We can be looser with the WR spots in our lineups, showing profit with lower-owned plays (vs. RBs) and cheaper salaries (vs. RBs). You can read more about that in this Winning Milly Maker Trends article.
Still, volume is what we’re looking for – even at the cheap end.
Each week, I’ll discuss my favorite MAIN SLATE wideouts at $5000 or cheaper on DraftKings. But this week is an outlier — there are so many wideouts at $4000 or less who we project for 5+ targets that I am cutting it off there. And on FanDuel, I cut it off at $5200.
Note that this is not a full look at all cheap WR options. Be sure to consult our Projections, Top Plays (released Friday night) and Silva’s Matchups for more context on the position as a whole.
DRAFTKINGS BELOW $4000
1. Marquez Callaway, NO vs. GB, $3400 DK, $5200 FD
Training camp’s biggest riser. Callaway went from afterthought to clear-cut No. 1 WR in the wake of Michael Thomas’ injury. He was the star of both practices and preseason games, easily icing Tre’Quan Smith and Deonte Harris. We have Callaway for 19.8% of Jameis Wintson’s targets Sunday — a big number but not full-blown alpha. I do think that for tournaments, Callaway’s floor is lower than his ownership will suggest.
Projected targets: 6.7
2. Elijah Moore, NYJ at CAR, $3000 DK, $5000 FD
