Green Bay Packers

Cash withthe Flash Best Bets had a strong Sunday and a tremendous close to a difficultweek by winning six of our eight NFL touts. Those road underdogs we talked about lastweekend reallycame through and Cash with the Flash Best Bets finished the week in the blackfor the seventh consecutive week in a row.

What makesthis extra special is how the competition fared on Sunday;

Winningmatters because you paid to be here with the purpose of becoming better atsports gambling. That’s why, for the most part, Cash with the Flash Best Bets takes the time to explain why we like or dislike aplay.

Cash with the Flash Best Bets tries to relay trends such as roadunderdogs winning NFL games. Last Sunday’s post wasn’t even about the NFL, butwe still felt that trend was important, and we squeezed it in there so maybeyou could benefit.

NFLunderdogs are 53-35-2 ATS this season. Road underdogs are 40-20-1 ATS anddivisional underdogs have a record of 17-10. These are important trends for NFLbettors moving forward and as luck would have it, we have an NFL road underdogtonight we like very much.

DetroitLions vs GreenBay Packers

Cash withthe Flash Best Bets: Detroit Lions -3.5 points

WhyDetroit?

There is alot to like about this game. Detroit is coming off a bye week and has an extraweek to prepare for Green Bay and to heal from the week in, week out grind ofthe National Football League. Green Bay opened as six-point favorites and that’sbeen bet down to where its currently at. The Lions are a divisional underdogand we’ve seen how successful those underdogs have been this season.

Green Bay willonce again be without the services of Davante Adams and will also miss tightend RobertTonyan. The Lions will miss defensive tackle Mike Daniels and returnwide receiver Danny Amendolaafter missing the Lions last game against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Matthew Stafford has thrown nine touchdown passes over his first four games with just two interceptions and I like the fact he has his full complement of receivers tonight. The Packers defense allows 238 passing yards per game and I think the Lions receivers will be able to give the stout Green Bay defense all they can handle on Monday night. Cash with the Flash Best Bets suggests taking the 3.5 points and playing the Lions to beat the Packers at Lambeau Field tonight.

The NHL hasa full slate of Columbus Day games and while we would love to analyze each gamefor you, most of the matchups are being played this afternoon and it just isn’tfeasible. Cash with the Flash Best Bets does like a couple of games on thesheet and here is what we have for you.

1:05 pmET: St Louis Blues -125 over the New York Islanders

3:05 pmET: Buffalo Sabres -110 over the Dallas Stars

5:05 pmET: Washington Capitals -125 over the Colorado Avalanche

This report will provide plays for the Week-Six NFL DFS Monday Night Football slate. I will break down the top fantasy players to consider.

Week Six MNF Podcast with Anthony D’Arcangelis and Dan Wehr

Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers

O/U: 45 (GB -3.5)

NFL DFS: Green Bay Packers

The Packers started out a bit stagnant on offense the first two weeks, but have found their groove, putting up 27 points or more over their last three games. Their offensive line hasn’t been doing enough for the RB’s, they are averaging just over 3.50 yards per carry. Despite this, they still hold the sixth best output in terms of FPTS per game (33) and will face a Lions defense who is giving up over 120 yards per game on the ground. They also allow opposing RB’s to average nearly 32 FPTS per game. Aaron Rodgers hasn’t exactly been outstanding, but I suppose he is to be considered. He is currently averaging just 16 FPTS per game, and in a game where the Packers should play from ahead, I can see Matthew Stafford serving as a better option at QB just due to the weapons around him and his overall consistency from a fantasy standpoint.

NFL DFS: Detroit Lions

On the Detroit side I am also a big fan of the running game. They average nearly four yards per carry and 120 yards per game on the ground. Green Bay is giving up a league worst 5.44 yards per carry. They are the worst in third and short situations, as well as goal line situations. Kerryon Johnson should have a very nice day on the ground. Detroit has a top offensive line against the pass rush, they have only allowed seven sacks but face a GB defensive line who ranks in the top ten in getting to the QB. My take is the Lions are able to stave off the Packers pass rush by establishing an effective run game. This, in turn, should create a good offensive balance and Stafford should have ample opportunity to throw the ball.

