What is going on Karma Nation! Most of you might know me as the ‘soccer guy’ but I am actually play pretty high volume when it comes to MLB and NFL. I focus a lot on cash games but I love the smaller sites. Last year I was in the NFL Championship on FantasyDraft and was just a few points away from a HUGE payday (Thank you for the 0 Blake Jarwin).
Every week I will be writing my favorite Yahoo! Cash plays for the week. I will provide a top cash play, a secondary cash play, and a GPP pivot. The format will be very similar to how I write the soccer Hat-Trick. I will try to not cite any stats, but if you want to know where I get my stats from check our proprietary NFL Data Dashboard @ DFSKarma.com.

Quarterback
Top Cash Play: Super easy breasy at QB this week. Play Russell Wilson. If Kyle Allen destroyed the Cardinals, Wilson is about to do some NSFW things to the Cardinals. Definitely overexposed to him this week.
Secondary Cash: I am going to continue with #MahomesInCash brand. He is just hands and shoulder better than everyone else. He is playing in a dome against Detroit… game freaking over. I would not be surprised if he breaks all kinds of records this weekend.
Top GPP Play: Since I already wrote my favorite QB play in my Bonus Bonanza, my 2nd fave in GPP’s is Jared Goff aka little Big Ben. His home/road splits are as ugly as Big Ben’s. He gets a cupcake matchup against the Buccaneers and Kupp is looking like a HoF wide receiver. Additional bonus, I have tickets to the game (still debating if I am going though).
Running Back
Top Cash Play: Super easy again, CMC will be the most popular cash game play and for a good reason. Even if it is only .5PPR I don’t care. He is going to crush. He continues to see basically every single RB snap and continues with the massive usage. Safest play of the week.
Secondary Cash: Again, another easy plug and play is Austin Ekeler. He is basically the only RB left on the team and this is the last week we can expect a huge workload from him with Gordon coming back next week.
Top GPP play: Remember when people were scared to play Alvin Kamara? LOL. He is the perfect late night hammer to your GPP lineups. The Cowboys have looked pretty good but they have played the Eli Manning Little Giants, the Deadskins, and the WOATphins.
Wide Receiver
Top Cash Play: KEEEEENAAAAAN AAAALLEEEEEENNNN!!! You guys have no idea how happy I get to see Allen CRUSH. People called him injury prone but his injuries were massive flukes. Allen will continue to crush and even more now with Mike Williams out. Keep playing him.
Secondary Cash: Cooper Kupp has come back from injury even better than before. He probably rehab his knee in Germany. He is mispriced at only $22 IMO. Love him at a discounted ownership.
Top GPP play: Remember when DK Metcalf was supposed to be a bust? lol. He is just so massive and he is playing the puny cardinals defense. He will have couple of “go get them” catches and he has a good chance at getting a bunch of those.
Tight End
Top Cash Play: One day I will tired of writing Evan Engram as a cash play, but this is not the week. He will continue to have even more massive target share with Barkley out. Love the ownership leverage than the chalk play.
Secondary Cash: The super chalk play at Tight End is going to be Will Dissley. The Cardinals continue to get CRUSHED by tight ends and Dissly should be no exception. I prefer paying little more for Engram and have the ownership leverage.
Top GPP Play: Travis Kelce continues to go underowned while having the highest ceiling of any Tight end in the league.
For defense I am probably going to end up paying for the Chargers. I love the TD upside that they could have against the Dolphins.
