Welcome to Week 6!

Welcome back to another Sunday! Welcome back to chaos!

It's Bucky Irving week! The FFT Newsletter fam's favorite preseason RB has clearly outshined Rachaad White as a rookie, and he's actually been one of the most effective players from any backfield on a per-touch basis, according to the Fantasy Points Data Suite.

Irving will presumably draw his first NFL start in Week 6. What a time to be alive!

The DFS Helper should help point you in the right direction, but feel free to reach out to me on Twitter if you have any further questions! I try to respond to tweets throughout the week; I also have a weekly Twitter Q&A each Sunday morning to answer any lineup setting questions you have. Good luck this weekend everybody!

Not sure if I'll use either of these two, but I did want to highlight them for tournament players:

Ja'Marr Chase ($9,500 - CeeDee Lamb is my preference if paying up, but an all-out Bengals onslaught involving Chase and Higgins certainly could win tournaments)

Zay Flowers ($7,200 - a Baltimore passing game stack feels suboptimal but would wreck the field if this ends up not being a King Henry spot)

Trey McBride ($6,500), Brock Bowers ($6,700), Tucker Kraft ($6,000)

Tier 2 -- Preferred Tournament Options
Brock Bowers ($6,700), Jake Ferguson ($6,100), David Njoku ($5,400), Tucker Kraft ($6,000)