Week 5 DFS Tight End NFL — Cash Game Plays 

Zach Ertz, PHI vs. NYJ

FD ($6,600)        DK ($6,000

While the Eagles receiving corps is getting healthier, Ertz remains a much-utilized target within Philly’s offense. Through four games, he’s seen the most targets among TEs (38) and racked up 24-255-0, the glaring lack of a TD the only thing that ‘s keeping him from fantasy glory. Against the Jets in Week 5, he stands a good chance to remedy that. Zach Ertz is reasonably priced, the number one cash game play of the main slate and makes for a fine lock-and-load in all formats.

Evan Engram, NYG vs. MIN

FD ($6,300)        DK ($5,800

If Wertz is first, who do you think is second? Engram has only one fewer target (37) than Ertz and is averaging 6.75 receptions, 82.75 yards and a 0.5 TDs per game. If we round those numbers up to 7-83-1, we’re looking at a solid cash game play in a game that should feature a lot of the Giants TE. He comes at a small discount from Ertz, and even with WR Golden Tate back and slot man Sterling Shepard clicking with Rookie QB Daniel Jones, Engram projects to see around 8-10 targets on a weekly basis.

Week 5 DFS Tight End NFL — GPP Plays

Austin Hooper, ATL at HOU

FD ($6,700)        DK ($4,500) 

We’ve got some huge disparity with the pricing on Hoper, who’s themost expensive TE on FD at $6,700, and only the fifth priciest on DK. That’s somethingwe can take advantage of in GPPs on FD, where his ownership should be slightlylower. Hooper saw 11 targets in Week 4, the most among NFL tight ends, and bustedout for 9-130-0. The Texans have been stingy vs. TEs, but with this game projectedto be a boon for all the skill position players, I’ll be utilizing Hooper in game/teamstacks with Matt Ryan and Julio Jones, and running back some of the Texans (DeAndreHopkins, Will Fuller).

Darren Waller, OAK vs. CHI

FD ($6,400)        DK ($5,000) 

At this point, it’s safeto call Waller matchup-proof, and while his upside is somewhat limited againstthe Bears, I can’t keep him completely off my builds for Week 5 NFL DFS. He’stied with Engram for second most targets among TEs (37) and he’ll be utilizedoften as a check down with the Raiders likely struggling to move the ball verticallyup the field. Ownership on both sites will be low and there’s no reason we shouldn’tlook to Derek Carr’s most reliable pass catcher as a contrarian GPP option here.

Greg Olsen, CAR vs. JAC

FD ($5,700)        DK ($4,000) 

In Week 3, Kyle Allen looked absolutely smitten with hisveteran TE, but Olsen had a quiet week last Sunday when he hauled in just twoof his four targets for 5 yards. That performance was against the aforementionedTexans, and game log followers with recency bias may steer clear of Olsen thisweek. That’s fine – because when healthy, we need reliable red zone targets withupside like Olsen in our GPPs. The Jaguars aren’t the big bad scary predatorycats they were in 2018, so plug in the Panthers TE with confidence.

Ben Watson, NE at WAS

FD ($5,200)        DK ($3,700) 

Doyou like risk? How about when it comes with oodles of upside in a matchup thatportends many scoring opportunities for a potent offense? Tom Brady has been desperatelylooking for a TE to lock onto since Rob Gronkowski retired, and Watson – in his15th NFL season and his second turn with the Patriots – is comingoff a four-game suspension that’s kept him off the field thus far. In his triumphantreturn to New England, we could see a few extra targets go his way. I won’t havetons of exposure to Watson, who’s probably going to be limited to red zonechances and about half of the Pats’ total offensive snaps, but he’s anoff-the-wall play for GPPs.

