). The Browns are a small home underdog(+1.5) against the Seahawks who have allowed the 4th fewest rushing yards to running backs but also the 2nd fewest attempts resulting in a mid-range 16th rank in DVOA against the rush. With the focus on Odell Beckham and Jarvis Landry in the passing game, Chubb is also not going to see a lot of loaded boxes to shut him down. In no way is Chubb safe in this spot or safe for cash games but at half or a third of the ownership as others in the same range, I will take a shot with his enormous upside. Amari Cooper FD 8100 DK 7000 Opponent NYJ Proj Points FD - 14.73 DK - 17.62 Like I mentioned above, the mid-range running back tier is going to be popular this week which automatically pushes...

They roll position-by-position for the main slate covering the “safer” plays to consider in your 50/50 contests. At quarterback they target the Arizona-Atlanta game with both Kyler Murray and Matt Ryan in play in what could be a high-scoring affair. But there’s also Lamar Jackson to consider against a terrible Bengals’ defense. At running back, things might get a little tricky with Christian McCaffrey off of the main slate. They focus on some game-script independent guys like Leonard Fournette, Dalvin Cook, David Johnson and even *gasp* Le’Veon Bell. And finally, at WR there’s Cooper Kupp’s crazy target share, Michael Thomas converting everything into a catch and the Arizona wide outs in what could be a shootout. All of this and more on a Week 6 FanDuel and DraftKings Cash Game...
