• 0:05
  Speaker 1: All systems go.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Clear for liftoff. What is going on, everybody?
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Week 8 Cash Game Countdown. I'm
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: Title Town, breaking down all things cash. I am recording
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: this a day earlier than usual on Thursday. A lot
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: of questionable tags, like always. Only going to get worse
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: throughout the year, but that is why you should get
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: over to Shippenation.com. All core plays will be up. Four
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: on DraftKings, four on FanDuel. Under, as you can see
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: right here, Sports, NFL, Slate Station. You'll be able to
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: find that, as well as Hoops Player Pool, Tambo, Matt Bellman, Ham,
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: their breakdowns for FanDuel and DraftKings. Projections, ownership, the Stone,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: the best tool in the business. Also, Showdown as well.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Golf's still going on. NBA's still going on. NHL's still
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: going on. So it's a great time to get over
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: to the nation, see plans and pricing. It only gets
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: cheaper if you're with us longer.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: You can see monthly deals, annual deals.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: You also do have single sport options as well if
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: you're just looking for NFL packages.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: So we would love to have you. Definitely do get
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: in the Discord.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: If you do join, we're going to hop on over
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: to our partner optimizer at Saber Sim. We have 11
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: games on DraftKings and FanDuel this week. Two totals that
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: stick out in a tier of their own. That is
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: the Cardinals and the Cowboys and the Ravens and the Bills. So, yeah,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: a decent amount of some cash exposure will be there,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: but not a ton. It's kind of priced efficiently. So
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: we'll go through quarterback position by position, and we will
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: start with DraftKings.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: Let me make sure we are. Yep, on Saberson.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Let me sort by value. And we are going to
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: kick it off. DraftKings quarterback with what I believe to
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: be a lock. I am plugging in Dak Prescott. Unless
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: something dramatically changes.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: 6,300.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Again, this is one of the game environments you want.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Implied for 31 points, which is the most on the slate.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: I see no reason to go anywhere else but Dak
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: on DraftKings. It's actually a decently tough week on both sides.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: There are some decisions to be made. So it is
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: nice to get a lockout of the way to start
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: running back. I also like Chase Brown quite a bit
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: right now. If the slate locked right now, I'd be
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: playing him. He's still getting a good amount of touches,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: like 16, 17, 20. Piran has been more involved. But yeah,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: good spot at home. As big boy favorites, implied for
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: almost 30 points themselves. 6,300, too cheap. Can catch the
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: ball out of the backfield. After that, it gets a
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: little more difficult. I do think Gibbs is still in
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: play at 9,500. Not the best matchup. It's a lot
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: easier to get on FanDuel. We'll talk about that there,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: but If you can get Gibbs, I have no problem
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: with that. 1K, you could drop down to Bijan. Also
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: have no problem with that. Neither are must by any means.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: Do not think you'll have the salary to play both
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: of them. And then if you don't, Javante Williams, 7,300.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Looks very good. Obviously, again, applied for 31. Got there
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: at the end. Had a big game against the Eagles
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: on Monday night. Yes, you can play him and Dak.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: It's cash games.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: You're only trying to be 50%, 47%, whatever. Double up 50-50,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: you're playing in the field. So I think Javante's strong. But, yeah,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: not a must either. Tootin's cheap, 5,900. Bucky's cheap, coming
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: off a great game. Jill and Warren's still too cheap
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: at 6,600. I think that's probably where you're cutting it off.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: I don't hate Tony Pollard. I do think he is
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: more of a fan dual play than a draft Kings play. So, no,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: three running backs is not a must this week.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: It is in play.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Chase Brown right now is a priority for me. And
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: then after that, there's multiple different options at different price tiers.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Let's go to the receiver room, whereas– which is wide open.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: It is very difficult. I have no locks. Yeah, I
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: would love to get Puka. I think 8,600 is too cheap.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: But if you are playing Puka, you're probably not playing
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Gibbs or Bijan. If you're not playing those two, it
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: is a lot easier to fit Puka and you probably are.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: So that's the decision or at least one of them
