DFS FanDuel Cash Picks: Week 16 (Fantasy Football)

Each week, I’ll highlight my favorite cash game picks that I have some confidence in heading into the weekend to put into my player pools.

On the Fantasy Footballers DFS & Betting Podcast, Borg & Betz dive into a couple of these, but this article is intended for DFS Pass subscribers to get the full lay of the land. Check back on Saturdays as we narrow this pool of cash players to our DFS Best Plays, arguably the most valuable article in the DFS Pass.

Quarterbacks

Jared Goff vs PIT – $8100
He isn’t even the most expensive on the slate, and there is a world where he could be the QB1 on the week. The Lions will have to fight to get that spot in the playoffs, and playing at home in a dome will give Goff permission to sling it and push that ball down the field. The Lions have a team implied total of 28.3, the highest on the slate. The Steelers defense is not the Steelers defense of old, as they are allowing the 7th most fantasy points to opposing QBs. Goff currently has the 3rd-most passing yards among QBs (3,672), the 2nd-most TDs (29), and the same number of INTs as Matthew Stafford (5).
