Each week I will provide my Draftkings NFL Cash Game plays for the week. I will provide one play at each position (QB, RB, WR, and TE). Defenses should be picked last and I never consider a defense a must play for cash game purposes.
These cash plays can be supplemented by the top stacks and value plays that are released later in the week. Please note, a ton can (and will) change between article posting and kickoff, follow me on Twitter for all my thoughts on additional plays before lineups lock.
QUARTERBACK
Alex Smith ($5,300) Washington Football Team vs. Cincinnati Bengals:
I shudder when typing out Alex Smith. However, last week he threw for almost 400 yards and he gets another very soft matchup. At his price, you don’t even need 300 yards to pay it off. A little more risky than I usually prefer in cash, but his savings allow you to pick plenty of studs at other positions.
RUNNING BACK
Dalvin Cook ($9,000) Minnesota Vikings vs. Dallas Cowboys:
Minnesota is a touchdown favorite at home against a struggling Cowboys offense. It doesn’t get much better than that. Some people may be off Cook after he struggled on Monday Night but to me he is the best spend up on the slate with value cropping up in other areas.
WIDE RECEIVER
Brandin Cooks ($5,200) Houston Texans vs. New England Patriots:
Cooks has seen approx. 8 targets a game since Bill O was fired. This week he gets another soft matchup in a dome that should be a shootout. I also like Jakobi on the other side of this game, consider that a bonus pick as a Thanksgiving gift.
TIGHT END

Mark Andrews ($4,900), Baltimore Ravens vs. Tennessee Titans:
Another good game environment which should see plenty of scoring Last year, Mark was priced around 6K the entire year. He has struggled halfway through the season but this is the spot he gets right and he still carries his typical massive upside as a top 3 TE. You wont get that type of production at 4.9K very often.
