Carson Wentz – QB – Philadelphia (DK: $10,800 / FD: $15,500)

Regardless of some sloppy total play, Wentz has been fairly good from a fantasy standpoint this season.

Darius Slayton – WR – NY Giants (DK: $9,200 / FD: $12,500)

BEST BARGAINS

Boston Scott – RB – Philadelphia (DK: $8,400 / FD: $6,500)

First off, Scott just isn’t low cost on DraftKings, however he’s nonetheless a fantastic total play over there. He’s a no brainer for less than $6,500 on FanDuel. As talked about earlier, Miles Sanders won’t play on Thursday. Some DFS managers might keep in mind Scott’s disappointing efficiency in Week 1 with out Sanders, as he recorded 35 yards on 9 carries with a 2-19 receiving line. Sport circulation wasn’t on his aspect that day, however it may very well be in opposition to the Giants on Thursday Night time Soccer. There aren’t many dependable choices on this Showdown slate, which makes Scott a respectable alternative by way of all codecs whereas probably a full-time function.

Austin Mack – WR – NY Giants (DK: $400 / FD: $5,500)

It is a DraftKings unique play. In an effort to stack the remainder of your lineup on DK, you’re going to wish to “punt” a FLEX spot. That’s the place Mack is available in. He’s solely $400 on DK whereas seeing 36 snaps (of 48) final week. He’s positioned for the same function on Thursday, and NYG ought to be throwing greater than their measly 19 makes an attempt final week.

ADDITIONAL NOTES

Travis Fulgham (WR – PHI) has had a pleasant two-game stretch for the Eagles, and he’s a stable DFS alternative tonight. That continues to be the case even with DeSean Jackson again within the fold, as Wentz will nonetheless lean on Fulgham with TE Zach Ertz out and TE Dallas Goedert probably sidelined as nicely.

Devonta Freeman (RB – NYG) is sensible by way of all codecs as nicely. The Giants wish to get him the soccer, leading to 20 and 19 touches respectively over the past two video games. The query turns into whether or not or not Freeman could make something occur behind a weary offensive line. Nonetheless, the prospect of 20 touches in a lackluster slate shouldn’t be dismissed.

Story continues

Daniel Jones (QB – NYG) might be extra of a event play than something tonight. I’ll think about him in money on FanDuel, as he’s simpler to mix into a top quality lineup with Boston Scott’s low cost wage over there … Evan Engram (TE – NYG) and Golden Tate (WR – NYG) belong within the tournament-only bucket. As talked about earlier, the Giants ought to be throwing extra, however neither pass-catcher is affordable when contemplating their lack of effectivity.

Corey Clement (RB – PHI) will function Philadelphia’s third-down again whereas probably seeing a handful of carries tonight. That places him on the event radar, hoping he can develop the hot-hand or sneak into the end-zone … We don’t actually know what to make of DeSean Jackson (WR – PHI) in his return. He’s a deep risk who can attain worth on a single play, however it’s laborious to foretell what number of alternatives he’ll really get whereas working his approach again from harm.

Richard Rodgers (TE – PHI) isn’t low cost on DraftKings, however he ought to be at the back of your thoughts for tournaments. In fact, that’s solely the case if Dallas Goedert is formally dominated out tonight. He noticed 60% of snaps final week whereas recording three receptions for 31 yards. Each of these numbers may rise in a non-imposing matchup with the Giants on TNF.
