The DailyFantasyNerd FanDuel/DraftKings Cash Picks Week 10

While nothing is guaranteed, the further we go the more data we compile throughout the season and the better our betting should get in theory. Meaning, we now know who the consistently good offenses are, and conversely who the bad defenses are, thus giving us more predictable lineups. This week’s picks and stacks are not groundbreaking but instead are good, safe, dependable plays to get you into the money on some cash games in week 10.

The DailyFantasyNerd FanDuel/DraftKings Cash Picks Week 10

Quarterbacks

Patrick Mahomes (KC) VS AZ $9,800 FD/$7,200 DK

Surprisingly enough, despite Arizona’s less-than-stellar 2018 season, they are seventh against the pass in fantasy. Regardless, the safe bet is to keep riding the Chiefs and a stack that begins with Mahomes.

 

 

Philip Rivers (LAC) @ OAK $8,200 FD/$6,000 DK

Hard to not love these prices for a guy having a really good and consistent year who is about to face the 24th best pass defense. Rivers starts off stack number two.

Jared Goff (LAR) VS SEA $8,100 FD/$6,100 DK

Goff, like Mahomes, doesn’t exactly have the best matchup this weekend. With that said, divisional opponent, at home, and it’s hard to bet against Goff at this point. He starts stack three despite playing the sixth-best pass defense.

Aaron Rodgers (GB) VS MIA $8,600 FD/$6,400 DK

The Packers seem to be the kid in high school who waits until the night before to do the term paper, then crams all night and passes. Well, in terms of the Packers season, it’s pretty close to cramming time if they are going to make the playoffs. They’re desperate, they’re at home and they are facing the 22nd pass defense. Rodgers is the start to stack four.

 

Running Backs

Kareem Hunt (KC) VS AZ $9,000 FD/$8,500 DK

While Arizona has played the pass well, they are 31st this year against running backs. Just another reason to love the Kansas City Stack.

Melvin Gordon (LAC) @ OAK $8,900 FD/$9,000 DK

As appetizing as Hunt’s matchup is, Gordon does him one better going up against the 32nd defense against running backs. He’s part two of the Chargers stack.

Todd Gurley (LAR) VS SEA $10,800 FD/$9,400 DK

To reiterate, the Rams have a tough matchup. Seattle is ranked seventh against the run this season, but no one can stop Gurley. No one.

Aaron Jones (GB) VS MIA $6,500 FD/$5,000 DK

Jones has taken over the RB1 role in Green Bay, and with a matchup against the 28th ranked defense against running backs, and this cost, Jones is an obvious guy to be played this weekend. He’s part two of the Green Bay stack.

Wide Receivers

Keenan Allen (LAC) @ OAK $7,900 FD/$7,100 DK

Allen is averaging 12.24 points per game and is due for a big game. He provides a safe floor with huge upside in this matchup. He rounds out the Chargers Rivers-Gordon-Allen stack.

Brandin Cooks (LAR) VS SEA $7,700 FD/$6,700 DK 

Cooks is the guy to feel least confident about in the Rams stack, but he is averaging 14.68 points per game this year. If he has a big week, it will be a huge payoff for the Goff-Gurley-Cooks stack.

 

 

Davante Adamas (GB) VS MIA $8,600 FD/$7,800 DK

Adams is putting up 18 points per game in a receiving core that can’t seem to stay healthy with an ideal matchup. Get all the Adams shares you can this weekend. Rodgers-Jones-Adams should pay dividends as a stack on Sunday.

Tight Ends

Travis Kelce (KC) VS AZ $8,000 FD/$7,000 DK

As stated, Arizona is a good pass defense this season. With that said, Kelce leads all tight ends with 15.07 points per game and cannot be stopped. He rounds out the final stack of Mahomes-Hunt-Kelce.

O.J. Howard (TB) VS WAS $6,500 FD/$5,300 DK 

Looking for a budget-friendlier tight end play this weekend? Well, look no further. Howard, despite a revolving door at the QB position, is averaging 11.4 points per game this season. On top of that, he is home and playing the 20th ranked defense against the pass. At this price, Howard is a great play this weekend.

Defense

N.Y. Jets VS BUF $4,900 FD/$3,400

Steep price, but matching up at home against the Bills is just too juicy to pass up on.
