College football DFS wide receiver picks November 5:

Top Tier:

Romeo Doubs should have been the highest priced Nevada receiver last week too. This week, DraftKings not only did us all a favor and updated the stats, but they corrected the pricing discrepancies. Pay up. Doubs is in for another big one here.

Colorado State tight end Trey McBride was the only guy that could get open against Fresno, so he had a big number of targets. He will again against this Wyoming defense. The number of targets puts him a notch above Cole Turner in this one, but neither are a bad option if you can afford them.

Middle Tier:

The Rams insist that Dante Wright will play this week. That not only helps the quarterback, whoever that may be, but it could diminish the target load of McBride a bit. That said, McBride is easily the second-best receiver on this team. They aren’t going to just ignore him.

If Utah State does hang with Nevada, it will rest on the shoulders of Deven Thompkins and the quarterback’s ability to get it to him. Thompkins is way too cheap for a featured receiver. I like him quite a bit at this price.

Nate Craig-Myers is a nice pick if Colorado State has a quarterback that can get them the ball. I still have questions about that part. His price is cheap enough that I don’t mind running him even with Wright back, but I will only do so in large field GPP’s.

Bargain Shoppers:

Justin Lockhart is seeing a nice number of targets for a receiver this cheap. He has ten catches in two games. You can do worse for a price saving option.

Utah State tight end Justin McGriff is still a good option too. The offense is struggling, so they often look towards the shorter pass. McGriff should put up a solid total just on receptions alone.
