DraftKings Week 6

by

Who had Claypool in Week 5 in DraftKings? The Canadian sensation celebrated Canuck Thanksgiving with a bounty of 4 exceptional touchdowns. Did you have him in your fantasy? Neither did I.
Here are some of the picks I have in store for week 6 in the NFL.

QBs

Ryan Fitzpatrick $5900

Are you mad Wade? Taking Fitzmagic as a DK starter? Well, he is playing the Jets, and after the points he dumped on San Fran last week, I like his momentum at home. Fitzpatrick has been having fun this season, and you can see it in the way Flores makes his plays. The Jets are trash, and the Dolphins should have some fun here.

Kirk Cousins $6100

You like that? Not so much, I mean the Vikings have really struggled this year, but their ship will come in this week as they host the Atlanta Falcons. Atlanta has been a defensive mess this season, allowing more points than a drunken fencer. I like matching Cousins with the Thielen for maximum points.

RBs

David Montgomery $5800

Montgomery hasn’t really had much of a break out this season, as the Bears haven’t really racked up too many points. That could change Sunday, as the Bears visit the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers have allowed 133 rushing yards per game, which will only get worse this week. Hopefully they use him more in the slot option, rather than trying to bum rush Patterson for short gains.

Alexander Mattison $7200

He’s pretty pricey considering that it’s his first start as RB1, but the Vikings are facing the Falcons who struggle to contain the rush all season. Mattison will see loads of carries, and should gash the Falcons worse than 2020 has devastated the sports bar industry. I like him for at least 2 TDs.

DeVante Parker $6300

Miami is playing New York Jets, this game is going to be score-ific. Parker is the fave target of Fitzpatrick and he will easily find open holes in the Jets D. Loads of yards and maybe a few TDs to boot. Can’t go wrong for $6300.

WRs

Adam Thielen $7300

Stealin’ Thielen will look for loads of yards today as Hot-Lanta will be a steaming dump of hot on Sunday to control him. Atlanta sucks, and his pairing with Cousins will give you plenty o’points in this contest. ‘Contest’ is a funny word, since this game looks to be anything but.

Kenny Golladay $6200

Jacksonville has been falling apart as of late, as Minshew struggles anytime he doesn’t have a healthy Chark Jr. at his disposal. Gollday is Stafford’s favourite man, an he will see plenty of passes against a Jacksonville secondary who gushes zone coverage. He’s a good value for the number 1 receiver in this game.

DeVante Parker $6300

Miami is playing New York Jets, this game is going to be score-ific. Parker is the fave target of Fitzpatrick and he will easily find open holes in the Jets D. Loads of yards and maybe a few TDs to boot. Can’t go wrong for $6300.

TEs

Evan Engram $4900

Pretty much the only guy that Daniel Jones can hit on the field since he barely goes further than 8 yards a play. Engram is also the only player that can actually catch, so he is useful in short yardage. The Giants have proven they can score, they just can’t win.

Robert Tonyan $5100

Tonyan exploded 2 weeks ago for 3 touchdowns, so it’s unlikely he will match those highs, but he should be able to snag at least a TD. Rodgers will target RT often, which will also add to your point tally on the day.

DEF

Dolphins $2900

They’re playing the Jets. Last week the Miami D picked off Jimmy G so much, they pulled him from the game. Joe Flacco won’t have much success against this squad who are pumped up from recent victories, including the beat down from last week.

DraftKings Week 4

Week 4 of the NFL is here, and it’s time to get your DraftKings picks ready so that you can either win big, or just play for free. Make sure you join our DraftKings League.

Injuries were the star of the NFL in week 3, with loads of teams getting handbagged and some serious ouchies that have taken some players out of the season. If there was a way to bet on ACL Injuries, you could make some serious cash…all while being a sick mofo.

When you’re looking at who to target for Week 4 it’s always good to look at who the worst teams are, and who they are playing. Chances are that team is going to give up a bucket load of points.
You should also look at pairing a good QB with a WR, as those combinations are going to increase your point value.
Let’s take a look at some of the key players to target in week 4.

