One of the best aspects of fantasy football has become playing on DraftKings. Every week is like a new puzzle to figure out. Whether you are more of a cash game player or a tournament player, each presents a unique challenge.

This week 52% of recommendations hit the 2.5x value we look for in cash game lineups. This time the quarterback group led the way with an 80% success rate. Meanwhile, the running back group brought up the rear this week with a 14.3% success rate. It was another week in the negative. The cash build won five of the seven double-ups and went 8-10 in H2H\u2019s.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Week 7 \u2013 $340 \u2192 $281 <\/span><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><b>($59 LOSS)<\/b><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Year Total \u2013 $2,122 \u2192 $2,473 <\/span><span style=\"color: #00ff00;\"><b>($351 PROFIT)<\/b><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Week 7 DraftKings Plays<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Quarterbacks<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Jalen Hurts (PHI) \u2013 $7,200 @ DET<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All Jalen Hurts does is turn in good fantasy days. Sometimes it doesn\u2019t look pretty and it might take until the fourth quarter but he always comes through. Seriously though, his worst game of the season was still good for 21.8 DraftKings points and has returned value every week this year. Hurts is currently averaging 26 DraftKings points per game. His rushing ability is what has given him such a great floor. So far on the season, he has 66 carries for 361 yards and five touchdowns. The matchup this week against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/lions\/\" target=\"_self\">Detroit Lions<\/a> is about as sweet as it gets. While the Lions haven\u2019t allowed a ton of DraftKings points to opposing quarterbacks so far, they are the least efficient passing defense in the NFL. On top of that, Hurts can beat you both through the air and on the ground. The combined total sits at a nice 48 and the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/eagles\/\" target=\"_self\">Philadelphia Eagles<\/a> implied total is at 26. The cherry on top is this game will be played in a dome. Expect Hurts to continue his streak of good games and return great value.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Jalen Hurts could have -6 fantasy points entering the fourth quarter and we&#39;d all know he&#39;d still finish with 20.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; JJ Zachariason (@LateRoundQB) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LateRoundQB\/status\/1452408573623947265?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 24, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><b>Carson Wentz (IND) \u2013 $5,700 v TEN<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carson Wentz has been ballin out a bit lately. He has exactly two passing touchdowns in each of the last four games. On the season Wentz has 11 passing touchdowns and only one interception. He\u2019s definitely having the bounce-back season the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/colts\/\" target=\"_self\">Indianapolis Colts<\/a> were hoping for when they traded for him. He isn\u2019t running as much as in his younger days but he\u2019s still pitching in a little with his legs too with 97 rushing yards and a score on the ground on the season. This week\u2019s matchup against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/titans\/\" target=\"_self\">Tennessee Titans<\/a> is enticing. The Titans are allowing the eighth-most DraftKings points to quarterbacks so far. This game has a very nice 51 point combined total and will be played in a dome. It\u2019s also projected to be a back-and-forth game so Wentz could be a great option when spending down this week.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Others to Consider: Josh Allen<\/i><\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (BUF) \u2013 $8,100 v MIA, <\/span><\/i><b><i>Matthew Stafford<\/i><\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (LAR) \u2013 $7,600 @ HOU, <\/span><\/i><b><i>Tom Brady<\/i><\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (TB) \u2013 $7,400 @ NO<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h3><b>Running Backs<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Jonathan Taylor (IND) \u2013 $7,200 v TEN<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After a slow start, Jonathan Taylor has come alive over the past four games. Through three weeks, he scored single-digit DraftKings points twice and topped out at 17.6. Since then, Taylor hasn\u2019t scored less than 22 DraftKings points. He\u2019s had at least 110 total yards and a touchdown in all four games. Taylor is a bit touchdown-dependent but he has seen a bit more targets recently. Ultimately, he\u2019s one of the most explosive running backs in the league and can take any touch to the house. This week\u2019s matchup against the Titans is solid. The Colts are home favorites, in a dome, with a 27-point implied total. Assuming Taylor gets his normal workload, he should have no problem returning value again this week.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Jonathan Taylor vs. The greatest RB seasons since the invention of <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BrotoFantasy?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@BRotoFantasy<\/a> SYOE<\/p>\n<p>(Maybe he is generational \ud83d\ude09) <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/65sgya14yE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/65sgya14yE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Jakob Sanderson (@JakobSanderson) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JakobSanderson\/status\/1454078890612183040?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 29, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><b>Darrell Henderson (LAR) \u2013 $6,500 @ HOU<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, Darrell Henderson was a bust last week after being the most popular running back on the slate, but let\u2019s double down here and go back to the well. Despite busting, he still saw a workhorse workload. Henderson saw 15 carries and six targets but just wasn\u2019t able to get anything going. His snap share was 88% and his snap share on the season is a healthy 81.4%. This week Henderson gets another great matchup against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/texans\/\" target=\"_self\">Houston Texans<\/a>. The Texans are one of the worst teams and defenses in the NFL. As it currently sits, the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/rams\/\" target=\"_self\">Los Angeles Rams<\/a> are massive 15.5-point favorites and have an implied total of 31 points, the second-most on the slate. Henderson is in the same position that made him so popular last week so there\u2019s no reason to go away from him. Hopefully, fewer people will play him having been burned last week making him an even better GPP play.