Scoring could be concentrated during this week's 10-game slate
It was nice to get back to my winning ways last weekend as my cash lineup finished with a blistering 180.32 points.
The Sunday morning scratch of Dalvin Cook allowed me to squeeze in Alexander Mattison with my core of Trevor Lawrence, Derrick Henry, Davante Adams and Mike Gesicki.
My three GPP lineups were not as successful. Only my Green Bay-Cincinnati sneaky stack of Joe Burrow, Adams, JaMarr Chase and Tee Higgins placed in 2 of three contests with 162.54 points.
With the bye weeks upon us, I expect the scoring to be tighter in the cash games, and GPP upside to be limited with less games to choose players.
I will be providing my main cash and GPP lineups on my Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/fantasyfbguru
Quarterback
High
Patrick Mahomes II, Kansas City ($8,300 DraftKings, $9,000 FanDuel): With limited upside options, Mahomes will be the safe play in cash games, and he tends to score more fantasy points in road games.
Low
Daniel Jones, NY Giants ($5,500 DK, $7,200 FD): The Giants should be in a negative game script vs. the heavily favored Rams, giving Jones plenty of chances to drop back and score points.
Running Back
High
Austin Ekeler, LA Chargers ($7,900 DK, $8,400 FD): With no Henry on the 10-game main slate, Ekeler is the safest pick as the high-end cash game RB.
Low
Darrel Williams, Kanas City ($4,900 DK, $5,200 FD): Teaming Williams with Mahomes, almost guarantees all the Chiefs’ TD opportunities in a high-scoring affair.
Wide Receiver
High
Keenan Allen, LA Chargers ($6,400 DK, $7,100 FD): Allen has become 1B among the Chargers WRs but Mike Williams is questionable with a knee issue.
Low
Amon-Ra St. Brown, Detroit ($4,200 DK, $5,200 FD): Brown has 16 targets the last two weeks in the Lions’ depleted receiving corps.
Tight End
High
Travis Kelce, Kansas City ($7,000 DK, $8,500 FD): This may be the cheapest we see Kelce all season on DraftKings.
Low
Ricky Seals-Jones, Washington ($3,000 DK, $5,000 FD): He had nine targets and played 93 percent of the snaps last week filling in for the injured Logan Thomas.
