Between games on Thursday, Sunday morning, Sunday night and Monday night, and with six teams on byes, we have a very narrow set of games to focus on for the DraftKings main slate. Carson Wentz will be the chalk QB without a doubt, coming off three straight strong games and playing against the Niners. Zeke, even at $9,200, will be heavily owned with no Bell on the main slate. There are some very viable (but higher risk) low-cost running backs to roster which will allow you to pay up where you choose. It has been a very difficult year to find consistency at the wide receiver slot. So this week, we are going to pay up for two solid RBs and go down the list a little for two receivers who have been scoring touchdowns and another who has a history of big plays.
| QB | Tom Brady | NE | 7600 | Very high floor at a big price |
| QB | Dak Prescott | DAL | 7300 | At least 22.92 in four straight |
| QB | Carson Wentz | PHI | 7200 | 11 TDs in past three games and now faces worst defense |
| QB | Russell Wilson | SEA | 6500 | At least 29 points in three games but others are dogs |
