Week 4 Main Slate Podcast
Locked-In Cash Plays
Borg – Jordan Mason is back in my lineup despite a dud last week. NFL teams that are double-digit home favorites over the last 5 years have averaged 29 points and won 84% of the time. I like those odds and when you add in the fact the 49ers have scored 27+ points in every HOME WIN of Purdy’s career, Mason looks strong at his price point even if Deebo Samuel comes back.
Betz – Nico was our dude on the Friday episode this week, and now that Tank Dell is out and Nico is off the injury report after logging a full practice Friday, he’s in there for me. He should cook against Jacksonville.
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 | Jayden Daniels | Jayden Daniels |
| 2 | Kyler Murray | Kyler Murray |
| 3 | Joe Burrow | Joe Burrow |
| 4 | Justin Fields | Justin Fields |
| 5 | C.J. Stroud | C.J. Stroud |
Jayden or Kyler? It’s a coinflip but if you need the savings, we get moving down and grabbing the youngster. Burrow stacks are in our arsenal this week as we mentioned how cheap his stacking partners are with him. Expect the top-2 QBs to be played everywhere, in every format, and with tons of different combinations.
