Week 13 DraftKings Cash Game Breakdown
Week 13 Draftkings Cash Game Breakdown
Cash games take a bit of a different approach. We only need to finish in the top half of finishing positions. The goal is to get the safest floor with a bit of upside for the cheapest price. Ownership is an afterthought. I tend to look for the most guaranteed touches from the RBs and WR. A floor is just as important as a players upside in cash. If there’s value on the slate at WR I’ll play the top RBs otherwise I’m looking for the most touches in the mid range. Cash games are a great way to build your bankroll and stay profitable long term.
I will say that you should ALWAYS enter your cash lineups into a GPP. Believe me it is not fun coming 1st in a double up and winning the same amount as the person who came in 2,000th when you would’ve won a GPP.

QB
Brock Purdy $6,100
Prior to last week, Purdy threw three TDs in back to back games. The Eagles are horrendous defending the pass. They’re bottom five in passing yards allowed and have allowed the 2nd most passing TDs this season.
Russell Wilson $5,700
Rus has at least 30 yards rushing in three of hisblast four games. He gets to play in a dome this week in the game with the 2nd highest total on the slate. Houston has allowed the 6th most passing yards per game.
RB
Christian McCaffrey $9,000
The decision is between McCaffrey and Tyreek as pay up options. McCaffrey likely has a safer floor. You could possibly fit both but would probably be sacrificing too much elsewhere.
Alvin Kamara $8,200
Kamara leads RBs in targets and receptions this season. The Saints receiving core is decimated so double digit targets is likely his floor. The Lions have allowed a league high 10.1 yards per reception to opposing RBs.
Rachaad White $6,300
White isn’t flashy but gets a ton of work. He’s averaging 14.2 carries and 4 catches this season. Carolina is allowing 4.6 yards per carry and 16 rushing TDs which is the most in the league. It’s also a positive game script for White with the Bucs being 5.5 point favorites at home.
Zack Moss $4,600
Just take the free square. A starting RB that will get all the work at under $5k.
WR
Tyreek Hill $9,600
Tyreek has 1,324 yards, 10 TDs and 4.2 yards per routes run, all of which are league highs. Now he gets to play the defense who allows the most points to opposing WRs.
Michael Pittman $7,200
Pittman has at least eight catches in four straight games. Since Week 6 he’s averaged 10.7 targets, 7.5 targets and 81 yards per game. He has a 32% target share over that span. The Titans are bottom seven in points allowed to opposing WRs this season.
Josh Downs $5,100 is also in play but obviously not in the same lineup.
Terry McLaurin $5,500
With how often Washington throws the ball combined with being nearly ten point underdogs I feel a Washington pass catcher should definitely be in your Cash lineups. You can make a case for Samuel but I think McLaurin is way safer. He leads the team in targets and air yards.
Greg Dortch $3,700
Michael Wilson has already been ruled out, Marquise Brown and Trey McBride are banged up which all spell additional opportunities for Dortch. He had nine targets last week and eight the prior week.
TE
David Njoku $4,100
Njoku has been targeted regardless of who’s at QB. Amari Cooper is banged up which could increase Njoku’s target share even more. The Rams have allowed the 7th most yards to TEs this season.
Juwan Johnson $3,400
Johnson has been injured for most of the year but now with the rest of the Saints pass catchers injured he’ll likely be relied upon heavily. He had seven targets last week and let’s not forget he scored seven TDs over his last ten games in 2022.
DEF
ATL $3,400
DET $3,000
NE $2,400
