It's Sunday, and with that it is time to set our DFS lineups so that we can win some cash this week. In this article I will be going over 8 of my favorite value plays on draft kings. These are guys that need to be in your lineup at their price and they could be the difference maker in winning you the big bucks this week. So let's get into it.
QB: Ryan Fitzpatrick
$5400
vs SEA (32nd)
It seems that Fitzmagic is back yet again in 2020. He has put up 25+ draft kings points in each of the last two weeks and now faces the worst fantasy defense vs QBs. The Seahawks are also without Jamal Adams this week. Another interesting fact I found was that in each of the 7 biggest fantasy performances of Ryan's career, the opponent's offense has averaged 32 PPG. This matchup is almost too good to be true.
RB: Kenyan Drake
$6,000
vs CAR (31st)
Kenyan Drake has let a lot of people down so far. But I am convinced that this is the week he blows up. Carolina has been stout vs the QB ranking as the 10th best team vs fantasy QBs. Why? Because teams have just run it down their throat and that is exactly what I expect to happen on Sunday. Drake is going to find the endzone this week. AT an extremely cheap price of 6k, Drake should be in all of your lineups.
RB: Mike Davis
$5,700
vs ARI (18th)
Mike Davis has filled the CMC role in this offense better quite well to say the least. Over his past 5 quarters he has seen 17 targets. 17 TARGETS! This is a game, unlike last week, that I expect the Panthers to be trailing which will lead to a beneficial game script for Davis. I expect another 6-7 targets this week+ an easier matchup on the ground. I think Davis comes with a safe floor and a very high ceiling. If you are looking to pay down at RB and spend your money elsewhere, Davis is your guy.
RB: Darrell Henderson
$5,800
vs NYG (24th)
Darrell Henderson is a guy that caught my eye later on in the week after seeing that Cam Akers will be missing week 4. Henderson has basically phased Malcom Brown out of the offense and taken over as the main guy. The Rams have made it clear that they are a run first team. With a great matchup vs the Giants who are the 24th worst defense vs fantasy RBs and Henderson likely being in a positive game script all game, he is in a smash spot in week four.
WR: Kenny Golladay
$6,000
vs DET (14th)
Kenny Golladay was a late add to this article. When I became aware that both the Saints #1 & 2 corners are out this week I realized that this is going to be one of those explosion games for Kenny G. After a good performance in his first week back I feel confident putting him into my lineup. This game is projected to be a shootout as it has one of the highest over/unders (54) on the week. Stafford is going to be slinging it and I see a huge game from Kenny G coming.
WR: Brandin Cooks/Will Fuller
$4,500 $5,900
vs MIN (30th)
The Texans wideouts have a dream matchup vs a Vikings defense who is allowing the third most points to fantasy WR's. Brandin Cooks at 4.5k seems to be the value but I also love Fuller this week because he brings upside that you can't really find anywhere else. In the two games that Fuller has finished he has averaged 18.8 PPG. That was in two extremely tough matchups vs the Chiefs and Steelers. I am expecting a huge week from Fuller and a great week from Cooks as well. At their price you should easily be able to fit them into your lineups.
WR: DJ Moore
$5,600
vs ARI (4th)
DJ Moore has fallen all the way down to 5.6k. I'm telling you guys, this is the time to take advantage of this. DJ has had a rough start to the year but I still have 100% belief in him. In week 1 he saw 9 targets but just couldn't convert on them. In week 2 he saw 13 targets and put up a great performance. In week 3 the Panthers were ahead all game and he also had a very tough matchup vs the Chargers. This has allowed his price to fall. Despite the rough start Moore still ranks 9th among WR in targets. This is the week guys. With a high game total of 51.5 Moore should have all the opportunity in the world to succeed in week four!
TE: TJ Hockenson
$4,800
vs NO (32nd)
This is the one guys. TJ Hockenson needs to be in every single one of your DFS lineups this week. I don't care who you think is a better value or will score more points because you are wrong. TJ Hockenson goes up against the Saints who have allowed by far the most points to fantasy tight ends this year. He is on the verge of breaking out and I am confident that this is the week he explodes onto the scene. He is running almost 30 routes per game and ranks 8th in yards per route running showing how efficient he is with the routes he is running. Trust me on this, play Hockenson.
