Week 8 was fun right? We always have a good time here at high value plays. Let’s jump into an intriguing Week 9!
As we open up each new chapter in the 2018 NFL season, we get to peel back more and more layers of each NFL team. Week 9 presents some great matchups we need to take advantage of. If you’re new to playing daily fantasy, you’ve come to the right place. We can teach you everything you need to know so you’re ready for gameday.
For any beginners and or first-time players of FanDuel: You select a contest. Each contest will cost X amount of dollars to enter. Each contest will tell you how much you can win for each placing. Something else really cool about FanDuel? They will give you a $20 deposit bonus when you make your first deposit. That deposit has to be at least $5.
FanDuel will also give you a $20 bonus each time you refer a friend and they utilize the app. This is a great opportunity for those who love DFS and who know others that love to play as well. We highly recommend you take advantage of these great opportunities as they will help you and your friends get the most out of FanDuel.
After you get all of that squared away you enter a contest of your choosing and pick a dollar amount. Select your lineup, stay under the $60,000 cap and hope for the best. So let’s dive in and take a look at FanDuel’s Week 8 highest-value plays. Always remember stacking your quarterback with one of his skill position players allows you the opportunity to score more points in a good matchup.
Some changes will be made to high value plays. We want to shift our focus onto the four main position groups, instead of listing a flex option. Sometimes it’s best to simplify and garner our attention on the highest value on our four main groups. With skill positions being key. From here on out the flex is gone as we turn our full attention to our quarterback, running back, wide receiver and tight end. The flex position should always be a streaming option based upon the very best matchups.
We have given plenty of examples of how to utilize the flex on FanDuel. The best option going forward is to let you know which players we highlight also qualify for a flex role. Since this is High Value plays, essentially each skill position player can and will be utilized as a flex option in all lineups. This reason alone is why we want to highlight the main flex alert candidates as we go along, instead of featuring only one each week.
What we really aim to show week in and week out in this article, is to show everyone the best value based upon matchups. We can’t predict actual gameflow and scores. We take the data given and do our best to deliver the highest value players from each position to help all of you have success every weekend. So what are you waiting for? Let’s dive into Week 9!
