Let’s look at the DraftKings College Football 12/22 Saturday 4 game slate and see where the best fantasy football values are hiding.

DraftKings College Football QB’s

Jamie Newman  (Wake Forest, $8200)
An all or nothing guy but a great GPP selection.  Include him in some lineups; if he is on, he will post the highest score of any fantasy football Saturday QB.  This game sports a 73 total, highest of all the bowls except for Alabama.

Kelvin Hopkins Jr  (Army, $7000)

The Army offense is the running game, so when Army scores it’s either by him or their RB Darnell Woolfolk.  Army’s implied team total is 32, so he can get you 2-3 touchdowns at the 2nd lowest price for a starting QB.

DraftKings College Football RB’s

Darnell Woolfolk  (Army, $5700)
Same story as Hopkins mentioned above.  He can get you 2-3 touchdowns, has a projected ceiling of 26.9, and at $5700 his cost is too low.

More from FanSided

Cade Carney  (Wake Forest, $6900)

If you want to chase his last performance you can.  At Duke he rushed for 223 yards with 2 TD’s, posting 37.3 Draftkings points.  This is way above his average but Wake will give him a chance to do it again.  This is the game with the 73 total.

Patrick Taylor Jr  (Memphis, $8300)
The offense will run thru him.  With starting RB Henderson out and Memphis without a viable passing game, Taylor will get a ton of carries.  He’s a quality back as well, posting an average of over 30 DK points the last 3 weeks.  He will be difficult not to roster even at the elevated cost.

DraftKings College Football WR’s

Sage Surratt  (Wake Forest, $5700)

Providing Greg Dortch does not play, this guy will be on top of the depth chart and a huge value.  Back up WR’s Bachman and Washington are also a decent low-cost roster, but again only if Dortch is out.  Stack your pick of these 3 with QB Newman, focusing on Surratt.

Jojo Ward  (Hawaii, $6000)
Hawaii boasts a great passing game and 3 good receivers, all with equal stats lately.  Jojo is the cheapest price and has averaged nearly 30DK points the last 2 weeks.  Stacking is tricky because Hawaii uses 2 QB’s, however the starter looks to be Cole McDonald.

Deondre Douglas  (Troy, $5000)

A viable low-cost roster if you need a cheaper fill-in.  Troy doesn’t have much of a passing game but he has caught a TD in 5 of his last 6 games.
