Great week for the DFS Playbook last week as we hit on Matt Ryan, Kirk Cousins, DeMarco Murray, Pierre Garcon, Julian Edelman and Allen Robinson. But it is time to take this thing to the next level. This week we are laser focused on winning ALL of our 50/50's as well as swinging for the BIG MONEY in our GPP Tournaments.
Usually I avoid the Thursday Night game but this week I am going all in on the Giants and the Redskins. You will see Playbook plays for each position except defense tonight. Kirk Cousins happens to be my #2 overall QB this week so you know that I am loving me some Redskins this evening.
Remember, we update the Playbook on Saturday's with our ACTUAL LINEUPS that we are playing for both cash games and tournament play. Then we update again late Saturday night when we factor in the players who are officially OUT for this coming week and make our adjustments accordingly.
Here is the Thursday Editon of the DFS NFL Playbook for Week 4:
