Best quarterback picks, Cowboys vs. Jaguars

Cash Games: Dak Prescott, QB, Dallas (DraftKings $6.2K, FanDuel $7.5K)

By his standards, last week was a poor performance from Dak Prescott. Look for the Cowboys to hit on all cylinders in this one.

Tournaments: Trevor Lawrence, QB, Jacksonville (Draftkings $6K, FanDuel $7.4K)

Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars may be chasing in this one. If so, the Jaguars pay at one of the fastest paces of play in the NFL. Lawrence is an excellent DFS Tournament play this week.

Best running back picks

Cash Games: Tony Pollard, RB, Dallas (DraftKings $7.1K, FanDuel $8.2K)

Some may be surprised to see Tony Pollard as a Cash game play over Ezekiel Elliott. Tony Pollard is the better RB at this stage in their careers and the back is most likely to provide explosive plays.

Tournament: Travis Etienne Jr., RB, Jacksonville (DraftKings $6K, FanDuel $7K)

Many DFS players will be scared of the Cowboys' front seven and drafting an RB to face them. Etienne has had an up-and-down season. The Jaguars would be wise to use Travis Etienne as a receiver out of the backfield, but they have shown a reluctance to do so. If Travis Etienne can hit a few big plays in a potentially explosive ball game, you can gain leverage against the field.

Wide receivers and tight ends

Cash Games: CeeDee Lamb, WR, Dallas (DraftKings $7.3K, FanDuel $8.1K)

CeeDee Lamb is the chalk play in this one. The Jaguars' defense has been beatable in the secondary all season. The Cowboys coaching staff has shown positive signs of moving the dynamic CeeDee Lamb around the formation to open him up to the most exploitable match-ups. CeeDee Lamb could be in the running for the top receiver in fantasy football this week.

Tournament: Christian Kirk, WR, Jacksonville (DraftKings $6.6K, FanDuel $7.1K)

Christian Kirk is the top receiving option for the Jacksonville Jaguars in this one. Dallas CB Trevon Diggs stays on the outside for the most part. The Jaguars are unique in their top receiver, Christian Kirk, who plays in the slot away from Trevon Diggs. This game has the makings of a potential shoot-out, which should keep Christian Kirk a top option.
