Top Plays:

This is a pretty awful slate of QBs between guys like Dak Prescott, Patrick Mahomes, Jared Goff, Jordan Love, Lamar Jackson, Joe Burrow, Caleb Williams, Jalen Hurts and Drake Maye all playing in non main slate games and others facing some serious wind/weather concerns.

 

Jacoby Brissett ($5800)- Rinse and repeat. I keep going to the Brissett well and he keeps delivering. Tampa opponents throw the football at the highest rate in the league when adjusted for schedule and we know the Cards love to sling it with Jacoby (2nd highest neutral game pass rate). The Bucs secondary has been getting torched and rank 22nd in DK points allowed vs expected. The Bucs have allowed 7.8 ypa or higher in six of their last seven games.

 

Josh Allen ($7500)- The only true elite QB on the slate and in a must win situation where Allen likely will need to use his legs a lot with a beat up OL, I am ok spending up on Josh. Pittsburgh has given up the 4th most top 10 QB weeks this season in DFS.

 

Justin Herbert ($6500)- Herbert has probably the best combo of matchup and no weather concerns. The Raiders pass defense is a mess and are a true pass funnel. The Raiders rank 17th in DK points vs expected at QB and after a bye, maybe the Chargers have a somewhat fixed OL.

 

Value Plays:

Matt Stafford ($7000)- I know it’s a bit risky to start a QB at $7k as a double digit favorite but I am fine with it. He faces a decimated Carolina pass defense that is without #1 CB Jaycee Horn, S Trevor Moehrig and multiple LBs. In addition, the Panthers are a pass funnel and on a schedule adjusted basis, opponents throw on Carolina at the 3rd highest rate in the league.

 

Cam Ward ($4600)- Ward likely has limited big upside here but the way he has started to use his legs more and more, the potential for hidden value being unlocked for Cam. He has had to face an absolute murderers row of opposing defenses so the Jags pass defense is a reprieve and the easiest he has faced all season by a mile. The Jags have allowed the 9th most DK points over expected to QBs this season.

 Top Plays:

Christian McCaffery ($9300)- Amongst the elite RBs, I would lean CMC this week. While I don’t think his ypc or any sort of efficiency metric will be good his volume looks to be thru the roof. Against an elite Browns defense and in really windy conditions, I expect CMC to be peppered with a ton of swing passes and dumpoffs. It wouldn’t stun me to see 10+ targets and 25 rush attempts. Achane obviously has a nice matchup as well but he is going to be far and away the most owned RB so if you can diversify elsewhere he is worth a look.

 

James Cook ($7600)- After facing two of the better run defenses in the NFL in Tampa and Houston, Cook gets a reprieve vs a below average Steelers run defense. I know PIT does not allow a lot of RB targets (2nd lowest) but that’s more a function of facing opposing offenses that rarely throw to RBs. With a beat up OL, missing both Tackles, the Bills are not going to drop Allen back 40 times in this game.

 

Quinshon Judkins ($6200)- I am surprised that Judkins does not show higher projected ownership but in a game with 30+mph winds and against a bad Niners defense, I see no reason to avoid a guy who will see 25+ touches no matter what. SF is a below average run defense and are coming off a short week and travelling across the country. There is a better shot that they may wear down in this game.

 

Best Values:

Devin Neal ($5000)- Neal gets the start for Alvin Kamara who is out this week. He is not a speed burner but can get those tough yards. The Dolphins run defense has improved but on an offense that does not have significant talent, Neal should see 20+ touches.

 

Asthon Jeanty ($6400)- Jeanty will get a ton of touches and assuming new OC Greg Olsen will want the ball in his hands. In fact, he has a quote to reporters that Jeanty could be used even more as a receiver. Chargers rank 7th worst in adjusted ypc allowed to RBs and before the bye were gashed by both RBs on the Jags.

 

Kimani Vidal ($5700)– With Hampton announced as out for this game and as heavy 9.5 point favorites, Vidal leaps off the page as a great value at this price. In two recent big wins, Vidal saw 24 and 26 touches in those games.

Top Plays:

Jaxson Smith-Njigba ($9500)- Seven straight games where JSN has generated 20+ DFS games. He leads the NFL in both target share and air yard share. JSN is as consistent as it comes and if looking for a virtual 20+ point lock he is the guy.

 

Puka Nacua ($9000)- Obviously it’s a choice between JSN and Puka as the elite WR this week for me if you go that route. Carolina is a pass funnel on defense and are missing Horn and Moehrig as well as multiple LBs this week. The middle of the field was already a problem and without Horn I think Puka eats

 

Jaylen Waddle ($6800)- Waddle is the clear top dog for Miami with four straight 22%+ target share games. This is a low salary for a guy likely to get 8-10 targets.

 

Best Values:

Quenton Johnston ($4900)- Johnston is the cheapest of the three Chargers WRs and has the biggest upside with his deep field capabilities. Lets not forget his 13-186 output vs the Raiders in week 18 last year. The Raiders are bottom five in yards per target allowed to outside WRs and as we say with Isaiah Bond and Jerry Jeudy last week, he can easily hit a couple deep ones this week.

 

Adonai Mitchell ($3600)- I am ok if you wanted to click on John Metchie at $3800 instead too. Mitchell has much more upside and big play potential but with Tyrod under center, the Jets pass game has actual options this week. He leads everyone on the slate with empty air yards per target. He is getting a lot of volume and big play volume but still needs to connect more.

 

Darnell Mooney ($5300)- Mooney hit a big deep TD last week and will be the top target again without Drake London again this week.

 

Tre Tucker ($4800)- Tucker has seen 20%+ target share in back to back games and at $4800, he’s the 3rd cheapest WR (Mitchell and Jennings the others) with that distinction. As nearly 10 point underdogs, the Raiders will need to throw to stay around this game and Tucker has the upside.

Top Plays:

Cade Otton ($4100)- Otton has seen a nice consistent target share of late. He has seen 18%+ target share the last six games and faces an Arizona defense that ranks dead last in DK points vs expected vs TEs.

 

Juwan Johnson ($4200)- Johnson faces a Miami pass defense that has allowed the third highest rate of TEs to go over their season yardage average and have allowed the highest alternative upside (10%+) on yardage. Johnson has not seen an overwhelming number of targets with Shough but has been consistently in the upper teens.

 

Oronde Gadsden ($4,300 DK) – Gadsden has five+ targets in six straight games. With a bad OL he is a good safety valve/quick option for Herbert. 

 

Value Plays:

TJ Hockenson ($3500)– TJ has had a down year for sure but that could just be more of a function of how bad the QBs have been for the Vikings. We have no idea how good/bad Max Brosmer will be but I do know that a good TE is a young QBs best friend in a spot like this. And he faces a Seattle defense that does allow open spots, intentionally, to the TE position. SEA has allowed the 4th highest rate of TEs exceeding their seasonal yardage average. They allow the 3rd highest rate of receiving yards going to TEs. TJ’s ownership will be tremendously low.

 

Colby Parkinson ($2800)– He only ran 50% of routes last week but he is a reliable red zone target. He also has destroyed zone defenses and has a top 15 NFL EPA per target vs zone, that includes all WRs and TEs. Carolina runs zone at a top 5 rate. For this cheap of a price it won’t take that much to pay off vs a Carolina defense missing multiple starting LBs.
