Anyone playing a MNF Draftkings?

[richig07]

Obviously only having a two game slate makes for slim pickins. However, I won a little cash yesterday, so I figured I'd play a small tourney.

The shallow pool of players, makes for some predicaments. Stuck between paying the extra 400 for Roethlisber, or rolling with Cousins. Feel like it's a coin flip. Not a fan of Roethlisber's banged WR corp and rolling out his backup TE. While Brown will see Norman all night. Still think they throw a lot. However, Cousins also sees a banged up PIT secondary.

All good at RB with Gurley and D-Will.

WR's... Skipping paying up for Brown. Such a shallow position tonight. I think DJax, Garcon and Tavon isn't a bad way to go. I know that's pretty sketchy. However, WR is the weakest position, IMO.

TE - Reed is so expensive, I'm tempted to go with Jesse James and pray for red zone targets

Flex - Money is getting thin... Eli Rogers? Hope for Ben to target him more, with Brown dealing with Norman? Rob Kelley seems like a wild card play. WSH looks like they'll ride the hot hand. Perhaps throw up a prayer and hope that's him? He did impress in pre-season.

D - LA seems like the only logical play vs SF

Anyone also playing tonight or have any thoughts?

I am playing.

Got Cousins for sure. I like him at home and Ben tends to struggle on the road.

I think investing in a couple cheap SF pass catchers is a good idea. Guys like McDonald and Patton. You probably have the money for that at TE and Flex. I like Rogers also though. Have all 3 in my lineup.

I hope our lineups aren't too square. Mine is similar. I guess all lineups will be relatively similar with only two games. I feel like 70-75% of lineups will have a RB combo of Gurley/DWill

Cousins
Gurley
DWill
DJax
Tavon
E. Rogers
V. McDonald
Hyde
Rams

Worked out. Unfortunately, Rams D, Gurley and not playing Brown bit me in the ass. Finished just barely short of the money. God, the Rams blow.
