In this space each week will be the top cash plays on FanDuel with strategies on how to build a profitable cash lineup. The backbone of 4for4’s cash game approach is our proprietary value metric, which goes beyond simple point per dollar projections. That value calculation extends to a player’s odds of hitting cash game value based on their implied volatility according to their floor, median and ceiling projections.

Quarterbacks

Unlike the last few weeks on FanDuel, getting up to the top tier salary quarterbacks might end up taking a Herculean effort, as we don’t have any clear sub-$6,000 value options at running back or wide receiver. As such, the premium options worth getting-up to are limited this week, with the 4for4 value metric liking, but certainly not loving, Jalen Hurts ($8,400), putting him on par with multiple sub-$6,500 quarterbacks. Instead, the metric points us to Tom Brady ($8,200), who has passed for either 300 yards or 3 touchdowns in 7-of-10 games this season and has a plus-matchup against Indianapolis pass-funnel defense. Justin Herbert ($7,800) is the only other top-end quarterback worth considering, but even he has a tough matchup against the division-rival Broncos, who rank fourth in schedule-adjusted fantasy points allowed (aFPA) to quarterbacks this season.