Week 5 DFS Tight End NFL — Value and Punt Plays 

Tyler Eifert, CIN vs. ARI

FD (4,600)        DK ($3,300) 

Eifertis crazy cheap on both sites and gets a gigantic boost against the Cardinals,who yield 163.7% of the average fantasy points to TEs. He’s been quiet thisseason and he might get chalky, but the Bengals offense is missing some oftheir WRs and Eifert is an attractive value play in Week 5.

Jared Cook, NO vs. TB

FD($4,500)         DK ($3,400) 

Game manager Teddy Bridgewater doesn’t necessarily get the bloodpumping and inspire confidence in the New Orleans offense, but the QB should belooking more to Jared Cook in Week 5 against the Bucs, who provide a favorablematchup for the athletic Cook. His 18 targets through four games is arelatively low number, but this is a good game for him to spike a Top 10 TEfinish and find some good, old-fashioned NFL paydirt.

Additional GPP options:

O.J. Howard, TB at NO (FD $5,800, DK $3,900)

Jimmy Graham, GB at DAL (FD $5,700, DK $4,300)

Dawson Knox, BUF at TEN (FD$4,800, DK $3,100)

Trey Burton, CHI at OAK (FD $4,800, DK $3,300)

Week 5 DFS DST NFL — Cash Game Plays 

Chicago Bears (CHI at OAK)

FD ($5,000)        DK ($3,800) 

The Bears are slightly cheaper than the Pats on both sites and rank as my top cash game DST for Week 5. They’re just as likely as New England to notch multiple sacks and grab a few turnovers, and they probably have a little more upside based on some of their standouts defensive talents like sack specialist Khalil Mack, DB Kyle Fuller (23 solos, two INTs) and linebacker Roquan Smith, who’s back with the team after missing Week 4 for personal reasons. I’m buying in both cash and GPP contests.

New England Patriots (NE at WAS)

FD ($5,500)        DK ($4,300) 

The Redskins are having some difficulty settling on a QB for Week5, and the Pats defensive players must be licking their collective chops at theprospect of haranguing either journeyman Case Keenum, Colty McCoy (who’s yet tosee the field for Washington this season), or rookie Dwayne Haskins, who was9-for-17 in Week 4 with three INTs. New England comes in as my second-best cashgame play, but they’re usable in all formats.

Week 5 DFS DST NFL — GPP Plays

Minnesota Vikings (MIN at NYG)

FD ($4,500)        DK ($3,200) 

The Giants aren’t quite as terrible as they were during the firstcouple of weeks, but they’re prone to turnovers and providing scoring opportunitiesfor opposing defenses with a substandard offensive line and a rookie QB. TheVikings are affordable on both sites and could get lost in the shuffle ofviable DST options.

Philadelphia Eagles (PHI vs. NYJ)

FD ($4,900)        DK ($3,700) 

We’ll be seeing a lot of green-on-green violence in this Sunday tilt, and there’s as much upside to this Philly unit (which has yet to break out with a double-digit performance) as any other DST on the slate.

Tennessee Titans (TEN vs. BUF)

FD ($4,800)        DK ($3,000) 

I’m not trying to pick on the New York teams this week, even if it feels like it, but the Bills could be the third squad form the Empire State who’s not entering Week 5 with the same starting QB they rolled out in Week 1. The Bills are not a bad team, but the Titans have been watching the tape on Matt Barkley and planning accordingly.

Week 5 DFS DST NFL — Punt Plays 

Green Bay Packers (GB at DAL)

FD ($3,700)        DK ($2,400) 

The Packers are another team that’s super risky heading into Week5 but make sense an off-the-board GPP play in Dallas. I’m a Cowboys fan and I knowthat the offensive lien issues they’re having are much more of a problem than anyonewants to let on. Pairing them with Aaron Jones and fading Ezekiel Elliott on afew lineups could allow you to find some leverage and load up withTexans-Falcons, my favorite game stack on the slate.

