College Football DFS Main Slate Breakdown: Week 14
Andy Smith (a25smith) is here to walk you through the upcoming DraftKings slate. He will break down his favorite DFS picks at each position and will also lay out his strategy for how he is attacking the slate overall.
I’ll be filling in for Micah for the rest of the season, as he’s on newborn duty. Feel free to throw him a congrats in the Discord and then stay for injury monitoring and CFB DFS discussion. There are some injuries to monitor with CJ Baxter, the Georgia WRs and Brock Bowers, Jase McClellan, and the FSU QB position. Overall, this is a tougher slate due to it being Conference Championship Week. By and large, there are a lot of rock-solid defenses, but I do think there are some spots to lean in to, so let’s get to the breakdown.
College Football DFS Main Slate Breakdown: Top DraftKings Picks for Week 14
Quarterback
Core Plays
Jayden Maiava
$6,800
QB is tough this week, as there’s really just a big group all jumbled together, so it’s tough to separate and rank these guys. I’m just going to lean into the game environment here with the highest total on the slate and the fact that White is my favorite WR on the slate. Basically, I’m kind of building backwards and correlating Maiava with White. Maiava has been up and down, but you’re not going to find a sure thing at QB this week.
Boise is the worst pass defense on this slate, allowing 265 passing yards per game, and that’s including recent matchups against run-heavy teams in New Mexico, Wyoming, and Air Force. They also caught Utah State with a bunch of injuries at QB. Otherwise, teams have thrown it with success against this team, so I’ll take the easiest matchup on the slate and roll with Maiava as a cheaper QB option.
