The Cheap Seats: NFL DFS Week 1

I’m adding little something besides My Top DFS golf plays this fall.

Welcome to The Cheap Seats!

I’m going to provide three under the radar cheap players who could make or break your weekend in NFL DFS.

Most weeks I will have a running back, a wide receiver and a tight end as those plays. But it could vary if a quarterback or DST may just jump off my NFL spreadsheet.

Onto this week’s The Cheap Seats plays!

Running back

Javonte Williams, Denver ($5,500)

Williams will probably share the backfield most of the season with Jaleel McLaughlin.

Williams is two years removed from his ACL injury. This should allow him to get back closer to his rookie season form.

The Broncos will face a Seattle run defense that allowed 138.4 yards last year, ranking 31st.

Williams should also be an overlook item. According to our projection portal, we expect his roster numbers to be in the sub-5 percent range.

Based on Williams’ salary this week, he reached 3X value in two of last three road games last season.

Plus, Williams is a nice pivot off of lineups using the semi-chalky Seattle’s Kenneth Walker III ($6,100).

Wide Receiver

Dyami Brown, Washington ($3,000)

A lot of fantasy football pundits believe Luke McCaffrey was the reason why the Commanders traded Jahan Dotson.

They are wrong because Dyami was the reason.

In two preseason games with rookie QB Jayden Daniels, Brown caught 5 balls for 74 yards, including a couple highlight-film contested catches. And he held out of the final preseason tune-up.

Brown is the same price as the chalky Cincinnati’s Andrei Iosivas

Tight End

Hunter Henry, New England ($4,200)

I know Henry is not the cheapest of tight ends, but I do believe he will be overlooked this week.

The Bengals were downright awful vs. tight ends in 2023 and are not expected to be any better.

Cincinnati gave up 107 receptions for 1,080 yards and six TDs to tight ends last season.

Henry’s rostered numbers appear to be in the sub-5 percent range.