Cincinnati Bengals (CIN vs. ARI)

FD($3,400)         DK ($2,500) 

The Bengals are once again viable in GPPs (they’re at home and facing a rookie QB) but they’re not going to make any of my cash game builds. Use them as a contrarian GPP defense with plenty of upside and just as much risk.

VIDEO: DraftKings Showdown Preview and Picks

I want to start off the NFL DFS article by saying you must have the absolute nuts to win the Million up top on both sites tonight. There is no room for mistakes with so many entires in these contests, if you think you are going to win a million dollars by playing a combo of the top eight guys in the player pool, you are not. If a combo of a bunch of guys you have heard of before is indeed the best scoring lineup, you will tie for first with 5,000 of your closest friends. If that sounds good to you, then go for it. It will be profitable if you nail it, but for me I am going for the whole enchilada. I will be making multiple teams and taking long shots on a few cheap guys. 

As far as MVP goes, I tend to want to get someone in the midrange for a few reasons. Lower ownership and someone besides the top studs are going to have to produce. I have played a lot of these NFL DFS contests (Including the Showdown Slate Championship on DraftKings last year) and I can tell you they are very difficult to predict. 

Leaving cash on the table in these NFL DFS contests is fine too. This makes your lineup even more unique and lower owned because a lot of amateurs will be pulling their hair out to use their entire salary. 

That all being said, I have looked at every possible player that can get on the field and listed my expansive NFL DFS player pool below. Here are my quick thoughts on each player.

Aaron Rodgers: Obviously a fantastic QB who will have the ball in his hands the entire game. Goes against a great Bears D, but that didn’t stop him last year when he threw for 286 yards and three touchdowns against them in the season opener.

Davante Adams;: Rodgers’ WR1, target monster, elite.

Mitch Trubisky: Mediocre quarterback in comparison to Rodgers, not afraid to throw it 40 times a game. All it takes is a few good catches for touchdowns on these NFL DFS slates. 

Aaron Jones: Green Bay RB1, will get rushing attempts in the teens and a few targets. Facing stout Bears rush D

Allen Robinson: Bears WR1, guaranteed targets against bad Green Bay defense 

David Montgomery: Rookie RB, has impressed during camp, hearing he may be splitting work with Mike Davis. Keep an eye on the news.

Tarik Cohen: Will be change of pace back and get most of, if not all, of the air targets at RB, NFL DFS boom or bust

Marquez Valdes-Scantling: Green Bay WR2A, has looked fantastic and earned Rodgers’ trust, worked out with Randy Moss all offseason. Love him.

Geronimo Allison: Green Bay WR2B, will be on the field with Rodgers all game, get some shares.

Mason Crosby: He’s the Green Bay kicker and a reliable one. If Green Bay can’t convert touchdowns against the stingy Bears D, in comes Crosby. 

Trey Burton (Groin): I don’t think he plays, and if he does he shouldn’t be effective enough with a lingering groin injury. I am sure the Bears want to get this guy healthy and losing him in Week one isn’t in their long term plan. 

Anthony Miller: Bears WR2, it’s not like being Green Bay’s WR2, but he will still be on the field all games vs Green Bay’s sub-par pass defense. He is capable of a big game and should see a small uptick in targets if Burton misses. 

Eddy Pineiro: Bears kicker, but they arn’t impressed. He is probably going to be kicking for his job tonight.

Jimmy Graham: He is cleared to play (finger injury). Red zone target more than anything else. If he catches a TD, he pays off, but he is the Packers’ fourth best option in the passing game.

Jamaal Williams: RB nursing a hamstring isn’t good, but he says he is fine and is going to play. He will get on the field some. More of a passing threat out of the backfield than anything. Aaron Jones is the Redzone guy so I wouldn’t expect him to vulture any TDs

Taylor Gabriel: Big Play WR threat for the Bears, cheap NFL DFS price, pretty much what you look for on these slates

Mike Davis: Came over from Seattle with intention to play more but the Bears drafted Montgomery. I am hearing Davis may be splitting carries with Montgomery. Keep an eye on the news dropping closer to game time. If he is going to get a handful of carries he is a fantastic NFL DFS play at the price.

