Week 5 On the Mark - Preview

After a very successful 2-1 “Mark” in Week 3 (+2.53 units), we have our sights locked on several players ready to outperform their projections before the calendar flips to October. WR Michael Pittman over 5 1/2 receptions +110 Colts Adonai Mitchell could see a decreased role from a pivotal Week 4 miscue and with fellow WR Alec Pierce out with a concussion, Pittman should be featured versus the Raiders. Full-time fantasy advanced metrics project Pittman for 6+ receptions. Through four games Pittman is averaging 5.25 receptions per game and should see additional opportunities in Week 5 due to WR depth issues.

Week 5 DraftKings DFS Advice - Preview

The Week 5 main slate is trimmed to 10 games with byes and the London matchup, which means ownership will be more concentrated. When the field condenses on certain players (like De’Von Achane or Justin Herbert stacks), finding the right balance of chalk, leverage, and correlation becomes critical.

Quarterbacks Preview
Justin Fields ($5,600) – Clear QB1 in Sims (appeared in 68 top builds). His rushing ceiling + condensed pass-catchers (Wilson, Kmet) make him the highest floor/ceiling combo.

Running Backs Preview
De’Von Achane ($7,300) – Chalk of the week. Explosive + growing workload. 46% optimal rate in Sims. Fade at your own risk, but ownership will be massive.

Week 5 Start/Sit - Quarterback - Preview

Week 5 is here, and fantasy managers are starting to get a clear picture of who they can rely on. With injuries piling up and matchups becoming more telling, making the right start/sit calls is crucial for quarterbacks.

Start: Justin Fields Justin Fields looked electric in his return from a concussion, torching Miami for 226 passing yards, two total touchdowns, and 81 rushing yards on his way to 29 fantasy points. He’s hit that mark in both of his healthy starts this year, and Dallas is next on the schedule. The Cowboys have given up the most fantasy points to quarterbacks, with Russell Wilson, Caleb Williams, and Jordan Love all surpassing 32. Fields should be in line for another top-tier week and is a top-three QB play.

Sit: Trevor Lawrence Trevor Lawrence has only one strong fantasy outing this season, and Kansas City’s defense has clamped down since Week 1. With his inconsistency and the Chiefs limiting production, Lawrence is not a trustworthy option in Week 5.
