This is your DFS Minute for NFL Week 10. Here are my Draftkings, Fanduel, and Owners Box lineups for the Sunday slate of games.
May you find this week’s lineups to be helpful in putting some cash in your pockets. Last week for our DFS Minute Week 9 both the Fanduel and Draftkings lineups made some money. I swapped Elijah Mitchell out with Mixon in Fanduel and Boston Scott in Draftkings.
Quarterback
Dak Prescott, Fanduel -$8,100/Draftkings -$6,900
Dak Prescott struggled last week against Denver after coming back from a week off against the Vikings. Prescott threw for 232 yards, but still managed two touchdowns. I am fully expecting a bounce-back week for the Cowboys quarterback. I have Prescott with a 300-yard passing day to go with 2-3 touchdowns.
Running Backs
Javonte Williams, Fanduel -$5,800/Draftkings -$5,000
Dalvin Cook, Fanduel -$8,500/Draftkings -$8,000
We finally saw that 100 yard game from Javonte Williams. He received 17 carries to Melvin Gordon’s 21. The Eagles have allowed the fourth-most points to running backs in fantasy football this season. I expect another solid running day from the Broncos and Williams.
I initially had Nick Chubb in this spot this week but after the Covid designation, I have moved him out for Dalvin Cook. If for some reason Chubb was to be active on Sunday I would play him over Cook. Cook finished last week against the Ravens with 110 yards. The Chargers are not good against running backs this season and Cook is a great play.
Wide Receivers
Cole Beasley, Fanduel -$6,100/Draftkings -$5,200
Michael Pittman Jr, Fanduel -$7,200/Draftkings -$6,300
Keenan Allen, Fanduel -$7,200/Draftkings -$7,000
Cole Beasley has been Josh Allen’s favorite target the last two weeks. He received ten plus targets each week. Last week Beasley had eight catches but only 33 yards. Beasley comes at a great value this week and the target share alone is worth your play this week.
In the last three weeks, Michael Pittman has had four touchdowns. Pittman has six games this season with five or more catches. The second-year receiver has turned into a Carson Wentz favorite and is also a deep threat. Play him against the Jaguars this week.
Keenan Allen makes a second consecutive appearance in the DFS Minute this week. Allen has a juicy matchup against the Vikings this week and should see the primary share of targets. Last week Allen caught 12 passes on 13 targets and eclipsed 100 yards. Allen is slowly turning into an every-week play as the season progresses.
Tight End/D/ST
Pat Freiermuth,Fanduel -$5,100/Draftkings -$3,900
Titans, D/ST Fanduel -$4,100/Draftkings -$2,600
Pat Freiermuth is beginning to turn some heads. With Eric Ebron out, Freiermuth has been the benefactor. In the last three weeks, he has seen games of seven, seven, and six targets. He has three touchdowns in that timeframe. The tight-end landscape is a game of roulette each week if you do not want to spend the money. Freiermuth still has incredible value on each site.
The Tennessee Titans will not be the sexiest defensive pick this week but there are some factors that could lead them to be a top defense this week at a great price. Alvin Kamara’s status is in question and the Saints are on backup quarterbacks. I am playing the Titans anywhere I can this week.
Flex
Mike Evans, Fanduel -$7,400
D’Ernest Johnson, Draftkings -$4,700
On Fanduel we are rolling with Mike Evans at the flex. In Draftkings it will be D’Ernest Johnson. Mike Evans has been worth every penny this season and there’s a chance the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be without Antonio Brown and Chris Godwin this week. Johnson is a flat-out steal at his price this week if Nick Chubb is out. If for some reason Chubb plays, I would pivot to Donovan Peoples-Jones in the flex on Draftkings.
Values and Honorable Mentions
Matt Ryan, QB, Fanduel – $7,300/Draftkings – $6,000
Antonio Gibson. RB, Fanduel – $6,200/Draftkings – $5,500
Terry McLaurin, WR, Fanduel – $7,100/Draftkings – $7,600
DeVonta Smith, WR, Fanduel – $6,200/Draftkings $5,900
Donovan Peoples-Jones, WR, Fanduel – $5,600/Draftkings – $4,800
Hunter Henry, TE, Fanduel – $5,400/Draftkings – $4,100
I would not fault you for adding any of the above-mentioned players to your lineup this week. They all hold incredible value. If I were to try to switch it up at all, Terry McLaurin is the player I would get in my lineup.
