BALLER MOVE: Consider in H2Hs, Double-Ups, Single-Entry and Three-Max GPPs
DFS Price Tag: $4,700 (DraftKings); $5,900 (FanDuel)
ANALYSIS: It was a vintage performance from Brandin Cooks in Week 10. For the first time this season, the 30-year-old veteran looked like his former superstar self, going off for his best game since joining the Dallas Cowboys.

Cooks carved up the New York Giants, reeling in nine of 10 targets for 173 yards and a touchdown in Dallas' Week 10 blowout victory. It marked season highs for him in both receptions and yards, while it was his third TD in the 'Boys last four games.
On the heels of his best outing of the season, the veteran draws another excellent matchup against the Carolina Panthers in Week 11. The Panthers are allowing a chunky 8.26 yards per target to opposing wideouts. If the Cowboys continue the pass-heavy attack they've deployed in recent weeks, Cooks should, well, cook in this matchup. His sub-$5K price tag on the DraftKings main slate makes him a desirable, high-upside salary saver.
