MATCHUP SUMMARY
The Zach Wilson era begins where he looks to help the Jets improve on a 2-14 record from a year ago. If you haven’t been following preseason, there is quite a bit of hype around rookie Zach Wilson. He looks poised in the pocket and has already shown an ability to make big throws under pressure. Wilson had a few great connections with Corey Davis in preseason play and could be an intriguing connection to monitor early this season. When it comes to daily fantasy viability; I find it best to take a wait and see approach on the Jets rookie QB. Sure, Wilson could be the real deal but how many times have we heard this story in preseason play.
Sam Darnold begins his Panthers campaign in the most fitting ways of all; he gets to face his former team. There is far more pressure on Darnold here as many will use this as a benchmark to see how he fares against his old team. While with the Jets, Darnold showed big play ability at times but it seemed like he lacked the talent around him to get the job done. With Christian McCaffrey in the backfield; DJ Moore and Robby Anderson as the primary wideouts, there will be no lack of talent around Darnold. From a daily fantasy perspective, I have some interest in Sam Darnold + Christian McCaffrey stack builds. We know McCaffrey is at his best when he is snagging balls out of the backfield; this could be a great correlation to target as the Panthers are expected to score three to four touchdowns.
THE DFS GEMS
Christian McCaffrey, CAR – $9,500 on DraftKings. McCaffrey is a PPR monster and a viable target in cash games. With Sam Darnold being just $5,000 on DraftKings, I have moderate interest in pairing the two.
Corey Davis, NYJ – $4,900 on DraftKings. I expect the Jets will be playing from behind in this one. We should get a great glimpse at all the hype around Zach Wilson. In preseason, Corey Davis was one of his favorite targets. He feels a bit too cheap here.