Cordarrelle Patterson: Another big play receiver on the Bears. Patterson just needs a little room and he is in the endzone. He shouldn’t get the lion’s share of the targets by any means but he will get something. He is also a guy you design plays for out of the backfield

Adam Shaheen: He is your top Bears TE if Burton misses. Will get a few targets

Jake Kumerow: Fan favorite Packers receiver from the University of Wisconsin. With St. Brown on the IR, it opens up time for Kumerow

Riley Ridley: Rookie Bears WR, stud in college, hard to know what to expect but should get on the field. Had a solid camp and preseason.

Kerrith Whyte: 7thround RB draft pick for Bears, might not see field. Pass.

Ben Braunecker: TE2 if Burton misses, he has only been targeted 13 times in his three years in the NFL.

OUT DONT PLAY Wims: Bears wide receiver but not a priority to get the ball to, he is listed behind Anthony Miller. Sub 1% absolute dart that could give you zero very easily

Robert Tonyan: Packers TE2. He had six targets last year and only one touchdown.

Trevor Davis: Green Bay WR4. Had a nice preseason outing grabbing six targets for 78 yards and a touchdown, however, he won’t see the field much, if any

Marcedes Lewis: Green Bay TE3, played four games last year. Was targeted four times. 

CUT. DON’T PLAY Allen Lazard:

Dexter Williams: Packers RB3. Only a madman would play him. 

The NFL DFS Picks

MVP: Davante Adams ($14,500 FD), Marquez Valdes-Scantling ($10,000 FD) One of them is getting in the end zone or they Packers don’t have a chance to win this game. If the Packers are losing late, you can expect Rodgers to take over and pepper the hell to both of the guys as they march down the field. Adams will have the larger role but is more expensive. If you can fit Adams, he is the safest. Use MVS if you need salary. 

NFL DFS Safe Flex Options: (listed in order of preference)

  1. Aaron Rodgers ($15,000 FD): I really don’t see a path where he isn’t on the winning team. If the Packers are getting blown out he will pass the ball 40 times, if they are winning it because Rodgers got them to the endzone. Gotta do your best to get him in
  2. Mitchell Tribusky ($13,500 FD): Green Bay pass D is not good. Trubisky has capable receivers in Miller, Robinson, Gabriel and Cohen.
  3. Aaron Jones ($13,000 FD): Will get the majority of the Packers rushing opportunities, I just have a feeling he is going to struggle vs this defense. If he gets in the box, he should be fine. Getting in the box isn’t going to be easy though.
  4. Allen Robinson ($12,500 FD): Bears WR1 vs Green Bay D
  5. David Montgomery ($12,500 FD): Bears are high on him, Packers rush D is suspect. Should get redzone work and will be the primary back. I can see a lot of running the ball here to try and keep Rodgers off the field. My only hesitation is I am hearing some rumblings or Mike Davis getting significant work here.
  6. Tarik Cohen ($12,000 FD): Boom or Bust candidate out of the backfield. Will get a handful of carries and be targeted almost as much as the Bears top receivers.
  7. Geronimo Allison ($9,500 FD): Will have just as much opportunity a MVS and is slightly cheaper
  8. Anthony Miller ($9,000 FD): Starting WR for Bears vs bad Green Bay D

NFL DFS Milli Maker Plays (listed in order of preference)

  1. Taylor Gabriel ($8,000 FD): Starting WR with speed. Not typically targeted as heavily but if he gets in open space he gets in the endzone
  2. Eddie Pinerio ($8,500 FD): Game script play, I think the Bears win here, which means Pinerio is going to need to make a few kicks. He went 8-9 in the preseason
  3. Cordarrelle Patterson ($6,000 FD): Hoping for a few designed plays for him to get in open space
  4. Mason Crosby ($9,500 FD)

