POSITIONAL RANKINGS
QUARTERBACK
- McKenzie Milton – UCF ($10.4k)
- Trace McSorley – Penn State ($9.2k)
- Taylor Cornelius – OK St ($8.3k)
VALUE:
- Skylar Thompson – KSU ($5.6k)
- Charlie Brewer – Baylor ($6.5k)
SNEAKY:
- Justin Herbert ($8.1k)
RUNNING BACK
- Darrell Henderson – Memphis ($9.5k) … Lock him in
- Justice Hill – OK State ($6.9k) … Price is too cheap to completely ignore today, but he has burned me hard this year
- Myles Gaskin – Washington ($7.2k)
- Adrian Killins Jr – UCF ($6.8k) … Mostly in play only if going full game stack IMO.
- Keaontay Ingram – TA&M ($5.5k) … Mid range value option
VALUE:
- Tony Pollard – Memphis ($3.3k)
- JaMychal Hasty – Baylor ($4.5k)
WIDE RECEIVER
This doesn’t leap off as a huge pay up at WR slate this week and it’s mostly due to the guys who are not on the main slate (like the WVU guys who ARE on FanDuel but I don’t love there today)
The three guys I have highlighted in BOLD are likely all going to be fairly popular today. I would expect 2 of the 3 to be top plays today.
- Dredrick Snelson – UCF ($6.2k)
- Jalen Hurd – Baylor ($6.5k)
- Lil’Jordan Humphrey – Texas ($6.7k)
- Isiah Zuber – Kansas State ($6.3k) … If K State pulls off an upset he has to be involved. Good pivot off Humphrey chalk.
- Tre Nixon – UCF ($5.7k)
- Dillon Mitchell – Oregon ($6.1k)
- Aaron Fuller – Washington ($6.9k)
VALUE:
- Chris Platt – Baylor ($3.9k)
- Pat Freiermuth – PSU ($3.2k) … Sneaky bounce back spot for Penn State in a rout IMO.
STACKS
UCF vs MEMPHIS … Milton and Henderson are about as must plays as you get. If you are fading them it’s a good leverage play in tournaments this week but don’t expect these guys to not put up huge numbers.
- McKenzie Milton – QB (UCF)
- Darrell Henderson – RB (Memphis)
- Dredrick Snelson – WR (UCF)
- Tre Nixon – WR (UCF)
- Tony Pollard – RB (Memphis)
WASHINGTON vs OREGON … Sneaky play of the day. Washington has a good defense and usually slows the games down, but Justin Herbert is gaining a ton of steam as the no doubt #1 pick in the NFL draft next year and this is a prime spot for him to shine and prove it in a tough conference matchup.
- Justin Herbert – QB (Oregon)
- Myles Gaskin – RB (Washington)
- Dillon Mitchell – WR (Oregon)
- Aaron Fuller – WR (Washington)
- Jake Browning – QB (Washington)
