- Garrett Wilson $4,300 – Wilson burned a lot of people last week so maybe we get him at a bit of an ownership discount this week. The Jets benched Zach Wilson and I think that could help Garrett Wilson here and he is only $4.3k on DraftKings. Corey Davis is back this week so they will have all their WRs healthy, but Wilson is the guy who has shown the most upside. DFS ARMY has him projected as one of the highest-owned WRs on the slate, but I might need one of these 3 cheap WRs in my cash lineup this week and we have Wilson as the top Fpts/$ play under $5k.
- Treylon Burks $4,200 – Burks caught 7 of his 8 targets last week for 111 yards and 21.1 DK points. The Titans are 3-point home underdogs this week and Burks is the only pass catcher on the team I have any interest in, and this game script could lead to them passing trying to catch up. There are a few Bengals that I want exposure to this week and Burks is a great run back or mini stack option at $4.2k. As long as he is healthy then I would expect him to be the top WR on the team for the rest of the season and if he puts up another 100-yard bonus game, we won’t see this salary on him again.

- Nico Collins $4,100 – Nico Collins has caught 5 passes in back-to-back weeks and he could lead the team in target share the rest of the season. He hasn’t shown a high ceiling but he seems good for 6-15 DK points every week and this is a cheap price tag that helps us pay up for Dolphins players if Miami is a team we are looking to stack. I don’t see myself using Collins if I don’t have any Dolphins players in my lineup, but they are a top offense for me to target this week with a 30.5-point total and Collins is the only guy on the Texans offense that I would want in my player pool.
- Hayden Hurst $3,300 – The Bengals could rely on the passing game more this week with Joe Mixon out with a concussion. The Titans are an easy defense to pass on and Hayden Hurst is the cheap option at $3.3k who is playable in all formats. We have him as the top Fpts/$ play at TE under $5k this week and I will be looking to get exposure to this Bengals offense. Even a mini-stack with Hurst and Burks allows us to do whatever we want with the rest of our lineups. I am not a big Hurst guy but this price tag and matchup do stick out.
- Jerick McKinnon $4,700 – I usually don’t use RBs under $5k but with Clyde Edwards-Helaire being put on IR, that leaves Isiah Pacheco to take over the rushing game and he only has 3 receptions this season. Jerick McKinnon will be the pass-catching back in a pass-heavy offense. He will be unowned this week and he is a cheap stack piece that we can pair with Patrick Mahomes. He isn’t a cash game play but he could be a sneaky GPP play if this is the offense we are looking to stack. McKinnon has seen over 50% of snaps in 4 games this season and he out-snapped Pacheco last week 34 to 26.