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: on the slate. I still think Jamar Chase's price tag
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: at 7,700 is very good, implied for almost 30 points.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: I'm not worried about this Q tag at After that,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: I think it's Drake London, Parker Washington, T. Higgins, Zay Flowers,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: all of them in a little pricing tier below the
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Pukas of the world.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you see CD at $ 8, 100.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: I think I'd rather just go to Puka and find
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: the $ 500 or get savings to Chase or some of
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: these other guys. In terms of some value, again, I
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: mentioned Xavier Worthy already. Malik Washington is a fine value.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: KC Concepcion coming off a big game. Don't love the matchup,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: only in pipe for 18 points, but can get it
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: done in a lot of ways. Jeremy Bernard, definitely back
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: in play at 4,900.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: A.J.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Brown still, if he does go, very cheap, 5,900. Cheap
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: on both sites and only implied, or not only, implied
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: for 26 points, which is good on this slate. So,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Kendrick Bourne, maybe I'd be fine with. 3,900 is very cheap.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Gets exposure to the best game environments as well. So, Yeah,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: I think receiver is very difficult. The main decision will be,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: can you play Puka? Are you playing Bijan? Are you
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: playing Gibbs? What are you prioritizing? But enough mid-tier value
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: that looks strong at wide receiver. Tight end, I would
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: love to play Trey McBride. I'm just not sure on
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: DraftKings I'll have the money to do so.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: He is in play.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's not. If you are playing him,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: you're not probably playing any of Puka. Maybe you can
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: play one of Puka, Bijan, Gibbs. More than likely, it'd
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: probably be Puka. And then you're saving, and if you
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: are going McBride, you're probably going double tight end. But
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: there's enough value, I guess, a wide receiver where it's possible.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: I do think McBride's a little stronger on FanDuel. Still
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: not a lot, though. But yeah, 3,400 to Bretton Strange,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: 4K down to Mark Andrews. Those are big savings. I'm
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: fine with Dulcich. I prefer Mark Andrews, though. So if
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: you are playing Dulcich, you're probably playing both Andrews and
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: Dulcich as double punt tight end to jam in two
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: of three of Bijan Gibbs and Puka. Charlie Kohler as well,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: stone punt at 2,500. Again, you're not hoping for much.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: It's just what you get when you play Charlie Kohler
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: is the appeal to him. So I think it's McBride
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: if you're spending all the way up, otherwise Strange, Andrews, Dulcich, Kohler,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: and double tight end is in play this week as
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: well if you want to jam the studs. Defense, sorting
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: by value, sorting by ownership, looks like the Broncos going
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: to be pretty heavily owned. I think I'll just play
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: it and eat the chalk and cash. Is it the
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: best spot?
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: No.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: But the Chiefs didn't have not looked very good on offense,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: especially on Sunday nights. But it mainly comes down to
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: the price. $ 2, 300, which is the third off of the
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: stone min. Chargers against the Rams, no thanks. Titans against
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: the Bengals, no thanks. Cardinals-Dallas, no thanks. Dolphins-New England, no thanks.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: So nothing really stands out in terms of spend-ups. Yeah,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: I guess if you want $ 1K and you can find it.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Pittsburgh against Cleveland would be my next favorites. But yeah,
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: even $ 400 more, like Lions versus... The Vikings, sure, but
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: that 400 could go a long way on this slate.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: In a vacuum, I'd probably go Lions over the Broncos.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: But again, 400, you could find money to upgrade in
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: something that you like. So probably the Broncos and DK
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: Cash for the price tag. All right, let's get over
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: to FanDuel. Again, appreciate everyone hanging out. If you've been
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: hanging out all eight weeks, I appreciate you. Like button
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: is all I ask for. Subscribe button as well. It
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: helps us out a ton over.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: Here at Shippenations.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: Quarterback position, I think it's pretty similar to DraftKings I
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: am playing. Dak Prescott, I think. Trevor Lawrence is 300
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: cheaper if you do need the 300 savings and it
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: really gets you what you want. I wouldn't argue, I guess.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: They're implied for almost 29 points, only two points left.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: Just the game environment, though, feels a lot better for Dak.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: And yeah, so I think I'm playing Dak at 8K
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: right now.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: To running back?
