DraftKings Core Plays
These are the 3-5 players at each position we have mixed in our cash player pool. Based on salaries, late news, and budget constraints, it is guaranteed you will not be able to fit in all of them. But their high floors and team-implied totals make them great plays for the week in both cash & GPPs.
These are simply in order of favorite core players. You obviously won’t be able to fit all in a cash lineup and there are salary tradeoffs for paying up at each position.
| DraftKings-QB | BORG | BETZ |
| 1 | Brock Purdy | Brock Purdy |
| 2 | Lamar Jackson | Lamar Jackson |
| 3 | Patrick Mahomes | Baker Mayfield |
| 4 | Josh Allen | Josh Allen |
| 5 | Jordan Love | Jared Goff |
Brock Purdy at home with a 30-point implied team total…stop us if you’ve heard that before. He’s our top QB play this week when you adjust for salary. When looking at other QBs, there’s a ceiling to chase with mobile guys like Allen and Lamar, and if you want to get into some thinner plays for GPPs, Baker and Love have shown a ceiling recently.
