We've already established that I'm relatively awful at the Daily Fantasy Sports thing. No need to belabor that point further.
So, let's see who I'm put in my group of impending failure this week.
Position | Player | Team | Opponent | Salary |
QB | Philip Rivers | SD | @ OAK | $8,000 |
RB | Chris Ivory | NYJ | @ NE | $7,800 |
RB | Todd Gurley | STL | CLE | $7,400 |
WR | Julio Jones | ATL | @ TEN | $9,100 |
WR | Jarvis Landry | MIA | HOU | $7,100 |
WR | Stefon Diggs | MIN | @ DET | $5,800 |
TE | Benjamin Watson | NO | @ IND | $5,300 |
K | Blair Walsh | MIN | @ DET | $4,700 |
D | St. Louis Rams | STL | CLE | $4,500 |
Total Salary | $59,700 |
Yep, still on the Diggs hype train (WOO WOO!) even though Minnesota is going to have all of their receivers healthy for Sunday's game. He's just been too productive to ignore and Detroit's defense has had issues stopping anybody. With Diggs/Walsh and Gurley/Rams defense, I've also doubled up on two different games, which is something I generally avoid. We'll see how it works out this week.
So, if you wanted to field a full team of Minnesota Vikings this week, how would it look?
Position | Player | Week 6 Salary | Week 7 Salary | Change |
QB | Teddy Bridgewater | $6,600 | $6,600 | $0 |
RB | Adrian Peterson | $8,900 | $8,900 | $0 |
RB | Jerick McKinnon | $5,000 | $5,000 | $0 |
WR | Stefon Diggs | $4,500 | $5,800 | +$1,300 |
WR | Mike Wallace | $5,400 | $5,400 | $0 |
WR | Jarius Wright | $4,900 | $4,900 | $0 |
TE | Kyle Rudolph | $5,000 | $5,000 | $0 |
K | Blair Walsh | $4,600 | $4,700 | +$100 |
D | Minnesota | $4,500 | $4,600 | +$100 |
Totals | $49,400 | $50,900 | +$1,500 |
Well, it's getting more expensive to own Minnesota Vikings in daily fantasy sports. And by that, I mean it's getting more expensive to own Stefon Diggs, since he pretty much drove the jump in the overall total for the Vikings this week.
So, that's what I've got. What are you looking at this week?
