NFL DFS FanDuel Cash Picks for Week 12 (Fantasy Football)
Each week I’ll highlight my favorite cash game picks that I have some confidence heading into the weekend to put into my player pools. For more on cash game strategy and the mechanics of it, make sure you listen to our DFS Cash Overview episode. On the Fantasy Footballers DFS & Betting Podcast, Betz and myself will dive into a couple of these but this article is intended for DFS Pass subscribers to get the full lay of the land.
On Saturdays, I narrow this pool of cash players to our DFS Best Plays, arguably the most valuable article in the DFS Pass.
Quarterbacks
This week, plan on the field to spend down at QB with Jayden Daniels ($9000) and Jalen Hurts ($9300) being tempting but expensive options.
Geno Smith vs ARI- $7400
Geno leads the NFL in pass attempts per game (37.4) and yet his TD rate (3%) continues to drag behind. This is a volume play at a solid price in cash knowing Smith’s floor remains high every single week. He threw 2 passing TDs in each matchup against the Cardinals last year and while the Arizona defense is an improved unit, don’t be worried about the matchup. Over the last six weeks, they rank 22nd in passing yards allowed. I wrote up the SEA/ARI game in the Pace of Play article if you want a deeper dive on how I think Seattle might attack Arizona.
