DraftKings Cash Picks for Week 8

Quarterback

Patrick Mahomes vs. New York Jets $8,100

The game script limited Patrick Mahomes‘ opportunity and production last week against the Broncos. He attempted just 23 passes for 200 yards and a touchdown on 51 offensive plays. This week, despite familiar expectations, Mahomes’ high floor keeps him as a safe and worthy play in cash contests. Mahomes will face a Jets defense that has allowed the 12th-most fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks over the last four weeks and ranks 28th in DVOA against the pass. The Chiefs are massive 19.5-point favorites with an implied point total of 34 points.
