DFS FanDuel Cash Picks: Week 5 (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
Justin Herbert vs WAS $8000
The Commanders have allowed at least 20 fantasy points to QBs three out of four weeks this season, and Herbert should be another QB to take advantage. Washington is allowing the 6th most passing yards per game, and Herbert has thrown for 300 yards or more in two of the first four weeks of the season. This game has the second-highest over/under on the slate at 47.5. If you are looking to pay up this week in cash, Herbert is a good option.
