NFL, Top Quarterback Picks
Cash Games: Josh Allen, QB, Buffalo Bills ($7.8K at DraftKings, $9K at FanDuel)
The Buffalo Bills don’t have a run game in the traditional sense. Josh Allen is Buffalo’s offensive end, both in the air and on the ground. Josh Allen is almost a sure thing.
Tournament: Joe Burrow, QB, Cincinnati Bengals ($6.5K at DraftKings, $8K at FanDuel)
Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals are hot. The Bengals haven’t lost an NFL game in over two months, and they won’t be intimidated by the Buffalo Bills. Expect Joe Burrow to be the catalyst for the Tigers’ offense in the penalty shootout.
NFL, Top Running Back Picks
Cash Games: Joe Mixon, RB, Cincinnati Bengals ($6.5K at DraftKings, $7.7K at FanDuel)
Joe Mixon was the chalk play at RB. Samaje Perine, while more involved in the offense, is a far cry from Buffalo’s split backfield. Given the number of Joe Mixon acquisitions and the way he beat the Bills on the ground, a Joe Mixon ceiling game could be around the corner.
Tournament: James Cook, RB, Buffalo Bills ($4.8K for DraftKings, $5.8K for FanDuel)
Why James Cook and not Devin Singletary? With new information, we must adjust our priors. Increasingly involved in the offense, James Cook is a better receiver than Devin Singletary in a game where the Bills may need a linebacker as a receiver.
NFL, wide receivers and tight ends
Cash Games: Stefon Diggs, WR, Buffalo Bills ($7.7K at DraftKings, $8.2K at FanDuel)
Stefon Diggs is Josh Allen’s right-hand man. Allen leaned on Stephen Diggs in one of the game’s most critical moments. In a potentially high-scoring event, look for Stefon Diggs to have a capped result.
Tournament: Ja’Marr Chase, WR, Cincinnati Bengals ($7.8K from DraftKings, $8.5K from FanDuel)
Ja’Marr Chase is a great play every week, no matter the format, but it’s important to discuss why Stefon Diggs is a better cash game play and why Ja’Marr Chase is a better tournament play style of play. In Buffalo, Josh Allen was inherently dependent on Steven Diggs. In Cincinnati, Joe Burrow relies on Ja’Marr Chase. Burrow has a wide variety of weapons to throw. With Tre’ White and Ja’Marr Chase all over the floor, it makes sense to target Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd more often to take advantage of the game. Burrow’s luxury weapon makes Ja’Marr Chase a more volatile option than Stefon Diggs, despite having a higher ceiling.
