To quote the great Michael Rasile, “It’s a great day to be alive.” NFL DFS GPP season is here and it’s time for us to stay hot. We’ve absolutely smashed Weeks One, Two, and Three… and will continue to do so this week! For those who haven’t read it yet, please check out the Week 4 Cash Game Checkdown for your bankroll sustaining, cash game build advice.
In addition, I would strongly advise reading my NFL DFS Strategy article I published this offseason, before diving into the 2020 NFL DFS season. If you have any questions or would like some further help when building your lineups, please do not hesitate to reach out to me directly on Twitter.
For those looking to get different and make a splash in some GPPs, the time is now. We’ll usually be taking some heavy stances on lower-ownership players, but at times, there is certainly good “chalk” to eat. Let’s get into it.
Please note, everyone on our cheatsheet and the Cash Game Checkdown are also in play for GPPs. This is more to uncover some players people are not talking about… and they should be.
*This week, due to crazy amounts of work and late week cancellations/injuries, I’m just going to list out the players I have interest in. Be sure to tune in to the Sunday NFL Livestream tomorrow morning at 11AM EST for further explanations*
NFL DFS GPP Quarterbacks
- DeShaun Watson – Great for cash, great for GPPs. He’s going to be popular, but we’ve been picking on this Minnesota defense all season long. No need to stop now.
- Josh Allen – not much to say, he’s been going nuts and this Las Vegas defense does not scare me away from Allen at all. I do question Vegas’ ability to keep this one close, but Allen is always in play.
- Matthew Stafford – there’s simply no one healthy in this New Orleans’ secondary. Lattimore and Jenkins are both out and somehow that leads to PJ Williams being their top corner. Yikes.
- Kyler Murray – Everyone wanted to jam him in last week but now no one is playing him against 28th ranked defense in pass defense DVOA?
- Joe Burrow – Zac Taylor’s offense throws the ball over 45 times a game… Jacksonville is ranked dead last in pass defense DVOA. All of the Bengals pass-catchers are healthy. Let’s go Joe for NFL DFS GPP lineups.
Honorable Mention: Russell Wilson, Kirk Cousins
Running Backs
- Alvin Kamara – don’t care about his ownership. The dude is the only offensive weapon on this New Orleans’ offense posting a 7.5 reception prop… That’s wonderful. It’s hard to fade this guy in any lineup.
- Dalvin Cook – On the other side of Houston stacks, it makes a lot of sense to roster the lead back in one of the most potent running schemes in the NFL.
- Nick Chubb – Not sure this game actually shoots out at all. Chubb is always in my player pool… even more so if Hunt misses this game.
- Josh Jacobs – The Raiders don’t have many other weapons healthy in this offense right now. Jacobs’ workload is likely to be second to nobody against the Bills’ defense that ranks 26th in run defense DVOA.
- Jonathan Taylor – I mention it every week, you can run all over Chicago. Taylor’s price is in an awkward spot with Henderson and Drake below him, but I’ll have a lineup or two with Taylor.
- Darrell Henderson Jr. – 13-point home favorite. The Giants have actually been rather stout against the run, but with no Akers, I’ll trust the talent and the Vegas numbers.
- Kenyan Drake – he’s a running back going up against the Panthers… don’t get too cute and forget about him.
Honorable Mention: Joe Mixon, David Montgomery, Devin Singletary
Wide Receivers
- DeAndre Hopkins – Ownership projections for ~5%? I know he’s questionable, but if he’s a go tomorrow, you’ll need some Hopkins.
- DK Metcalf / Tyler Lockett – they’re the top WRs on this slate in a cake matchup.
- Mike Evans – Always interested in a sub-10% owned Mike Evans. Chris Godwin is out, so Evans should be heavily relied on.
- Kenny Golladay – see Stafford writeup.
- Jarvis Landry
- CeeDee Lamb
- Will Fuller / Brandin Cooks / Randall Cobb – see writeup on Watson.
- Tyler Boyd / AJ Green
- Justin Jefferson
- Hunter Renfrow
NFL DFS GPP Tight Ends
- Mark Andrews
- Mike Gesicki
- Logan Thomas
- Evan Engram
