DraftKings college football showdown picks November 22

For flex options, I have no issues using components of the Wyoming passing game, especially if it helps me get the Colorado pieces I want. The issues with Wyoming are that Tyler Vander Waal is an inconsistent passer at best. I wont use him, and that also limits the upside of the Wyoming receivers.

Josh Harshman has 12 receptions over the last two games though, so lock him in. I don’t care that he doesn’t have a touchdown. That’s 12 points just in receptions without the yardage. Austin Conway caught five passes last week, which was his cumulative total in the previous for games combined.

Rocket Ismail Jr.’s talent is mostly wasted at Wyoming. For those of you that never got to see his dad in college, go watch some YouTube videos. He was electric! His son isn’t quite the player, but even if he were, we wouldn’t know it here. Don’t pay for the name. Ismail was held without a catch last week. He is a target for GPP’s only.

Even if you elect not to use Marcus McElroy at captain, he needs to be in there as a flex pick. We need the salary relief for the big pieces of the Colorado State offense. McElroy is the starting running back and is just $3,000. I don’t care how tough the run defense is. The volume is still there.

If you aren’t comfortable with McElroy, you could pay up a bit more for Jaylen Thomas. Thomas splits carries with McElroy, but is a better receiver out of the backfield. That’s where Thomas’s hidden value is, meaning he probably has the higher floor tonight.
