Brock Purdy, Taulia Tagovailoa Could Provide Nice College Football DFS Value

The early slate of DFS college football games features plenty of potential offensive firepower. While many will gravitate toward the Oklahoma-Baylor tilt, I see plenty of fantasy value among players with cheaper salaries in other contests. Here are six players to consider this week.

Week 10 of the NFL season brings some nice opportunities for value plays in DFS, with several players in advantageous matchups against teams that poorly defend their position. Here are five players under $5,000 to consider on DraftKings this week. Jordan Howard, Eagles RB ($4,900) Howard has emerged as the […]

Jordan Love, Rashod Bateman Among This Week’s DFS Value Plays

Following a week that saw several lower-profile (and lowly priced) players put up big fantasy numbers, Week 9 of the NFL season feels like another slate that could see some surprises. Certainly, there are some extremely cheap options at each position this week, topped by Jordan Love at QB. Let’s […]

NFL DFS: Is Justin Fields Worth the Risk in Week 8?

Injuries will play a large role in the selections for DFS value plays on DraftKings this week. Some low-priced players should play a large role in their team’s offenses due to injured starters. In other cases, studs will return from injury and we can get them at a buy-low opportunity […]

Oklahoma, UCLA Players Could Dominate in College Football DFS Week 8

Week 8 of the college football season should bring plenty of shootouts, with such high-flying offenses as Oklahoma, Ole Miss and UCLA on the slate. We’ll probably want to sprinkle skill position players from these teams in our DFS rosters. Here are six to consider this week: Quarterbacks Caleb Williams, […]

Week 7 of NFL DFS: Look to JD McKissic, Dante Pettis for Value

Week 7 of the NFL season brings us 10 games on the DraftKings DFS main slate. Huge scorers like Kyler Murray, Derrick Henry, and Davante Adams are among the player pool, so if we want to roster those studs, we’ve got to dig deeper into the list to find some […]

Khalil Herbert Could Provide Big DFS Value in NFL Week 6

The main slate for DFS this Sunday includes just 10 games thanks to bye weeks and another international contest. There should still be plenty of offensive firepower on the skinnier slate, however, especially in the matchup between Kansas City and Washington. Here are five players under $5,000 on DraftKings to […]

Connor Bazelak Could be Key QB in College Football DFS This Saturday

Week 5 of college football promises some exciting action, with the over-under for the Ole Miss-Alabama game set at nearly 80. But I’ve set my eyes mostly toward some other contests that Vegas expects to be high-scoring, too, but could be somewhat overlooked for DFS purposes. Consider these six players […]

NFL DFS Week 3 Value Plays: Is Jacoby Brissett Worth the Risk?

It didn’t take long before injuries began claiming star NFL players, as several notables went down last week. Their absences will give backups (and lower-salaried DFS players) a chance to start and accumulate some fantasy points in Week 3. That could be especially helpful to us at the quarterback position […]

Chase Edmonds, Jared Cook Lead the Way for NFL DFS Value Plays This Week

Week 1 featured the usual DFS surprises, as some veterans got fewer snaps than expected, popular picks went down with injuries, and a few rookies garnered more attention in their offenses than anticipated. Let’s look ahead to Week 2 and the sub-$5,000 value plays on DraftKings. No starting quarterbacks fit […]
