Here is my VIP exclusive week 4 player picks and notes for both Fanduel and Draftkings. This list is meant to be comprehensive and includes every player on the slate that I am considering using in my lineups. For each DFS Site the picks are broken down as follows:
Green Highlight = Chalk Player – Should have high ownership
Yellow Highlight – Player to consider in cash lineups
Brown Highlight – Punt Play – a high-risk low salary player worthy of consideration. These are low floor players with a “make value” ceiling
Red Highlight – Low ownership play exclusively for GPP lineups
Bold – Player’s in bold are my personal top picks from that site.
How To Use This List:
**Geek’s Note – I’m reiterating something that often causes confusion – My favorite plays of the week are in BOLD! The color coding is designed to help distinguish which players I think will be chalky this week compared to the others. The most important highlight is the Red because that’s more of a warning that the player is probably not a good cash or hybrid play this week.
My general rule of thumb is if you don’t see the player here you probably shouldn’t use them in your lineups. The list will keep you off of the worst donkey plays of the week. That alone should help your bottom line. You should look at this list as a guideline. Don’t focus too much on the highlights. This list releases early in the week so I may change my mind on some of these as the week progresses and new info becomes available. I generally post player updates and any ALL IN plays for the week in the #only-kevin-posts-here channel in our slack forums so make sure to check that prior to game time. Also, make sure to check in to our #nfl-player-updates channel for the latest injury news and player status reports.
