The Curious Case of the Jets and Cooper Kupp Returns: FanDuel Week 5 DFS Picks

Justin Herrera
October 8, 2023

Justin Herrera uses the RotoViz tools to bring you the top plays and some under-the-radar options for the FanDuel main slate.

This weekly article is a deep dive into some guys with exploitable matchups, something to prove, or who are just great deals on FanDuel. The goal is always to help you win money on a week-to-week basis. Barring that, at least you can have some fun playing DFS, in which case this article can help you get started on the road to profitability. Each week I’ll use the RotoViz tools to suggest top plays and sleeper picks for each position on FanDuel.

Quarterbacks

MUST-HAVE: KIRK COUSINS– $7,600

Kirk Cousins has the third-most passing yards in the NFL right now (1,214). He’s QB7 on the year and has been one of the most consistent guys week-to-week. Last week the Chiefs made Zach Wilson the QB14 on the week and that’s just a blemish we as fans can’t overlook. Cousins and the Vikings need a victory in Week 5 which should up the urgency for a big performance. Kirk isn’t in the prime time slot so its the perfect time for him to be in your FanDuel lineup.

SLEEPER: ZACH WILSON– $6,700

Zach Wilson is coming off his best performance of the 2023 season, with 245 yards and two TDs. As you can from the NFL Stat Explorer app, the Broncos have allowed 25.52 fantasy ppg to the last five opponents. The Jets’ bad offense is meeting the Broncos’ terrible defense. This is going to be the battle of the un-watchables, it may also be the only time we can play Wilson with confidence on FanDuel.
