In order to create the perfect daily fantasy football lineup, you need to save money to spend money. This week, however, a lot of the DFS bargains are players with tremendous upside that you would want to play regardless of price tag.

In other words, enjoy. This is a fun week to find bargains.

Quarterbacks

Kirk Cousins, Washington Redskins (vs. Cleveland)
FanDuel: $7,600 (13^th among QBs, tied)
DraftKings: $6,500 (10th)
Yahoo: $38 (third)

If Ryan Tannehill can throw for more than 300 yards against the Browns, it seems likely Kirk Cousins will do the same. Cousins’ season started with some bumps, but last week he completed 21 of his 31 aimed throws for 296 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. Tannehill threw two interceptions and fumbled the ball last week versus the Browns and still ended the week as a top-10 option. Cousins simply must be considered due to this matchup. Top-10 potential without a top-10 price tag in FanDuel, barely one in DraftKings (he’s not anything you’d call a bargain in Yahoo, but the matchup is still good).
