NFL DFS DraftKings GPP Plays: Week 3

Week 2 was an unfortunate week for the NFL, as we saw a record number of players go down with injuries. DraftKings has done a good job of pricing up the backup running back to the point where there are not any “free square” plays that have opened up, so we will need to evaluate the board and determine which are our favorite options. There are limited players to “pay up” for this week, and instead we have several plays in the mid-range that are appealing from a projection and ownership perspective. We have two games (DET/ARI, DAL/SEA) that stand out with 55+ totals and a number of second-tier options that set up for sneakier stacks.

This sets up as a great week for GPPs on DraftKings – let’s take a look at some of my favorite tournament options.

Miles Sanders (RB, $6400 DK) – After missing Week 1 with a hamstring injury, Sanders returned to a full workload in week 2, playing 55 of 69 snaps and receiving 20 carries for 95 yards and a touchdown to go along with 7 targets in the passing game.
