DFS Values for Wild Card Weekend
It’s a four-game slate with Wild Card Weekend and if you try and get the top plays in the lineup such as Ezekiel Elliott, DeAndre Hopkins, Andrew Luck and Deshaun Watson, there needs to be a few cheap plays. Here are a few values and some low-owned players to consider in DFS lineups this weekend.
QB Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys
- FanDuel: $7600
- DraftKings: $5500
Andrew Luck and Deshaun Watson will be the popular targets and Lamar Jackson will draw some ownership. A pivot off them is Prescott. Prescott has played nine games with Amari Cooper and has thrown 14 touchdowns and thrown four interceptions. Prescott also has the ability to add rushing yards and score on the ground. He has six rushing touchdowns, although the Seahawks haven’t allowed a quarterback to rush for a score.
RB Tarik Cohen, Chicago Bears
- FanDuel: $7,000
- DraftKings: $5,400
Cohen is more appealing on DraftKings since it’s one-point per reception. Cohen didn’t get many touches the last two games with the Bears in control of the game. Cohen had six games of at least six receptions this season and has a high ceiling that could win a tournament. The Eagles have struggled against pass-catching running backs and allowed them to catch 6.9 passes per game.
WR Dontrelle Inman, Indianapolis Colts
- FanDuel: $5,500
- DraftKings: $4,300
Inman has scored in two consecutive games and has 11 targets. He had four catches with 46 yards with a touchdown on five targets in Week 16 against the Giants and five catches for 77 yards with a touchdown last week against the Titans. The Texans have been getting carved up by the pass the last few weeks and have allowed the eighth-most Fantasy points to the position. The Texans allowed the Colts wide receivers 318 yards in Week 14. This is a game where the Colts are going to pass a lot since the Texans defend the run well. Andrew Luck attempted 61 and 42 passes in the regular season against Houston.
WR Michael Gallup, Dallas Cowboys
- FanDuel: $5,700
- DraftKings: $3,600
Gallup is capable of breaking a long play and scoring a touchdown. Dak Prescott has missed Gallup several times when he was wide open. Gallup had three catches for 53 yards with a touchdown in Week 16 and had three catches for 50 yards on six targets last week. Gallup has a low floor, but he does have a high ceiling if he can find the end zone. Gallup has 46 targets in nine games with Amari Cooper, who draws most of the attention.
WR Nelson Agholor, Philadelphia Eagles
- FanDuel: $6,400
- DraftKings: $3,800
Nick Foles seems to have an affinity for targeting Agholor. Over the last two games, Agholor has 13 targets. He took advantage of a good matchup in Week 16 against the Texans with five catches for 116 yards with a touchdown and last week he had five catches for 40 yards with two touchdowns against the Redskins.
