No Filters, Exclusions, Locks, or Models Applied. Ran Colossus As Is.
Cash Game Projections
This is the first time in a while here I am off more plays than not on with what Colossus whipped up. The value QB has worked out well this season, so I can't totally knock it, and Oakland does have the 20th ranked pass defense, per Football Outsiders. As for Thomas Rawls, volume he seems like a fairly safe play, and paid off last week against a tough run defense. Minnesota ranks 23rd in rush defense, and you have to think AP and Rawls run the show for their offenses here. DeAngelo Williams gets a matchup against an average run defense, no line out yet, but gotta imagine game flow sets up for Williams to get a big workload.
Alshon Jeffery is one of my favorite WR's for this week, and really the Bears have a great duo if you wanted to go Cutler-Jeffery. San Francisco has a bottom five offense in the league, and Chicago can attack through the air, as well as in the run game. I love the balanced lineup of wideouts, but Landry and Fitz are somewhat reliant on receptions, making them better plays on DraftKings than FanDuel. Matchup wise Landry is in a good spot, and Fitz will have an easier matchup than Floyd and Brown, but still overall St. Louis isn't the best team to attack.
Greg Olsen should be a popular play this week, given New Orleans ranks 32nd against tight ends, per FO. Gostowski is always a lock for fantasy points, and the Bengals against the Browns will be as well.
GPP Projections
Any QB facing New Orleans is in play, and this week it is Cam Newton. He has been delivering a steady floor this season, but we saw last week Brian Hoyer's ceiling limited due to the Saints not staying in the game. This could happen again. David Johnson is one of the more popular value backs, and Colossus is giving him some love. Not an ideal matchup, but he is going to have a full workload. DeAndre Hopkins is likely be a bit lower owned in week 13, just with the matchup, and the week 12 performance. Hopkins is reserved for tournaments, due to his stellar upside, and really being very close to matchup proof. Kamar Aiken has seen a steady amount of targets in the last few weeks, and even though Matt Schaub is under center, the matchup still allows Aiken to be a top tier value play. Miami ranks 32nd against opposing WR1. Jacksonville ranks 30th against the tight end spot, and Delanie Walker is Mariota's go-to guy. He is a nice spin down from Olsen. Projections have some defenses ranked higher than usual, and Colossus has punted with the Chargers. Sure it is Osweiler, but is also still one of the worst defenses in the league.
Stack
Big Ben looks to be on track for week 13, and this stack has monster upside. I really love Martavis Bryant's matchup with Greg Toler, and Brown against Davis still favors Brown a fair amount. Big Ben had huge yardage in Seattle, but failed to deliver touchdown passes. Indy ranks 17th in pass defense, and are more of a bend don't break defense. Pittsburgh should be going for the jugular, trying to get Indy to come from behind with Matt Hasselbeck.
Lineup Including Stack
This is obviously much more fit for GPP's. I have faith in the Pittsburgh stack, but if Arizona gets their high powered offense working, watch out.
