DFS NFL Week 5 Cash Game Plays for DraftKings and FanDuel 10/7/20

DFSR's NFL Daily Fantasy Podcast

Week 5 is here, and Doug and James are back to break down their cash game plays on DraftKings and FanDuel.

With the league swirling with uncertainty surrounding Covid-19, we should understand that these are preliminary looks at cash game selections. That being said, we do have a number of good options this week.

Quarterback looks to be a position we are going to pay up at again, with the usual suspects all looking like great plays in good match-ups. The guys discuss whether we can trust Dak's production given the wild game scripts the Cowboys have played, whether we can take a little savings and play Deshaun Watson, or even turn to Teddy Bridgewater on DraftKings.

Running back features a few interesting cheaper options in Mike Davis, Kareem Hunt, and Jerick McKinnon, with some nice expensive options in Ezekiel Elliott and Derrick Henry (if the Titans play, of course).

Wide receiver was more of a mixed bag, with Amari Cooper ($7,800 on FD) being the only expensive wide receiver entering into consideration. It looks like another week where we'll fill out our cash game rosters with cheaper or midrange options like Robby Anderson or Terry McLaurin.

Tight end looks to be a one man show this week, with George Kittle feeling a heck of a lot safer than the rest of the cheaper options. There's a chance we pivot to Jonnu Smith if the Titans actually play, but for now it looks like the rare week where we'll be paying up at tight end.
