FanDuel, DraftKings CFB DFS Picks: Daily Fantasy College Football Advice for 10/26/19

Week 9 college football DFS lineups, sleepers and value picks for the early slate on FanDuel and DraftKings on October 26th. Target these NCAA players in CFB daily fantasy tournaments and cash games.

Welcome to week 9 of the college football season! This main slate sure is a fun one, as we once again have Oklahoma and LSU on the same slate. Those two powerhouse offenses are both expected to score a ton and it'll be tough to pick between the two. Let's dive in headfirst and find the best plays on this slate!

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for the main slate of games on FanDuel and DraftKings on 10/26/19. The lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays.

It's an extremely fun slate ahead of us, with more than enough offense to go around. I'll be breaking down the later slate in a different article, so make sure to keep an eye out for that as well. Let's dive into some of the top plays at each position. You can follow me on Twitter @VarneyDFS. I will be around all day to answer questions.

FanDuel, DraftKings DFS Quarterbacks

Brock Purdy - Iowa State - FanDuel $10,000 / DraftKings $7,700

You can play Jalen Hurts, but you don’t need me to tell you that. He has a pretty tough match-up, however, and I could see him having a rough day through the air. It’s about time we recognize what Brock Purdy has been doing this season. Through six games, Purdy has averaged 317 yards per game with 12 passing touchdowns and six rushing scores. He’s run for 75+ yards twice already, so the versatility isn’t in question. He’s facing the worst defense on this slate in Oklahoma State, who can’t stop anyone and is now going on the road to face a powerhouse offense. Iowa State is going to put up close to 40 points and it’s hard to see anything less than three combined touchdowns out of Purdy. This slate doesn’t offer up much in terms of high totals, so we’ll be scratching and clawing a bit more than usual here.

Max Duggan - TCU - FanDuel $7,500 / DraftKings $5,800

We’ve been picking on the Texas pass defense all year long and it hasn’t failed us yet. Max Duggan had a bit of a coming out party last week, at least on the ground, running for over 100 yards for the first time in his career. It was against a tough Kansas State defense, too, which makes it all the more impressive. Duggan is extremely cheap on both sites and he allows you to pay up elsewhere. He’s going to be my most popular S-Flex on the board as there are some running backs we need to prioritize.

Also Consider - Trevor Lawrence, Tommy DeVito, Jalen Hurts

 

FanDuel, DraftKings DFS Running Backs

Cam Akers - Florida State - FanDuel $9,800 / DraftKings $7,500

We have another dream match-up on our hands for the steady Cam Akers. If we just pull out the games that we’ve recommended him in, he has 37.9, 37.3, and 50.8 fantasy points. Clemson is the only team he put up less than 17 FP’s against and predictably so. FSU is a 10-point favorite over Syracuse, who has allowed 145 yards per game on the ground. It’s also the second-highest total on the slate at 59, implying FSU puts up around 35. Akers is going to see another 25 touches and I’d be shocked to see him under 25 fantasy points. Feeding Akers will once again be the gameplan for FSU.

Cam'Ron Harris - Miami - FD $6,500 DK $4,800

DeeJay Dallas traveled with the team, but he hasn’t practiced yet this week. He was injured in the first quarter last week and Cam Harris ended up getting 18 carries for 136 yards. He also caught three balls for 31 yards and a touchdown. If Dallas is out, this is a guy that’s going to be tough to keep out of your lineup. His price is so friendly and the volume is guaranteed in a solid match-up. If we get confirmation that Dallas is out, Harris becomes one of the top points] per dollar plays on the slate and you should look into filling out your flex spot with a running back.

Also Consider - Breece Hall, Kennedy Brooks

 

FanDuel, DraftKings DFS Wide Receivers

Tylan Wallace - Oklahoma State - FanDuel $8,900 / DraftKings $7,200

If you have the funds to pay up and have already locked Trishton Jackson in there, Tylan Wallace is a guy with a massive upside this weekend. For one, Oklahoma State is a 10-point underdog, so it’s a pretty safe bet that they’ll be throwing all second half. Iowa State also isn’t great against the pass, allowing 300+ yards three times this season. Wallace is going to get double-digit targets and he’s always a touch away from the end zone. He’s one of the more dangerous receivers in the nation with the ball in his hands and I’ll have my fair share of exposure in GPP’s,

Trishton Jackson - Syracuse - FanDuel $8,700 / DraftKings $6,900

I’m fully expecting him to return to that 25+ fantasy point mark that we’ve seen him at in three of the last five games. Tommy DeVito hones in on Jackson a ton and this is going to be the first clean pocket he’s had in a few weeks. Jackson is going to see 10+ targets and I could see a multiple touchdown game with ease. Syracuse is going to be throwing all second-half and Jackson is both the deep threat and screen guy. His price is too low and I’ll have him everywhere.

Jalen Reagor - TCU - FanDuel $5,500 / DraftKings $7,200

If we’re talking about a price being too low, Jalen Reagor is just $5,500 on DraftKings. If you’re unfamiliar, Reagor is one of the top NFL WR prospects in the upcoming draft. He’s battled a few injuries to start this season, but looks fully healthy with two big games in a row. He now draws one of the best match-ups in the nation in the Texas Longhorns. They just allowed 367 yards to Austin Kendall and West Virginia, who are certainly worse than TCU. Reagor is going to be the focal point of this offense and I fully expect 10-15 touches at a minimum. The price is just far too low and he’s a guy I’m locking into every lineup. There’s no way he finishes this game healthy and under 15 fantasy points.

Also Consider - Deshaunte Jones, Jerry Jeudy, Anthony Schwartz
