Here’s a breakdown of one-game DFS contests for the Week 8 Thursday Night Football matchup featuring the Washington Redskins at Minnesota Vikings at 8:20 p.m. ET on FOX and NFL Network.
Cash Game Strategy
Dalvin Cook has the top median projection in our DraftKings Showdown Models. He fits on DraftKings along with Kirk Cousins, Case Keenum, Vikings DST (projected to score the same amount of fantasy points as Keenum) and Wendell Smallwood (safer than Adrian Peterson with AP playing through a high-ankle sprain) if you punt the last spot with Steven Sims (3 catches last week) or Kelvin Harmon (steps in if Sims can’t go).
On FanDuel, one fewer roster spot makes it more important to optimize, so the best bet is Cook-Cousins-Stefon Diggs (projected for three more points than Keenum)-Peterson-Smallwood.
