Mike's DraftKings daily fantasy college football lineup picks for Friday (11/1/24). His CFB DFS lineup picks and DFS sleepers will help you win.
How did this happen? How is it November already? We will kick off November with three college football games on a Friday. I can't think of any way that I would rather do it!
We begin in East Hartford with Georgia State taking on UConn. South Florida heads to Boca to take on FAU. We end in Boise with the Broncos -- the unofficial new kings of Friday night -- hosting San Diego State.
In this article, I will provide my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for DraftKings on 11/1/24, locking at 7 p.m. Eastern. I’ll provide multiple player suggestions for players at quarterback, running back, and wide receiver, aiming to highlight one option at the salary scale's high, middle, and lower end. Good luck, RotoBallers.
DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Quarterbacks
Maddux Madsen, Boise State ($7.1K)
If Byrum Brown is in the lineup for South Florida, I'm using him at the price. He would be the best play on the slate! However, DraftKings priced Brown like it doesn't expect him to play. The Vegas lines reflect that. That means we have to move on to the next best thing, which is Madsen.
Madsen is more consistent than most in this price range, but he's not the focal point of the offense and he doesn't have to be. Madsen hasn't turned the ball over since Week 5 with six passing touchdowns and one on the ground since then. We'll take that and 200 passing yards from him.
Bryce Archie, South Florida ($6.7K)

Archie is practicing with the first team this week, suggesting that he will start against Florida Atlantic. Archie had his best game against UAB. He also took all of the first-team reps in practice leading up to that game. Archie isn't as electric as Brown, but he can hold his own and is just as good of a passer.
Also consider: Zach Gibson, Georgia State ($6.8K); Cam Fancher, Florida Atlantic ($6.5K)

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Running Backs
Ashton Jeanty, Boise State ($11.7K)

Jeanty had an "off" week last week. He still scored 25.9 DraftKings points. Fade at your own risk.
Durell Robinson, Connecticut ($5K)
The freshman had a huge game against Rice with 132 yards on just 15 carries. UConn isn't going to overwork Robinson -- he is still splitting carries with Cam Edwards -- but he is easily doing more with his carries. I love Robinson at this price.
Also consider: Marquez Cooper, San Diego State ($7.7K); CJ Campbell Jr., Florida Atlantic ($6.2K)
DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Wide Receivers
Cam Camper, Boise State ($5.9K)
Camper wasn't a huge factor last week and his price still jumped $1K. I'm still inclined to pay that price. San Diego State's run defense isn't as strong as usual, but it's still good enough to contain Jeanty, as UNLV did. That should mean more targets for Camper and Co.
Jordan Napier, San Diego State ($5.2K)
Napier's line was salvaged last week when he threw a touchdown pass. The Aztecs will have to dip into the bag of tricks again if they have a prayer at beating Boise. That may or may not mean a touchdown pass for Napier, but a touchdown reception is a solid bet. The targets are there.
Ja'Shaun Poke, San Diego State ($4.7K)
Poke has 18 receptions on 22 targets for 140 yards in the last two games with Louis Brown IV out. Brown is likely to return tonight, but with Poke doing so much lately, I'm not sure Brown cuts into his targets that much. It would make sense for the Aztecs to ride Poke.
Also consider: Ted Hurst, Georgia State ($7.9K); Skyler Bell, Connecticut ($4.9K); TJ Sheffield, Connecticut ($4.2K)
DraftKings CFB Stacks
Connecticut
Nick Evers was awful against Rice last week, but this is a great spot for him and his receivers (Sheffield and Bell). Durell Robinson looks like the real deal as well.
Boise State
We can run a full Boise stack this week even with Jeanty's price. Maddux and Camper are affordable enough. I like adding Matt Lauter as well since many DFS players seem to forget about him.
Also consider: South Florida, Georgia State
