PREVIEW:

Some SD slates it is just a process of elimination to get on the best picks, some slates are just straight forward slates, and others are this slate where anything can happen. I really hate this slate as a whole we have a Washington offense that has really sucked lately, and the player we would want to be on the most for them Antonio Gibson is in a tough matchup. We have the Cowboys who have looked shitty for a team that is winning games. They have been spreading the love out quite a bit.


 
These teams just met in week 14 and it was a shitty game both QBs really struggled both RBs really struggled, Cam Sims had the most points on the slate scoring 16.1 DK points, Terry McLaurin was shut out, and all the DAL WRs hit value but none of them dominated.

On top of that we have to figure out what to do with Antonio Gibson personally I hope he sits that makes the slate a little easier. Jaret Patterson would be the easy play of the night if Gibson sits. If he plays Patterson could still hold value but now he is priced up because of the potential for Gibson to sit.

NEWS:

The news tonight is that everyone is active that is expected to be active. No COVID related "OUTs". The only news we are waiting on is Antonio Gibson.

Cowboys:

I do like the Cowboys here tonight as I like basically all of their pass catchers and I think that they will all hit value like they did just two weeks ago. I would rank them Lamb, Cooper, Gallup. So I do not see much of an edge their. Obviously if we are playing 2 or more of the WRs then we will most likely want to be on Dak. The issue with Dak is that he has been inconsistent scoring over 20 DK points just once in the last 5 weeks. At this price point tonight that is what we would need him to get. He also really struggled in week 14 against The Football team only scoring 12 DK points.

Zeke is going to be a TD dependent play tonight but personally I like Tony Pollard a little bit more tonight. He is cheaper and have been extremely consistent lately scoring over 10 DK points in 4 out of his last 5 games.

Dalton Shultz I do not mind but I will not be using him too much unless I end up on him.

I do think that we can go out of our ways to play the Cowboys D though. They have scored over 16 DK points in 3 straight games. They have been very impressive, and at their price point they make for a quality play. Heck I could see a path where you get a way with playing them in the Captain spot.

Cowboys Build:

Washington: The is issue with The Football team tonight is that everyone is priced correctly, and everyone is only and "ok" play.

Ricky Seals-Jones is the player that I like the most I guess. The issue is that he has been splitting snaps with John Bates. RSJ saw 7 targets last week whereas Bates only saw one target. So this suggests to me that Bates is in there to block, and RSJ is there to catch passes.

Adam Humphries is another ok play tonight. He has seen 6, 7, and 5 targets the last three weeks. The issue is that he has not scored over 8 DK points, and he is priced up. He would be a solid lineup filler if he was priced 2K cheaper.

Cam Sims, and DeAndre Carter are ok plays as they have been getting around 50% of the snaps but personally both plays are just that you're hoping to get lucky with a TD.

I do like Taylor Heinicke as he has been pretty consistent as a fantasy producer, if you're looking for "Raw" points I think he will be a good enough play but I do not really see him being in the winning lineup. Same thing goes for Terry McLaurin.

Once again the news we are waiting on is if Gibson is active or not if he is not just lock Patterson into your builds.
