Week in and week out we are diving into the best value plays at various positions. Each week always plays out differently, especially when deciding what areas to spend down on, and where to spend up. While many articles point out the top values, we hope to guide you in lineup construction as well. Pricing on DraftKings generally ties into fantasy point outcome, matchups, and ownership a little more than FanDuel does who use production as a heavier weight. Injuries, seasonal changes, and matchups all create value, and here at DFC we break that down for you. Our content is focused on the Main Slates, but you can find me answering questions in the comments, or on Twitter at @JGuilbault11. Premium access grants full list of value plays.

We are limited for quarterbacks below $6,000, and while people are looking at Kevin Hogan, which makes sense, Josh McCown is in a good spot. While Vegas isn't expecting much of the McCown-led Jets. However this matchup and likely game script makes him an interesting value this week. New England has allowed the second most passing yards, and are tied with Tennessee for the most passing touchdowns allowed. They are allowing the second highest opposing QB rating, and also a monster 8.9 yards per attempt. McCown is capable of a 200+ passing yard game and two touchdowns this week. Hard to peg him for anything more than that.
