Week 2 Fanduel Cash Picks
Quarterback
Aaron Rodgers vs Lions ($7,900)
In Week 1 Rodgers looked absolutely incredible. I try not to fall in love with recency bias but Rodgers is my guy this week. He gets another phenomenal matchup against Detroit, which is very bad versus the pass, and he gets to play at home. Vegas has this games over/under at 48.5 and the packers favored by 6, making it extremely hard not to love Rodgers for cash games.
Running Backs
Derek Henry vs Jaguars ($8,300)
Derek Henry is an absolute smash spot this week vs The Jaguars, which rank 26th against the run after Week 1. Derek Henry posted what seemed like a quiet game in Week 1 vs the Broncos, but still had 31 carries for 116 yards. In Week 2 he gets to play at home against The Jaguars, this ones another no brainer for cash.
Jonathan Taylor vs Vikings ($5,800)
The Colts lost running back Marlon Mack for the season in Week 1 due to a torn achilles. Johnathan Taylor was popular in season long fantasy drafts this year, and now he will get a larger role. After the injury to Mack he had 15 carries in the second half. The Vikings defense was all around bad in Week 1, they lost their expected starting nose tackle Michael Peirce, who decided to opt out due to Covid. Daniel Hunter also missed Week 1 with an injury, his status is unclear for Week 2.
Wide Receivers
Devante Adams vs Lions ($8,600)
Starting to see a trend here? Devante Adams has a great floor in this game, he lines up all over the field, he’s the closest Wide Receiver to being matchup proof. The Lions secondary was bad to begin with and now they are injured. Rookie Jeff Okudah is battling a hamstring issue, along with Desmond Trufant. Rodgers to Adams we should hear that alot in Week 2.

Amari Cooper vs Falcons ($7,000)
I always love to target Wide Receivers vs Atlanta, and it has continued to work out. Many people were down on Cooper this year with all of the new shiny toys in Dallas, but I’m not one of them, look cooper had 14 target in Week 1 and caught 10 balls against the Rams, now gets a matchup against Atlanta.
Tight End
Dalton Schultz vs Falcons ($4,000)
Normally I’m not to fond on heading to value town for cash, but I will here with Dalton Schultz. He is a min price Tight End for Dallas in a great matchup who had 4 targets in 3 quarters . Dalton Schultz should be a safe roll of the dice.
Defense
LA Rams vs Eagles ($4,500)
Defense is always kind of a crap shot. In Week 1 the top Defense was that football team from Washington. The Eagles seems to always turn the ball over at least twice, and Aaron Donald is absolutely incredible. Adding Jalen Ramsey doesn’t hurt either.
