Sleepers
Quarterbacks
In this week’s college football DFS landscape, we have several intriguing quarterback sleepers primed for success. Firstly, keep a close eye on Jason Bean of Kansas, priced at just $7,000. He’s stepping in for the injured Jaylon Daniels and possesses dual-threat capabilities that can pay dividends. Next, we have Max Johnson from Texas A&M at an enticing price of $6,500. Johnson’s poised to exploit a favorable matchup, offering a fantastic blend of passing proficiency and mobility. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly option, consider Behren Morton of Texas Tech at $6,300. With Texas Tech’s high-tempo offense, Morton has the potential to rack up fantasy points quickly. Lastly, don’t overlook Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi of Colorado State, also priced at $6,300. He’s been making waves in the Mountain West, showcasing his ability to light up the scoreboard both through the air and on the ground. These quarterback sleepers present excellent value for DFS lineups this week and could be the key to unlocking a winning formula.
Running Backs
In the realm of college football DFS running back sleepers, a trio of intriguing options beckons your attention this week. First up is Kaleb Johnson from Iowa, an enticing play at just $5,500. Johnson has displayed his knack for finding the end zone and can prove to be a cost-effective asset for your lineups. In a thrilling development, we have Kaden Feagin of Illinois, priced at a mere $4,500, and he’s getting his first collegiate start as a freshman with impressive size. His blend of talent and opportunity could make for a compelling play. Lastly, don’t overlook Jarquez Hunter of Auburn, also priced at $5,500. He’s a dynamic back who has the potential to exploit defenses and accrue significant fantasy points. These running back sleepers offer budget-friendly options to bolster your DFS lineups and potentially yield lucrative rewards.
Receivers
Starting with Erik All from Iowa, priced at a mere $4,300, he’s a compelling play in a prolific offense and can make a significant impact in your lineups. North Carolina’s Devontez Walker, at $5,900, offers a blend of talent and affordability, giving you a solid chance at quality production. Kyle Williams from Washington State, priced at $5,600, is another appealing option, known for his big-play potential and rapport with his quarterback. Tetairoa McMillan of Arizona, priced at $6,200, is a dynamic receiver who can exploit matchups and rack up valuable fantasy points. Last but not least, consider Tory Horton from Colorado State at $5,800, who’s consistently been a reliable target in an up-tempo offense – but make sure he’s healthy. These wide receiver sleepers provide an excellent mix of talent and affordability to enhance your DFS lineups and potentially elevate your winnings.
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.
