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 and the mechanics of it, make sure you listen to our DFS Cash Overview episode. On the Fantasy Footballers DFS & Betting Podcast, Betz and myself will dive into a couple of these but this article is intended for DFS Pass subscribers to get the full lay of the land.
On Saturdays, I narrow this pool of cash players to our DFS Best Plays, arguably the most valuable article in the DFS Pass.
Quarterbacks
Baker Mayfield vs. LV- $8100
Last week was tough and Baker has slowed down over the last month with just one top-12 performance since Week 9. He is still the QB4 in fantasy points per game and is on pace for 35 passing TDs.

The Raiders defense ranks bottom-10 in EPA per pass attempt, schedule-adjusted fantasy points allowed, and completions allowed per game.
