It is hard to believe that week 4 of the college football season is already here. Now some patterns are emerging and the CFB fantasy picks should actually start to get a little easier for the experts.
Let us get down to the DraftKings plays of the day!
College Football Week 4 – DraftKings Plays of the Day – 12pm Games
Quarterback
1st tier – Seth Russell – Baylor – $9,700
I know his salary is high, but that is for a reason. He has averaged 4.5 TD’s a game with over 350 yards. He is almost a lock this week as Baylor should score at least 50 points against Rice. All Baylor knows to do is score lots of points. If for some reason you do not like Russell, check out Johnson from Bowling Green. Another Stud.
2nd tier- Skyler Howard – West Virginia – $6,800
A great value here, as the coach of WVU loves to score points. Just a few years ago they were the talk of the Big East, but now they are looked over more. I think 300 yards of total offense and a few TD’s are quite attainable. We will know more about WVU after this game, since their 1st two games were cupcakes.
Running Back
1st tier- Jordan Howard – Indiana – $8,400
You may not know it, but he is the leading rusher, yardage wise, right now. He gets the ball over 25 times a game with a better than you think Indiana offense. Many people will hammer LSU’s RB this week, but I am always leery of a guy coming off back to back 3 TD games. Stats do not lie. You cannot keep up that production.
2nd tier- Wendell Smallwood – West Virginia – $4,900
If you need a good value play he might be it. With 2 rushing TD’s and 8 catches as a RB, he is very versatile and will book you points. A great play in a 50/50 league, as he should get at least 10 fantasy points.

Wide Receiver
1st tier- Roger Lewis — Bowling Green – $7,400
BGSU is a very high-powered offense which loves to throw the ball 50 plus times a game. Lewis has 5 TD, 461 yards and 22 catches… over just the LAST 2 GAMES! A slightly tougher test against Purdue this week, but I like him combined with Matt Johnson if you end of starting him.
2nd tier–Devin Lauderdale — Texas Tech – $4,700
This game will be a shootout with TCU. Tech has so many WR’s it may be hard to pick a #1, but Lauderdale should get his during this contest. The over / under is 79, so you know everyone thinks the ball will be flying all over the field.
Sleeper– QB Mason Rudolph – Oklahoma State – $7,500
In a week with tons of great QB’s, you might be able to save some salary with picking Mason. Texas just gave up over 40 points to CAL and I think OK State could do the same.
