QBs

Top Plays

Jaxson Dart $9,800
Shedeur Sanders $9,400
Arch Manning / Quinn Ewers $9,000
KJ Jefferson $8,900

• You have to pay up for these QBs but each one has potential to score 30+ Fantasy Points. Keep an eye out to see who the Longhorns starter will be because the matchup vs Mississippi State is an A+.

Best Value

Billy Edwards Jr $7,700
Kurtis Rourke $7,500
Jalon Daniels $7,500
Miller Moss $7,300

• This is the range I usually live in with QBs. All of these plays have excellent value and an affordable price. I really like Rourke & Moss here but Edwards and Daniels have upside with their running abilities.

Longshot Play

Dylan Raiola $6,400

• DraftKings mispriced the talented True Freshman and 6.4K is an unbelievable price, it’s tons of value here and I’ll have a lot of shares of Raiola.

RBs

Top Plays

Ollie Gordon II $9,200
RJ Harvey $8,900

• Gordon II has been horrible this season but the Wildcats gave up 5.1 ypc to BYU RB Sione Moa last week and this could be the week he gets things going and I’d hate to be late on a 125 yard 2 TD game. RJ Harvey is the best RB play on the slate in my opinion and he should get 25 touches or more in this one. 

Best Value

Jadon Blue $7,400
Kalel Mullings $7,200
Woody Marks $7,100
Henry Parrish Jr $6,800
Devin Neal $6,600

• Blue has an A+ matchup and always has potential for a big game like last week. I expect the Longhorns to score 45+ points and he could easily get 2 or more goal line scores. Mullings has stepped up as the RB1 for Michigan, I believe he could be a popular pick though so I’ll look to get contrarian and pivot to Woody Marks at 7.1K. Marks is a receiving RB and last week he had double digit targets. Neal at 6.6K provides excellent value and I’ll look to have a few shares of him.

Longshot Plays

Le’Veon Moss $6,000
Dante Dowdell $5,600

• Moss is averaging 15.4 FPPG and I like his matchup vs Arkansas. If you don’t play Dylan Raiola at QB then you should have plenty of shares of Dowdell who is the RB1 for Nebraska and the matchup is excellent.

WR/TE

Top Plays

Travis Hunter $10,100
Tre Harris $9,100

• Travis Hunter is an outstanding player but it’s no value paying this much for one player. Hunter would need 12 catches for 200 yards 3 TDs to pay off this price tag and as talent as he is I doubt that happens. If you want to play one of these two then Harris for $1,000 cheaper is the play. 

Best Value Plays

Tai Felton $7,700
Kobe Hudson $7,300
Jack Bech $7,200
Jimmy Horn Jr $6,100
LaJohntay Wester $5,900
De’Zhaun Stribling $5,800
Elijah Sarratt $5,500
Antwane Wells Jr $5,000
Zachariah Branch $5,000

• Felton is averaging 36.4 FPPG, It’s no way he can keep that pace going but he will get 12+ targets and is worth stacking with Billy Edwards Jr. I don’t like paying 10.1K for Travis Hunter and I’d much rather pivot to Horn Jr at 6.1K or Wester at 5.9K. Sarratt at 5.5K is someone I’m stacking with Rourke in many lineups of mine and Zachariah Branch at 5K is a cheap stacking option with Miller Moss.

Longshot Plays

Isaiah Bond $4,800
Myles Price $4,600
Kaden Prather $4,500
Jahmal Banks $3,900
Max Klare $3,900
Lawrence Arnold $3,800
Bauer Sharp $3,700

• Bond is the WR1 for Texas and 4.8K is an absolute joke of a price by DraftKings. Prather a 4.5K is a nice contrarian pivot from his teammate Tai Felton and you get him for a much cheaper price. I’m stacking Jahmal Banks with Dylan Raiola in a ton of lineups and it’s a cheap stack that allows you to afford higher priced players elsewhere. Max Klare at 3.9K is a good run back option on your Nebraska stacks and Lawrence Arnold at 3.8K is an absolute steal.
