2023 Week 6 NCAA DFS Picks for DraftKings & Fanduel

Week 6 of college football DFS on DraftKings promises to be another exciting ride through the unpredictable world of collegiate gridiron action. As the season progresses, we’re seeing some emerging stars and sleeper picks that can help your DFS lineup stand out from the competition. In this article, we’ll explore some under-the-radar quarterbacks, running backs, and wide receivers who offer great value for their price tags. Whether you’re looking to build a well-rounded lineup or simply seeking those hidden gems, we’ve got you covered.

Sleepers

Quarterbacks

Cade Klubnik of Clemson ($8000) is an intriguing option this week, and his dual-threat abilities make him an exciting DFS play. Klubnik showed tremendous poise in recent games, making him a potential fantasy steal. Another name to consider is Brady Cook of Missouri ($7400). Cook has been consistent, and has a fantastic matchup this week, which can add up quickly in DFS. Garrett Schrader from Syracuse ($7200) is a low-cost, high-reward option due to his rushing potential. JJ McCarthy of Michigan ($8100) and KJ Jefferson of Arkansas ($7300) also deserve a look, as they have favorable matchups that could lead to impressive fantasy outings.

Running Backs

LeQuint Allen of Syracuse ($5800) is an affordable option with big-play potential. He’s shown the ability to break away for long runs and could be a valuable addition to your DFS lineup. North Carolina’s Omarion Hampton ($5700) is another budget-friendly pick who has been steadily producing for his team. Rocket Sanders of Arkansas ($5500) is a versatile back who can contribute both on the ground and as a pass-catcher, making him an intriguing play after getting his first action of the season last week. Harrison Waylee of Wyoming ($5200) has been quietly putting up consistent numbers after recovering from the injury and offers excellent value for his price.

Receivers

When it comes to wide receivers, Devontez Walker of North Carolina ($3000) is a true bargain with the potential for a high return on investment after JUST being cleared to play by the NCAA on Thursday. His price tag is a steal for someone who has shown glimpses of being a top target for the Tar Heels. Jaheim Bell of Florida State ($4300) is another cost-effective choice with the ability to make big plays. Erick Hall of Iowa ($4200) provides an excellent combination of talent and value, making him an intriguing option. AD Mitchell of Texas ($5400), Jacolby George of Miami ($5200), Roman Wilson of Michigan ($6000), and Jaelin Gill of Fresno State ($5900) are all affordable choices with the potential to shine in Week 6.

High-Probability Position Groups

When analyzing college football matchups, it’s essential to identify position groups that have a high probability of success when facing an outmatched opponent. For instance, teams with dominant offensive lines going up against weaker defensive fronts often provide their running backs with the perfect opportunity to shine. Additionally, wide receiver groups facing vulnerable secondaries can exploit mismatches and put up big numbers. Quarterbacks facing defenses with a history of struggling against the pass also present promising opportunities for DFS success.

Recognizing these favorable position group matchups can be the key to assembling a winning DFS lineup and maximizing your chances of coming out on top this week.

Shootouts of the Week

By examining the implied scores derived from the point spread and over/under metrics, we can pinpoint games with the potential for offensive fireworks. When the over/under line is set high, it signifies an expectation of a high-scoring affair, making players from those contests particularly enticing for DFS lineups.

Additionally, games with narrow point spreads suggest closely contested battles where both teams will likely keep their foot on the gas pedal, creating opportunities for multiple players to accumulate fantasy points. Identifying these projected shootouts allows DFS enthusiasts to target players from these games and take full advantage of the potential for explosive point production this week.