QB

Russell Wilson $7800

The best QB in the league is playing one of the worst teams in the league, which smells plenty of points to go around. RW has as many TDs as all the QBs in the NFC East, which gives you an idea of how good he is. $7800 isn’t that bad considering he got 5 TDs last week. Miami will struggle to contain him, and the only downside is they might rest Wilson if they go up by 40 points.

Nick Foles $5700

Big Dick Nick might be facing one of the top D’s in the league, but this is Foles dang it. Yes, the Colts looked great…against the Jets last week, but this is a whole different story. Foles has better pocket awareness that Trubisky, so he will look to hit some medium yardage passes to break up their zone. Good value at $5700.

RB

Joe Mixon $5800

Mixon has had a less than stellar start for the Bengals, no thanks to the porous O line. Luckily he is facing the Jaguars this week who are very weak against the run. Look for Burrow to establish Mixon as the secondary of the Jags might give him some trouble. Mixon should score at least 1 TD.

Myles Gaskin $5000

A Miami player against the Seahawks? Yep. The secondary of the Hawks will be focused on picking off Fitzmagic, which should open some opportunities for Gaskin who already has 152 yards this year. He’s a great value at $5000 as the Dolphins have no choice but to use him.

WR

DK Metcalf $6800

Metcalf has to be kicking himself after letting the ball get smacked out of his hands in the end zone last week.
DK is a huge, fast receiver who will give Miami plenty of problems on Sunday. The Dolphins will most likely smother Tyler Lockett, giving Metcalf plenty of opportunities.

Andy Isabella $4500 

Who? That’s right, Andy had 2 TDs last week to increase his performance heading into week 4. Chances are Hopkins will be getting double coverage, which means this speedster will find himself open at many times.
He’s a good deal at $4500, and perfect if you’re trying to save some space.

TE

Jimmy Graham $3800

Is Jimmy back? It sure seems so, as both Foles and Trubisky were able to find the big man last week against the Falcons. He’s a veteran, so you know that Foles is going to find him on short yardage and redzone situations.

Darren Waller $5200

More on the pricey side, Waller will factor heavily as the Raiders figure out ways to beat the Bills. He’s a big dude with big hands, let’s just hope he can stay healthy.

DEF

LA Rams $3900

The Rams are playing the Giants, which is all you need to really know. Aaron Donald will make a mess out of poor Daniel Jones, and it’s likely that Jones will have another no good, truly bad day.

DraftKings Tips

by

Are you ready for some fantasy NFL for Week 3? The way that 2020 has been going, fantasy has been a hell of a lot better than reality. I’m here to give you some of my top tips for Sunday in the NFL.

Week 2 was a bit of a shit show, as teams were decimated by injuries to key people. While that doesn’t look good for the overall fantasy outlook, it does mean that some hidden gems could help make your DraftKings line-up this week. Here are some of my top tips to get you through week 3.

QBs

Nick Mullens $5100

Jimmy G and 40% of the 49ers squad is off this week, but it’s ok because they are playing the Giants.
I actually like the Giants to win this game, but that doesn’t matter that much in this pick. Mullens is a noodle armed backup that is surprisingly accurate in short to medium yardage. He won’t have much to throw to, but he will be able to get a few points off that crummy New York D.

Justin Herbert $5900

I really like this kid, he impressed last week and was fortunate enough not to get stabbed on the lung by the team doctor. Herbert is facing a weak Carolina D, and should be able to exploit some big holes & rack up some big points. For $5900 he’s a steal.

RBs

Jonathan Taylor $7000

This rookie has been ripping it up for the Colts, and he should find huge yardage against the garbage bag Jets. He’s well worth the $7k, as he will probably factor in at least 2 scores today.

Dion Lewis $5300

Saquon is gone, and the new guy is still getting use to the system, so look to see Lewis a lot in this game. The 49ers D is still fast enough to get to Jones, so he will need an option to toss the ball off easily.