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Khalil Herbert (CHI) \u2013 $5,400 v SF<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was a bit of a surprise to see Khalil Herbert keep a huge workload even with Damien Williams back. It was even more of a surprise to see him produce 133 total yards, including 100 on the ground, against the vaunted <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/buccaneers\/\" target=\"_self\">Tampa Bay Buccaneers<\/a> rush defense. He\u2019s looked extremely impressive and has played at least 77% of the snaps the last two weeks. His usage in the passing game has steadily increased as well. There is some concern that Williams could see more work this week but Herbert has earned the right to continue to be the workhorse. This week\u2019s matchup against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/49ers\/\" target=\"_self\">San Francisco 49ers<\/a> is not ideal but it\u2019s nothing to be scared of. The combined total is low at 39.5 and the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/bears\/\" target=\"_self\">Chicago Bears<\/a> implied total is all the way down at 18. This one, though, is all about the workload at a low price.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Others to Consider: Joe Mixon<\/i><\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (CIN) \u2013 $6,900 @ NYJ, <\/span><\/i><b><i>D\u2019Andre Swift<\/i><\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (DET) &#8211; 7,100 v PHI, <\/span><\/i><b><i>Derrick Henry<\/i><\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (TEN) \u2013 $8,900 @ IND, <strong>Elijah Mitchell<\/strong><\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0(SF) \u2013 $5,400 @ CHI<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h3><b>Wide Receivers<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Cooper Kupp (LAR) \u2013 $9,000 @ HOU<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cooper Kupp is on a historic pace right now. Through seven games he\u2019s already racked up 809 yards and nine touchdowns on 56 receptions. That puts him on pace to finish with 136 catches for 1,964 yards and 22 touchdowns. That yardage total would set an NFL record. Kupp hasn\u2019t had a single game with less than 10 targets yet. As previously mentioned, the matchup against the Texans is a juicy one. The Rams have a massive 31-point implied total. The Texans secondary is no match for this high-powered Rams offense. This game is also being played in a dome which is even more of a boost for the passing games. There\u2019s no reason to expect Kupp to slow down in this one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Tee Higgins (CIN) \u2013 $5,200 @ NYJ<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This may come as a surprise but Tee Higgins is actually the leader in target share on the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/bengals\/\" target=\"_self\">Cincinnati Bengals<\/a>. Ja\u2019Marr Chase has been the wide receiver stealing all the headlines and has the most production so far but it\u2019s been Higgins that is actually getting targeted more often. Higgins showed playmaking ability last year as a rookie. Just last week he saw 15 targets. That type of target volume is hard to find, let alone at a cheap price tag. This week\u2019s matchup against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/jets\/\" target=\"_self\">New York Jets<\/a> is a great one. While the Jets haven\u2019t allowed a ton of DraftKings points to wide receivers so far, they are one of the worst defenses in the league. The Bengals have a nice 27-point implied total as well and should be able to move the ball with ease. With everyone enamored over Chase, it may be Higgins who ends up being the much better play on this slate.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Bengals?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#Bengals<\/a> WR Target Shares in the 5 Games All 3 WR Played<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udfaf28.3% Tee Higgins \ud83d\udd25\ud83d\udd25\ud83d\udd25<br \/>\ud83c\udfaf23.7% Ja&#39;Marr Chase<br \/>\ud83c\udfaf17.1% Tyler Boyd<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Derek Carty (@DerekCarty) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DerekCarty\/status\/1453420616623734789?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 27, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><b>Jerry Jeudy (DEN) \u2013 $4,900 v WFT<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Admittedly, it\u2019s a bit risky to start a player in their first week back from injury. However, all reports from the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/broncos\/\" target=\"_self\">Denver Broncos<\/a> camp were that Jerry Jeudy was close to returning last week and should be full-go this week. Assuming full health, this price is simply too cheap considering what we saw in Week 1 before Jeudy got hurt. In the opener, he saw seven targets and racked up six catches for 72 yards. This week he gets a soft landing spot against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/washington-football-team\/\" target=\"_self\">Washington Football Team<\/a>. Washington has done a complete 180 on defense this year. Last year they were one of the best defenses in the league and they\u2019ve turned into one of the worst.

Kyle Pitts is really only the true spend-up option at the position. Dallas Goedert, however, looks like the most expensive tight end to consider for cash builds this week. Goedert has a great setup this week. As previously mentioned, this game is very enticing for the Eagles, especially in the passing game. Miles Sanders was placed on the IR so they may become a bit more pass-heavy than previous games. This Lions defense can\u2019t defend the pass whatsoever. Zach Ertz was also traded recently which should open up even more snaps and routes for Goedert. Playing as a top passing option against a horrible pass defense, with a nice implied total, and in a dome is a nice spot for any tight end to be. Goedert is a great play and will likely be one of the most popular tight ends this week.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">As expected, massive usage for Dallas Goedert in first game of season without Zach Ertz:<\/p>\n<p>* 64-of-69 snaps<br \/>* 27 slot, 5 wide, 32 inline<br \/>* 35 routes on 41 Hurts dropbacks<br \/>* 5 targets for a 14.7% share<br \/>* Caught a 2-pt conversion<br \/>* 3-70-0 result<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Adam Levitan (@adamlevitan) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/adamlevitan\/status\/1452663798368669697?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 25, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><b>Dan Arnold (JAX) \u2013 $2,800 @ SEA<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dan Arnold was traded a few weeks back and has had an instant impact with his new team.
