Salary:$50,000 15 games Sunday-Monday
GCF DFS Picks
QB: Justin Herbert(6,700) This one is a no-brainer. 2 high powered offenses just ready to put up massive amounts of points on the board. Usually I don’t like paying up for QB but this one is worth it I expect a high scoring output from both sides
RB: Najee Harris (6,300 I love what I saw from Najee Harris’s usage in week 1. He is the lead back and no one is going to challenge him and for this price the usage will eventually break big on the stat sheet. I think this is the week against the raiders who let up a few big runs to the Ravens last week.
RB2: Elijah Mitchell(5,000) The 49ers love running backs and with Mostert out for the season I think Elijah Mitchell is going to be a stud. Trey sermon wasn’t active so clearly they saw something in Elijah Mitchell. For this price he’s guaranteed to prove worth it. The 49ers love running the ball and Elijah Mitchell is in the driver’s seat to take over the backfield for the rest of the season.
WR1: Allen Robinson (6,200) I expect better from the Bears this week. I expect Justin Fields to take over at some point in this game. Robinson is going to get his and will force feed him this game. This price is fairly cheap for what Allen Robinson is capable of so I would jump on this.
WR2: Marquez Calloway (4,200) This is a homerun waiting to happen. The price is too good. Calloway had a great preseason but didn’t do anything in week 1. His price let’s us spend up at TE and flex this week. I feel he is going to explode onto the scene with the Saints having to throw more this week.
WR3: Jaylen waddle (4,500) Waddle had a great first game of his NFL career. The Dolphins are going to have to throw the ball a lot this week. The Bills are going to be pissed off coming off a loss and that means the Dolphins will have to throw. With Will Fuller out again Waddle should take advantage as a top target for this Dolphins team.
TE: Darren Waller (7,600) I love Waller. He is a true talent and I’d put him and Kelce in the same tier. Waller is a mismatch all over and Carr absolutely loves him. We grabbed some great deals at other positions to spend up here. I feel this will pay off dividends in the end!
FLEX: Keenan Allen (7,000) Doubling down here on another Charger. This stack was massive last year and I feel this game is going to have one of the highest over/unders of the season. Keenan Allen is a PPR machine and I expect a couple of TD’s in this game as well, fire this stack up.
DEFENSE: New England Patriots (3,700) I am going with the Patriots this week. Playing the Jets and Bill Belichick loves to go up against rookie QB’s. I expect a low scoring game with a few turnovers for the Patriots defense who look to get back on track after a loss in week 1.
The value this week is Antonio Brown sitting at $6,000!! I am unsure how he is so cheap after his monster week 1. All the talk this off season was how good AB looked and to have him priced as a WR2 at best? Get him in your lineup if you can I expect another big game for him
The QB/WR stack to have this week 2 is Dak and Ceedee Lamb. This game is going to be high scoring. Dak looked great last week and showed no signs of rust. Ceedee is poised for an even bigger year 2 with Gallup out for a few weeks. 13,200 is the combined priced for these 2 and that’s only a little over a 1⁄5 of a DFS salary for 2 fantasy superstars. Get in on this stack and enjoy the rewards!
