Hopefully you got in a ton of lineups with our Thursday edition of the DFS Playbook that featured just two players from that game in Emmanuel Sanders and Antonio Gates. All those two did was combine for 14-174-5 on the eveing. Yeah that is right... FIVE TOUCHDOWNS!! If you missed out on the Thursday edition that is alright too. Well actually it isn't but we will help make it right. This edition of the DFS Playbook features some under the radar plays such as Nick Foles, Jeremy Maclin and Mike Wallace. I am loving these guys this week as well as the insane RB you see on the main photo of this article in Marshawn Lynch.
