Positional Breakdown

QB

At the quarterback position, Lamar Jackson is up top, and it is hard not to like him against a poor Bengals defense. He is one of the best plays of the slate. The rushing aspect of his game, though, has been gone recently. Patrick Mahomes is up next, and the pass defense is not great for the Dallas Cowboys. Speaking of the Cowboys, Dak Prescott is notable for having a field day against the Philadelphia Eagles. Jared Goff is not in play to me, even though he is at home. Jordan Love is cheap in the spot against the Lions, and he is worth a flier. Last but not least, the Bengals are dependent on Joe Burrow coming back or not. The Bengals are expecting Joe Burrow to play, and we know the rushing upside for him will not be there. I am worried about him coming into this game.

RB

At the running back position, Jahmyr Gibbs had a monster game, and it was great to see. This rush defense does scare me, though, for him. I would look to him to catch multiple passes out of the backfield. To continue about the Lions, David Montgomery is interesting on the slate based on his price tag. On the Packers, Josh Jacobs is the big news on whether he is playing or not. If he is out, I am in on Emmanuel Wilson, who looked fantastic in his starting role last game. The Lions' defense, though, is scary against the rush. Josh Jacobs is in and I am not high on him due to his injury. On the Chiefs, Isiah Pacheco is active and will be playing. Kareem Hunt is priced over him, and the Cowboys' rush defense is improving, which makes him a tough click. I am staying away from the running backs on the Chiefs. On the Cowboys, Javonte Williams has been consistent as can be. On the Bengals, Chase Brown has been the odd man out for me, and I would rather go with other running backs. On the Ravens, this is an all-time spot for Derrick Henry. Keaton Mitchell is earning snaps over Justice Hill at this pace. Keep in mind Hill is out now and that boosts Mitchell: Overall, my main targets are the Ravens.

WR

At the wide receiver position, the Packers are interesting to look at due to the options you have. Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs are leading the snaps on the team. I am loving both in this matchup. We need the news on Matthew Golden and Jayden Reed on whether he is going to be off the injury reserve. Dontayvion Wicks is cheap for his role, but injuries could impact this. On the Lions, Amon-Ra St. Brown is in a great spot, and I love his upside on DraftKings. Jameson Williams is the definition of boom or bust in your lineups. I am leaning on the boom side of this gameplay. Kalif Raymond is questionable coming into this game, but we've seen news outlets bump up Isaac TeSlaa. I am not playing that game again with Isaac TeSlaa. On the Chiefs, Rashee Rice is looking great, and you have to choose him as one of the top receivers on the slate. Hollywood Brown has been disappearing from this offense. I would lean Xavier Worthy over Hollywood Brown. I am not looking at any other options on the Chiefs. On the Cowboys, George Pickens is now higher priced than CeeDee Lamb. The drops have been an issue for CeeDee Lamb. I am liking George Pickens in this spot. I will say, though CeeDee Lamb is too cheap for the pop upside in his game. Ryan Flournoy is a fade to me, and I'd rather go to KaVontae Turpin. On the Bengals, Ja'Marr Chase should be back after the spitting saga. If Joe Burrow is back, Chase would be a target to look at. Tee Higgins is out due to his concussion that was sustained last game. Mitch Tinsley will be the main benefit that I would look at with his increased snap count. Andrei Iosivas is cheap as well and someone you could throw into your lineups as a value. On the Ravens, this is the group I don't know what to do with exactly. Zay Flowers has been good and consistent with his production. Rashod Bateman has been out, and we need the news on him. DeAndre Hopkins has been irrelevant.

TE

At the tight end position, on the Packers, we have a dynamic that hasn't worked since Tucker Kraft has been out. Luke Musgrave has not filled the role like some of us expected. On the Lions, Sam LaPorta is out and so is Brock Wright. This opens up Ross Dwelley at a great price. Last game, he earned four targets and is certainly a cheap option you could look at. I do like him as a value. On the Chiefs, Noah Gray is questionable coming into this game. Travis Kelce has been super all over the place this season. On the Cowboys, Jake Ferguson has seen a good amount of targets, but I am looking to fade him coming into this matchup. On the Bengals, Mike Gesicki is a guy who could pop but also come up with a goose egg. On the Ravens, this is where I am going to look at the tight ends on the DraftKings slate. Mark Andrews and Isaiah Likely are the top plays of the slate.