VERY HIGH RISK

  1. Mike Davis ($7,500 FD): Give me 35 yards and vulture a TD
  2. Adam Shaheen ($5,000 FD): Possible starting TE for Bears, watch for Burton news
  3. Jake Kumerow ($5,000 FD): Fan favorite, will need to convert one of his very few targets, if any, into a big play
  4. Riley Ridley ($5,000 FD): He is good. Will they play him? I hope so. I will throw a dart

NYG @ CIN

Giants

Giants’ coach Pat Shurmur has been vocal on not playing his starters in the preseason. Eli Manning has played just two series in two games thus far. It looks to be the Daniel Jones show again in Week 3. All signs indicate Jones should see a ton of playing time after an overall impressive performance throughout the preseason. Do not expect Jones to be necessarily chucking the ball up and down the field, but rather the Giants putting him in a position to succeed. Using short routes to the backs and tight ends. T.J. Jones has led the receiver group in targets (10), touchdowns (2), and ranks second in the NFL through the preseason in yards/route run (3.47) on a minimum of 10 targets. Jon Hilliman is interesting at running back after receiving 16 rushing attempts in Week 2, which was second-most in the NFL last week.

Bengals

The Bengals defense has allowed 469 passing yards over the past two weeks with a 105.4 passer rating. Expect to see a ton of running back work from Rodney Anderson. Trayveon Williams has been lost to injury, and because of that Anderson expects to finally be unleashed against the Giants. The Giants have allowed 103 rushing yards over the past two weeks. Receiver John Ross is unlikely to play, while Ryan Finley is strongly making his case to be Andy Dalton’s backup. His three passing touchdowns are tied for the most in the preseason, and in passing yards, he ranks eighth. Damion Willis leads the team in receiving yards (63) and routes run (51) over the preseason.

BAL @ PHI

Ravens

Apparently, the Ravens’ offense has been tearing up the Eagles’ defense during the joint practices.

https://twitter.com/jamisonhensley/status/1163912432819015680

Usually, you want to be hesitant to play starters in the preseason game, but using Ravens is the sharp play because the Ravens value winning even in the preseason. They have won 15 straight preseason games. Lamar Jackson and Miles Boykin create a great stack in DFS NFL Preseason. Boykin has 12 targets in the preseason which is twice as much as any other receiver on the Ravens. This game could show us the most we see of the new-look Ravens offense prior to the regular season.

Eagles

There will no be Carson Wentz on Thursday night. With so many injuries at the tight end position, Joshua Perkins needs to be on the radar for preseason DFS. Though he only received two targets last week, he tied the most routes run (19) on the team in Week 2 of the preseason. Josh McCown has looked sharp in the few days since being added to the roster so don’t be surprised to see him get playing time in this NFL preseason game. J.J. Arcega-Whiteside has seen 10 targets throughout the preseason, so he is a receiver to continue to look to in your preseason DFS lineups.

WAS @ ATL

Redskins

Receivers Trey Quinn and Paul Richardson are both out for Thursday along with tight end Jordan Reed. Great chance that running back Derrius Guice plays on Thursday. Along with that coach Jay Gruden has ultimately stated that he is not in a rush to name a starting quarterback. Receiver Darvin Kidsy should continue to see work as he has seen more than twice as many targets (9) than any other receiver.

Falcons

Dan Quinn has ruled out the following guys: Damontae Kazee, Russell Gage, Kaleb McGary, Foye Oluokun and Kendall Sheffield. Tight end Jaeden Graham has been making some noise. Graham led the Falcons in receiving yards against the Jets with four catches for 55 yards. His eight receptions rank second-most on the team behind only receiver Christian Blake during the preseason.