WRs

TY Hilton $5600

Phillip Rivers and the Colts look to dismantle the Jets, so we should see TY Hilton ripping apart that ravaged secondary. At $5600 he is quite the steal.

Anthony Miller $4900

The Bears will look to exploit the big holes in Atlanta, and the speedy Miller has been a frequent target for Trubisky. This game should have a lot of points, so Miller will probably score a TD in this game.

TEs

Austin Hooper $4400

The Browns will be looking to smack up some points on Washington, and they are notoriously bad at covering the TE position. Look for Hooper to blast his way into the end zone in this game.

Hunter Henry $4800

A little pricier, but Henry will be a big target for Herbert in this game. He is a key player in redbone touches, and should factor heavily in this game.

DEF

Buccaneers $3700

These guys are fast, so when faced with an O line like that of the Broncos with a backup QB, they should factor heavily in getting to the QB. Loads of sacks in this one.

Make sure you join our DraftKings League, so that you can play for free and cash every week.

DraftKings-Week 2 Picks

by

It’s time to pick some Fantasy fellas for Week 2, after some of the amazing performances (& ridiculous injuries) in Week 1, I am a little more prepared for this week.
If you want to play along with us, join our DraftKings League ‘NFL in London’, it’s a fun group with free and paid contests to whet your fantasy appetite.

https://dkn.gs/r/kwxDR0JIokKPkA6cPjCtNA

Here are some of my picks to look at for Week 2 in DraftKings.

QB

Aaron Rodgers $6900

After the smokeshow he laid on the Vikings, it’s hard to imagine Rodgers dropping his numbers against the Lions. After the Bears and Trubisky laid on multiple 4th quarter touchdowns last week, AR should have a good 4 TD game. Compared to Mahomes, he’s a pretty good value.

Josh Allen $6700

He can throw, he can run, he is the Buffalo chicken wing. Allen is facing the woeful Dolphins this week, which means that he should be able to feast on their dolphin meat like Cam Newton did last week. If Cam can run the fins ragged by using his feet, Allen will also look to have a pretty good ground day. Unlike Cam, Allen has some great receivers who will turn and burn the field all day. The only worry I have is Miami plays unusually well at home in September with humidity and hurricane season working to their advantage.

RBs

Nyheim Hines $5300

With Marlon Mack going down last week, Nyheim Hines & Jonathan Taylor jump up the ranks to 1 & 2. Look for Rivers to use them both effectively against the Vikings defence. Minnesota was weak against the run last week against the Packers, so look for this 1-2 punch of guys to punch the Vikes in the face. Hines should get a couple of short run TDs.

Todd Gurley $6100

Gurley was able to find success against the Seahawks last week, so he should be able to continue grabbing points against the Cowboys this week. Gurley is a great distraction for Matt Ryan as he can be used effectively on the run and in short passing situations.

Miles Sanders $6000

Will he play or will he stay now? Sanders practised this week fully, which is a good sign for any fantasy fans. The Eagles will need him against the fierce front of the Rams who threw Zeke around last week. He still might not be fully used, but if he is, he will be good value for short yard TDs.

WRs

Robby Anderson $5200

Anderson has his groove back thanks to Teddy B and the Panthers. He was wicked last week going 6/8 114 yards and a touchdown. The Bucs were torched by the Saints receivers last week, so Robby could get a few yards while Tampa figures out how to stop McCaffery.

Darius Slayton $5000

Slayton was on fire in Week 1 against the Steelers, going 6/9, 102 yards and 2 touchdowns. If he can get that against Pittsburgh, then the Bears will have to look out. They got burned hard by Stafford last week, and Slayton will carve them up if they don’t figure out how to stop him.

Davante Adams $8100

Rodgers number one guy will be his number one target against the Lions on Sunday, and he will be poised for another big performance. Even if they double team Adams, he still finds ways to make ridiculous catches. He had 156 yards and 2 TDs last week, he can probably top that this week.

TE

Tyley Higbee $4700

The big man on the Rams was an often target for Goff last week for some pretty nifty catches. He is bound to make some bigger plays against an Eagles team that struggles to contain good tight ends.

