In addition to my weekly Yahoo! Cash plays article, I will be having a Bonus Bonanza! For DraftKings where I will highlight a popular play that should get the bonus (300 yards for QB, 100 yards for RB/WR/TE) and one not so popular play to help you crush your GPP’s. Remember to check out the tons of information that we have @ DFSKarma.com. And use promocode QUARTERBACK to receive an additional 20% off in any of our packages.
My chalk quarterback play that will get the 300 yard bonus is Patrick Mahomes (LOL). I feel like I am cheating so I will give you a second one on Andy Dalton. I am so high on the Red Rocket this week and it might come bite me in the behind but he looked really good under the new offense. I am excited to see him rip the ball over 50 times and having Ross and Boyd have a track meet on the SF defensive backs. He will be my main GPP QB. Another low owned candidate for the bonus is Phillip Rivers. Even without Mike W and Hunter Henry you know Phillip will let the ball fly.
As for running backs, I absolutely LOVE Alvin Kamara and I think he is a must in both cash and GPP’s. He is the good type of chalk. I will not be surprised if he gets the double 100 yard bonus. I have two super sneaky RB’s that can get the 100 yard bonus that are going to be 1% owned. One of them is Chris Thompson who will probably get the 100 yards receiving, and the other one is Sexy Rexy Burkhead. I am expecting CT to have to do everything for the offense when they are trailing by 30 and Burkhead to get all the work when winning by 40.
When it comes to Wide Receivers, it feels like Cooper Kupp is a pretty safe bet to get you the 100 yard bonus (avoiding the obvious Watkins call). But I actually prefer his teammate Brandin Cooks in GPP’s. While Kupp can get 100, Cooks could get 200. All IN on the Saints Rams game. If you want a crazy low owned play, look for Travis Benjamin at the almost minimum price. Rivers LOVES to throw the long ball and Benjamin is a threat to catch one or two of those long balls at any time.
Finishing up with Tight Ends, my favorite is 100% Evan Engram. I know most people are paying down at tight end but man Engram could break the slate. Please be overexposed to him. Another low owned buy that I love is George Kittle who should smash in this matchup. Lastly, as a super low owned pivot, look for Vance McDonald. Coming into the season everyone was in love with him and I am sure he will be under 5% after disappointing last week.
