Here we go. Always be sure to check the vegas lines. Find the high scoring games and highlight them. I focus on these games for my cash lineups. If the game is a close one with high total I really look for cash players in that game. These teams should be moving up and down the field all day and hopefully score lots of points.
I will highlight players that I want to use by giving them stars (see below). These are players for both GPP and Cash Lineups.
5-STARs
- Quarterback: Matt Ryan , Drew Bree’s
- Running Back: Kareem Hunt, L.Fournette, Melvin Gordon
- Receivers : Pierre Garcon,Keenan Allen , Antonio Brown, DeAndre Hopkins, Jones
- Defense: Denver, Houston
4-STARs
- Quarterback: Aaron Rodgers ,Doug Baldwin
- Running Back: La’veon Bell, Todd Gurley
- Receivers: Doug Baldwin, Larry Fitzgerald, Jarvis Landry, TY Hilton
- Defense: Atlanta Falcons, NE Pats
3-STARs
- Quarterback: Deshaun Watson, Marcus Mariota
- Running Back: Mark Ingram, Lamar Miller
- Receivers: Davante Adams, Michael Thomas, Mike Evans
- Defense: Jacksonville, Baltimore
Chalk Stacks to Use
Aaron Rodgers- Devante Adams
Ryan- Jones-Sanu
Newton- Christian MCcaffrey- Benjamin
Drew Bree’s- Michael Thomas
Contrarian Stacks
Mitch Trubisky- Wright- this could be an interesting play that will be under 1%
Carson Palmer- Jaron Brown
Brian Hoyer- Pierre Garcon
Eli Manning- Evan Engram
In the Lions game Ameer Abdullah has a 150-yard day. Arizona is so weak stopping the run.
Lamar Miller is a back. Volume equal points, so for cash games I will take Miller and Hunt and move on. Wide receivers you can see who I like above but Brown, Benjamin, Jones, Fitzgerald and Baldwin are my front runners.
For Kickers, I am looking at Bryant, Bailey, Prater and Dawson.
If you are playing the Million Dollar contests on both sites you need to find a player or players that have upside but will be low owned. I really like the combination of Brian Hoyer and Pierre Garcon. I played them week one and they did not click. This week I believe Garcon will see 10 targets. They will be playing from behind and Hoyer will be throwing all day. I believe Garcon has the best chance for a big game. I would not play that combo in smaller contests as it a boom or bust play.
Cash Game Players to Consider:
QB: Brady, Cousins, Rodgers, Bree’s, Ryan
RB: Hunt, Miller, Fournette , Gordon
WR: Brown, Jones, ,Evans ,Nelson, AJ Green, Michael Thomas
TE: Ertz and Engram
Kickers: Matt Bryant, Justin Tucker, Mason Crosby, Dan Bailey
Defense: Denver
GPP Players to Consider:
QB: Bree’s, Ryan, Hoyer, Winston, Mariota
RB: Bell, , Freeman, Murray, Ajayi, Gurley, Hunt, Powell, Kamara
WR: Evans, Brown, Jones, Michael Thomas, Amari Cooper, Dez Bryant, Pierre Garcon, Hopkins
Kicker; Bryant, Gostkowski, Vinateri
Defense: Denver, Seattle, Rams, Bills,
Some contrarian plays in GPPs; Play your QB with two wide receivers from same game if total projected points is over 50. Hook up a punt returner and his defense. If he can run back a TD you will get point for both positions.
I am posting free DFS lineups on our site for you to use. The lineups will be up dated right until lock. Please visit www.fantasysportsus.com and you can email me at Ian@fantasysportsus.com.