Zach Ertz $5600

And on the other side of the ball, the guy the Eagles will look to in short and long yard situations. Heck, Wentz will look for him all day. He’s a little pricier, but he’s sure to get at least one TD on Sunday.

DEF

Buccaneers $2900

Sure, they got torched by the Saints last week, but they were able to put some pressure on Brees to be able to stay in the game. The Panthers have a very weak O-line, so look for the Bucs D to get to Teddy B and disrupt some big plays.

DraftKings Week 1

by

The NFL is back, and so is your chance to win some money playing in our DraftKings Fantasy NFL contests. We have loads of great offers with DraftKings, including our deposit $10 get $10 back offer.
Adding Fantasy Football to your NFL week just makes things more fun, especially if you want to trash talk your friends.

To celebrate the start of the season, I have made some tips and picks to help you get some value with your DFS this weekend. Make sure you join our NFL in London League on DraftKings, where you can win cash and prizes. Hopefully we will also have a live event or two this season depending on how this whole nasty virus affects us all.

Here are some of my top picks to look at for Week 1.

QB

There are a lot of key match-ups to kick off week 1, so you want to make sure that you are getting value with every pick you make. In terms of QBs you want to see which guys are playing the worst D’s, then you can find out which guy is going to get you some solid points.

Joe Burrow-$5800

Welcome to the NFL Joe, first up is the speedy Chargers D-line. You ready? Surprisingly I think that he will be. Joe has loads of (old) tools at his disposal which should give the Chargers backfield some problems. If Joe Mixon can mix it up, it will take pressure off of Burrow who should have some time to hit some of his WRs downfield. He’s pretty good value for what he should produce.

Phillip Rivers-$6000

This is also Phillip Rivers first game, just not his first ever. Bolstered by one of the top O-lines in the league, Rivers should have lots of time to connect with TY Hilton down the field, burning the Jags D relentlessly. I see this as a high scoring game, so Rivers should factor in at least 3 TDs.

RB

Running backs have declined in the past few years in terms of points scored and definitiveness, so it’s hard to try to find the true value backs instead of splashing out on the big boys who can be inconsistent.

Sony Michel-$4600

Cam Newton will be looking to use his legs against the Fins, so who knows who he will be dishing off to. At $4600 Michel is a steal, as Cam will probably use him in short yard situations which could mean a few TDs.

Miles Sanders-$6300

A bit pricier for a guy who is still dealing with a lower body issue. Sanders is one of my faves for an outrageous season of fantasy points, and I like him to gash the frontline of the Washington D. Look for him to gain some big ground and even bigger points

WR

DeSean Jackson-$4900

The Eagles speedster may have declined slightly over the years, but he still stands up as the go to guy for Wentz. He has the potential to snag the deep ball and run ragged over the Washington team, causing mayhem throughout the game. Good value at $4900.

TY Hilton-$5800

As mentioned earlier, TY Hilton is now matched with the arm of Phillip Rivers. Given that these guys will have been practising all summer, I see them being in a good rhythm for a solid victory over the hapless Jags. At $5800 he should be good for a score of two.

TE

Jack Doyle-$3600

With Burton injured for the Colts, Rivers has another fine target in Jack Doyle. He’s quick, strong and will give the Jags midfield plenty of headaches. A steal at $3600.

Hayden Hurst-$4300

With Austin Hooper banged up, Hurst will be looking to fill some pretty big boots. Hurst has the wheels and hands to satisfy Matt Ryan and should feature heavily as they cross the Seahawks midfield.

DEF

Vikings-$2500

But they’re facing Aaron Rodgers! Yes, but they also have an incredible secondary that looks to feast on tip balls and ill-timed passes. For $2500 they will be able to put pressure on AR, and probably pick off a ball or two as well.

Bears-$3300

Sticking with the NFC North, the Bears are facing the broken back of Matt Stafford. They will apply plenty of pressure on MS, and Mack will be looking to toss the often injured QB around all day.
