NFL DFS Dart Board: Week 3

If we're looking for value on this slate at the RB position, then White has some appeal, especially on Draft Kings. Through two games he's only seen a small handful of carries, but he's also wrangled in six catches in each game and found the end zone once. Mac Jones will continue to rely on him as he develops into a better, more confident quarterback and that only raises the value of the veteran. The Saints are an absolute enigma right now, but what we do know if that they rank 30th in DVOA against running back pass-plays, so if that remains a weakness, Belichick, Jones and White are likely to continue exploiting it.

LATE ADD – Meant to add him on the original post and believe I even write that up in the Ja'Marr Chase section of the Playbook. With no Tee Higgins who is listed as doubtful and unlikely to play, Boyd becomes an immediate pivot, especially on DK at this bargain price. He was a favorite for Joe Burrow last season and should rekindle the on-field bromance with Higgins out of the way. He is highly undervalued and should warrant consideration.

Garbage-time points still count, people! We may not love the Lions or believe they will beat the Ravens, but we've seen them score some points over the first two weeks of the season and Cephus has scored a touchdown in both games. With Tyrell Williams on IR due to lingering concussion symptoms, Cephus steps in as the top receiving option on this team. Maybe that warrants him coverage from Marlon Humphrey a lot of the time, but we aren't hearing anything about shadow-coverage. If you're looking to save some salary for your GPP tournaments, Cephus could be exactly what you are looking for.

While Dalvin Cook is going to run heavy in this match-up and both Justin Jefferson and Adam Thielen will get the most attention from Kirk Cousins, Osborn has entrenched himself as a strong No. 3 option in this offense. Through two games, he's turned 15 targets into 12 catches for 167 yards and one touchdown and given the fact that the Vikings secondary is so porous, many of their games will require a heavy second-half passing scheme which keeps Osborn on the field. This game here with Seattle will be a prime example and those who need a little salary relief but still want a piece of a game with a 55.5 over/under can confidently turn to Osborn in GPP tournaments.

No Russel Gage means more snaps for Zaccheaus and if this game against the Giants turns into the shootout we expect it to be, he could be a fantastic option for salary relief. He's got the speed and the big-play upside you need/want in a GPP dart throw and we've seen Matty Ice unload the ball his way in the past. If you're playing on DK, I prefer to use Osborn who should see more targets come his way and they are the same price, but if you're playing on FanDuel or Yahoo, you can save a few extra bucks here with Zaccheaus.

I've been waffling back and forth between Miller and Tyler Johnson, but have settled on Miller because of his on-field rapport with Tom Brady. With Antonio Brown out this week and Jalen Ramsey likely to be all up in Mike Evans' business inside the red zone, this is a prime opportunity for Miller to step out as a dart throw for GPP tournaments. Yes, Rob Gronkowski will also get the looks, but the Rams are going to scheme for him inside the 20 and can be successful as they do rank fourth in DVOA against the position. Miller is the definition of a dart-throw and could end up a bullseye.
