A steady improvement with The Cheap Seats!
But still nothing to write home about of a really big week.
Spencer Rattler gave us solid numbers as a $4,000 min-priced quarterback. He finished with 14.32 DraftKings points.
Jalen Tolbert and Cade Otton finished with numbers that wouldn’t hurt us in a cash build, but they were not the pieces needed to win a GPP.
But my spreadsheet is getting better of identifying those low-end pieces.

Onto this week’s The Cheap Seats!
Running Back
Trey Sermon, Indianapolis ($5,500)
I know Sermon disappointed a lot of DFS players last week, but I’m expecting a bounce-back game.
During his first week as the starter for injured Johnathan Taylor, Sermon scored 18.3 DK points in Week 5.
But Week 6, he was a dud, finishing with only 2.9 points.
This week, however, Sermon should get the bulk of the carries vs. Miami’s 26th-ranked defense vs. RB points on DK.
Wide Receiver
Juju Smith-Schuster, Kansas City ($4,000)
This one may come back to bite me in the butt.
Smith-Schuster missed practice on Thursday because of hamstring spasms.
He did return to practice on Friday, and Kansas City coach Andy Reid said he’s in line to play.
Smith-Schuster does have upside at his price after playing 67 percent of the snaps and adding 7 catches for 130 yards in their Week 5 win vs. New Orleans.
Tight End
Grant Calcaterra, Philadelphia ($3,200)
Calcaterra has played well when given the opportunity this season.
He filled in well last week after Dallas Goedert left the game with an injury.
This week Calcaterra has a chance to shine as the starter.
Goedert had played 82 percent of the snaps in the Eagles’ first 3 games until his injury, and Calcaterra steps into this bigger opportunity.
Calcaterra caught all 4 of his targets for 67 after Goedert’s departure.
