DFS First Look at Salaries & Plays for Week 11 (Fantasy Football)
Every week the First Look article gives you a taste of the slate and some of the more intriguing salaries that DraftKings releases. The goal is to identify early-week cash game considerations, as well as potential tournament plays before we piece together the stacking options. On Tuesdays, I share some of these insights on the Fantasy Footballers DFS & Betting Podcast if you want further commentary on some of the salary standouts.
Check back later in the week when Matthew Betz and I share our official DraftKings and FanDuel picks for cash and GPPs exclusively in the DFS Pass.
Here are the games for this week’s main slate* including implied team totals (TIP) for each matchup.
Overview
For newcomers, the main slate for DFS includes the Sunday early (1:00 EST) and afternoon games (4:05 EST). At first glance, here are a couple of things to note:
- Off the Main Slate: NE, NYJ, MIA, WAS, PHI, DET, DAL, LV
- Bye Week Teams: IND, NO
- We get an 11-game main slate this week with the Madrid matchup in the early Sunday morning.
I’ve also added a glossary of metrics at the bottom if you want a quick refresher or definition of some of the statistics used below.
Quarterbacks
High-Priced Studs: Josh Allen ($7000) remains the same price as last week.
Points per $ Cash Guys: Mac Jones ($5300) and Jacoby Brissett ($4900) both are chucking it. Jones (269 passing ypg) and Brissett (280) both rank in the top-5.
GPP Intrigue: Justin Herbert ($6300), Trevor Lawrence ($5100)
