Now onto the DraftKings Optimizer, where Colossus added in three running backs for the cash projection lineup. We saw Freeman and Woodhead in the FanDuel lineup, and they have slightly more worth here on DK at their prices, and scoring system. Dion Lewis also makes an appearance, and is still priced cheap despite scoring some hefty points in the opening weeks.

Russell Wilson should put up some quality points against the Bears, and he is reasonably priced.

Allen Robinson was one of the biggest surprised in week 2, and we could be chasing some garbage time points with him. The Pats should be up big from the get go, meaning the Jags will keep on throwing. His price did not take a leap either. As for Brown and Edelman, just lock them in no questions asked.

Colossus is on Travis Kelce this week, and I like the pick here. I think we could very well see a shootout on Monday Night.

Seahawks defenses versus Jimmy Clausen and the Bears? Yes!

Just a slight change in the GPP lineup, as Colossus added in an extra wideout, dropping Devonta Freeman from the roster. This creates a bump for week 2 superhero, Larry Fitzgerald.

Going Eifert is a decent pivot from Kelce in another roster.

Bucs defense could be facing a team without Arian Foster, and DeAndre Hopkins. It could be a pretty sneaky play for tournaments, if the Bucs can flash some playmaking ability on defense.

I love the Robinson pick on DK with there being a full PPR. I can not get behind Lewis in any format. He has played great the first two games but also fumbled a bunch. This is also the week I could see Blount being unleashed and the Patriots run the ball 40 times.

The Blount week is coming soon, you are definitely right, could be this week. Coach Bill will flip the script soon.

As a season long owner of Blount I hope it is this week. I love him in that offense.

I saw a couple line-ups with Jordan Reed (if you set setting to include Thursday games). He got 15.6 points for 3 of my teams last night. Good call!

@WhoDeyNation - I exclude the Thursday game when running these, but I did notice him in as well. He has turned into a solid tight end play, as Kirk Cousins' go to guy. Did you play anyone else from last night's game?

No I didnt. I havent felt good about any of the Thursday games lately. I did snag Gillmore and Jordan Reed in a couple of my leagues.

Thursday night games are always pretty sluggish, but actually good contests to get into and just avoid the game all together. People feel the need to take Thursday players in those contests. You get a bit of an advantage.