CAR @ NE

Panthers

Starters are in! Cam Newton and the entire starting lineup is set to play against New England. Head coach wants to play his starters via Panthers.com “I like it just because it’s a measuring stick. Coach (Bill) Belichick, the way his teams play and prepare, they are going to test you,” Rivera said. “It’s an opportunity to truly gauge where we are and what we need to be better at.” Areas of note that Rivera highlighted: The fourth, fifth and sixth wide receiver. “What’s the combination of guys we’re going to go into games with?” Rivera said. And the rookie running backs. “We’ve really got to see Jordan Scarlett and Elijah Holyfield a lot. We have to see what those guys are made of and if they have the ability to help us.”

https://twitter.com/DNewtonespn/status/1163856798757134339

Patriots

It has not yet been confirmed whether or not Tom Brady will play in the NFL Preseason game in Week 3. However, if history is any indicator Brady will play. For more than a decade, the quarterback has played in the preseason dress rehearsal. At wide receiver Josh Gordon, Julian Edelman, and Demaryius Thomas are unlikely to play. Question marks also surround N’Keal Harry, Maurice Harris, and Phillip Dorsett, who are dealing with injuries that sidelined them for last Saturday’s matchup with the Tennessee Titans. So again firing up preseason standout Jakobi Meyers continues to be a strong buy along with Braxton Berrios. At the tight end, there won’t be Matt LaCosse or Stephen Anderson, so snaps will be divided among Ryan Izzo, Lance Kendricks, and Eric Saubert. Ben Watson is most likely to get the start on Thursday night with his 4-week suspension looming.

Packers

Oh, Canada! The Green Bay starters are projected to play in the first quarter according to Matt LeFleur. Still, the playing time is a question mark making them difficult to trust in this NFL Preseason matchup. The team will more than likely lean on caution in terms of starters playing long into Thursday night. Depth wide receiver Allen Lazard leads the team in targets (7) and yards per route run (4.29) on the Packers through the first two weeks. This is Aaron Rodgers on Lazard: “I think he’s had a really nice camp. He’s made a bunch of plays,” Rodgers said on Monday. “He’s always showing up on special teams, he does things the right way in practice. I think he’s put himself in a position to legitimately be playing for all 32 teams.”

Aaron Jones should also play, but I would expect a healthy dose of Dexter Williams again with Jamaal Williams just recently returning from his own hamstring injury.

Raiders

The preseason hasn’t been overly kind to the Packers defense as they have given up 26 points in each of their first two NFL Preseason contests. So this could potentially bode well for the Raiders, who could use a nice showing Thursday night amid the Antonio Brown saga. Throughout the preseason and training camps, the two biggest names have consistently been Keelan Doss and Darren Waller. Doss has led the team in receptions and targets, while Waller made his preseason debut in last week’s preseason game. Additionally, at running back DeAndre Washington has flashed with work in the preseason as he continues to fight for a roster spot. His upside in the passing game makes him a very intriguing preseason DFS play.

JAX @ MIA

Jaguars

For the Jaguars Marqise Lee, Alfred Blue, Geoff Swaim, Josh Oliver, and Charles Jones will not play. Nick Foles will play, but for how long is up in the air. Tre McBride continues to be a receiver to target throughout preseason DFS. He leads the team in targets, receptions, and receiving yards in the first two weeks of the preseason. Leonard Fournette may also see limited action so the work could be loaded onto Devante Mays, who has led the team in rushing attempts through the first two weeks.

Dolphins

Ryan Fitzpatrick looks to get the start with the head coach claiming Josh Rosen is just not ready. Brian Flores has said that this does not mean that Fitzpatrick is the entrenched starter for Week 1. He is going to see more action in this game than in the first two preseason games. Flores wants to see how Fitzpatrick works with the first-team offense during the third preseason game. Should Fitzpatrick play well, that would essentially lock him in to start Week 1 against the Ravens.

Fitzpatrick will be without DeVante Parker, Albert Wilson, and Kenyan Drake. The weapons that Fitzpatrick might end up working with include Preston Williams, Patrick Laird, and Kenny Stills.