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Jameer Gibbs, like I mentioned, an easier click on FanDuel
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: than DraftKings. I mean, you get 60,000 salary cap FanDuel, 50,000
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: on DraftKings, and Gibbs is 200 cheaper on FanDuel. So
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: I do plan on locking in Gibbs. Again, not the
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: easiest matchup, but the dude's just a monster. His usage
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: is unmatched. I want to start my lineups with Jameer Gibbs.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: After that, really like the price tag for Javante.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: Fits FanDuel scoring better than DraftKings as well. Excuse me.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: You can play Bijan with these guys as well. It
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: is very expensive. Then you'd be saving at tight end
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: for sure. You'd be not spending up at wide receiver.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: It's possible.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Probably not the route I would plan on going if
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: the slate locked right now, but who knows come Sunday
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: if some value opens up. Chase Brown, good price tag
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: on FanDuel. Tootin, good price tag. Warren, Bucky, Kyron, kind
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: of the similar guys that we talked about on DraftKings.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: And then a guy in a tier of his own,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: I mentioned Tony Powell. I do think he is more
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: in play on FanDuel than DraftKings. $ 6, 200. The next cheapest
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: we talked about is Tootin'. That 700 could go a
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: long way. So Tony Pollard in the cash game consideration
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: as well. Right now, though, Gibbs I'm thinking is a priority,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: and I think Javante Williams right now will be in
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: my lineup as well. But playing three running backs on
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: FanDuel pretty much always, so then finding a third one
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: is important. Wide receiver, definitely tough. I do think the
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: lock for me right now would be Jeremy Bernard. 5K
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: is just way too cheap if you compare others in
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: his range. Nobody is even close. Yeah, great game two
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: weeks ago. Not great last Sunday morning, but I'm going
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: right back to him on a slate where we want
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: to get spend ups. Jeremy Bernard after that comes down to, yeah,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: what are you doing at running back three? Are you
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: playing Bijan? If so, you're probably not playing Puka or
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: you're probably not playing Chase. If you're playing Tony Pollard,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: a lot easier to fit Puka or Jamar Chase. Higgins
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: looks good. Parker Washington looks good. Drake London looks good.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: Zay Flowers looks good. AJ Brown, assuming he goes too cheap.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Michael Wilson on FanDuel is a very good price tag
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: at 6,200. Uh, Don't think we really need Malik Washington
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: right now. But you could if you're playing Gibbs and
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Bijan or you're playing Trey McBride. You probably will need
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: to punt two wide receiver spots. So I think it's
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Jeremy Bernard. And then what you do after that depends
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: on what others spend. Tight end, very important. Again, Trey
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: McBride in a tier of his own.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: He is 7,300.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: So I'm not going to call him a lock because
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: you can get 2,200 savings to Strange, 1,900 to Kelsey, Laporta, Henry, Hawkinson.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: I do think you are playing either McBride. or you're
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: going to this 5K range, one of Strange, Kelsey, Laporta, Henry, Hawkinson,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: really don't have too many strong leans. I think my
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: gut right now says Strange, just because they're implied for
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: almost 29 points, or Laporta.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: But yeah, it wasn't great for Laporta last week as well.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: Ideally, I'd be able to get Trey McBride, but we
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: play a salary-based game, so I do not think he
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: is a must. Defense, sorting by value, the Lions look
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: to be the best, and then the Jags.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: Then the Rams.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, anytime the value is one of the cheaper defenses, obviously, 3,400.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: I think right now if the slate locked, I'm probably
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: just going to play them. Yeah, the Vikings are undefeated,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: but only applied for 21 points. The offense has not
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: been great. They're undefeated because of the defense. Kyler can
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: make mistakes in sacks. You get a home defense, 400
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: off of the minimum. And similar to the Broncos on DraftKings,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: when you just compare the ones cheaper, nobody is even
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: close in the same ballpark. So Right now, I do
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: think Lions defense on FanDuel, Broncos on DraftKings, I think
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: are two of the more core plays on this slate.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: That's all I got. Week 8. It's going fast, but
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: we still got over half the season left. Appreciate it.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: Have everyone hanging out. Again, like button helps us out
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: a ton. Subscribe button helps us out. Core plays will
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: be going up on Saturday. Updated Sunday if anything changes.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: Make sure to tune in Sunday morning to Hoop, Tambo,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: and myself breaking down the whole slate.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: Happy Halloween, everybody. Good luck in your week eight cash
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: game contest. I'm Titletown. Good luck. Be safe. Peace.
