What Is Jock MKT?
The simplest way to outline this is daily fantasy sports meets the stock market. You’ll purchase shares of players for varying amounts, depending on how much others are willing to pay for them during the IPO. Once the Live Trading starts, you can buy players that others want to sell or sell your players during the game. Once all of the games have ended, you will receive money based on how well your player performs compared to the field on the Jock MKT app for this week.

Top Player
AJ Brown
Projected Rank: 7th
Jock MKT Projection: 16.66 Fantasy Points
Targeting ceiling is a huge factor in these one or two game slates and we can do that tonight with AJ Brown. Brown is outside the top-five in the pre-ranking despite having the third or fourth-highest ceiling of all players on Monday. Brown’s ceiling was certainly on display against the Lions in Week 1 when he posted a receiving line of 10-155. It’s clear that he already has a strong rapport with his best friend Jalen Hurts. Brown actually led the NFL in Air Yards% after one game — amassing almost 73% of Hurts’ Air Yards. Along with those Air Yards was almost 45% of Hurts’ targets. Brown could feast on Patrick Peterson if they line him up across from him — and I think the Eagles offense could be in for a big night in their home opener. Brown is my favorite player to target on Monday night.
Value Player
Dawson Knox
Projected Rank: 17th
Jock MKT Projection: 9.19 Fantasy Points
This is a great buy-low spot on Knox, especially if Gabe Davis is ruled out. Davis was downgraded to questionable over the weekend with an ankle injury — and was even called “more doubtful” on Sunday. Davis clearly has taken over as a legitimate target in this offense, and his five Week 1 targets exiting the lineup could help Knox. Knox was a major let-down against the Rams, but he still ran 25 routes — the third-highest mark on the team. Buffalo has the highest team-total on the slate tonight at just over 28 points and it’s obvious they’re going to be in position to score points. He was top-ten in the NFL in targets inside the 20 yard-line last season — and he could be a big factor in the red-zone tonight.
