This is a very interesting slate with Championship Week for season long players and a lot of injuries which are creating opportunities and in turn Chalk Plays in Draft Kings. Sometimes Chalk is good but too much of it will have your lineup competing too much to stay afloat.
Let’s take a quick look at some of these plays that I am referring to:
Josh Jacobs Out: DeAndre Washington In
Derek Henry Out: Dion Lewis In
Nelson Agholor and all of the Eagles Wide Receivers Out: Greg Ward In
Also Jordan Howard is threatening to play – which would be interesting, should you see the opportunity Miles Sanders has at a great price – so keep an eye on it.
Also spoiler on the Monday Showdown, Dalvin Cook is out and either Alexander Mattison or Mike Boone will be in play
