NFL DFS DraftKings Cash Picks: Week 5 (Fantasy Football)

Dec 1, 2024; East Rutherford, New Jersey, USA; Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba (11) is tackled by New York Jets cornerback Michael Carter II (30) during the second half at MetLife Stadium.

NFL DFS cash games are all about building a high-floor lineup that can win in head-to-heads, 50/50s, and double-ups. Each week I’ll highlight my favorite cash game picks that I have some confidence heading into the weekend to put into my player pools.

For more on cash game strategy, be sure you listen to our DFS Cash Overview episode. Be sure you’re also subscribed to the DFS Podcast where Kyle and I go through the main slate every Friday and recap each slate on Tuesdays. Let’s get after it!

*Note: Plays listed below are in order of salary, NOT necessarily ranked by preferred plays. I’ll be updating this article from Friday – Sunday pending any news, so be sure to check back prior to lock!

Quarterbacks

Justin Fields $5,600 vs. DAL
Does Fields have issues as a real life NFL QB? Yup! Is he still awesome for fantasy? Yup! Fields logged 29.5 and 28.1 in two of his three starts this year, and he’s leading all qualified QBs in fantasy points per drop back. Despite missing 1.5 games (exited vs. BUF early due to concussion), Fields is still second among all QBs in rushing yards, and of course, this matchup is B-E-A-utiful. The Cowboys are allowing 6.4 yards per play (31st), they’re dead last in EPA per play, 28th in first downs allowed per game and 30th in points per play.
