Week 10 Main Slate DFS Podcast
Locked-In Cash Plays
Borg – I cannot fathom ignoring Aaron Jones ($6700) in cash this week. Minnesota is a TD favorite on the road and the Jaguars are arguably the league’s worst defense. He’s averaging the most snaps and opportunities per game of his career and should easily be $1000 more in salary. I have him down (in my own averaged projections) for 16.5 rush attempts and 4.3 targets totaling 27.3 weighted opportunities. If you a fan of weighted opportunities, that puts him in an elite group this week.
Betz – No Olave, no Shaheed, no Bub Means, no Cedrick Wilson, no Jamaal Williams, no Kendre Miller. It’s impossible to scroll past Alvin Kamara ($8,100) on this slate after the dude saw 38 opportunities a week ago. THIRTY-EIGHT!
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 | Justin Herbert | Justin Herbert |
| 3 | Sam Darnold | Sam Darnold |
| 4 | Jayden Daniels | Aaron Rodgers |
| 5 | Aaron Rodgers | Mac Jones |
We’re really only considering two QBs in cash – Brock Purdy with the Niners sporting a near 30 point implied team total or Justin Herbert at home against the Titans. It’s a price thing this week where we need to save money in a few places – we’d love to play Hurts, Daniels or Allen, but without great value at WR and some incredibly strong RB plays at the top, the savings at QB look necessary for cash games.
