As the season pushes forward and nears the halfway mark, Week 6 provides a good opportunity to use what we know and stake our claim on what is to come for the rest of the season. Once again, we’ll jump into Tiering Up the Competition! Here, you’ll find players we want to call out for good/bad reasons at each pricing level, helping you build your very best lineups for DraftKings Main and Night slates! Today, we’ll look at the Saturday Night Slate. Let’s take a look at our options….
Quarterbacks
High-Priced
This slate, in general, has a good deal of value – the night slates usually are a bit less tight on salaries, and as a result, most of the QBs we have interest in will be found in the mid-tier this week. However, at the top, there are a few options.
Nico Iamaleava ($9,200) is the priciest option at the position this week, and honestly, it’s less tempting than I would have predicted at the beginning of the season. So far, Nico has yet to see the highs of fantasy output that we’ve come to expect from the Heupel offense; however, his skill set makes him viable regardless of previous production.
