IND @ DEN THURSDAY NIGHT SHOWDOWN BREAKDOWN
NFL DFS
Week 5 is already upon us, this season is flying by. Tonight we have the Indianapolis Colts heading to Mile High to take on Russell Wilson and the Denver Broncos. The Broncos are currently 3.5-point home favorites, in a game featuring a 42-point total. The Colts will be without Jonathan Taylor tonight, while the Broncos, unfortunately, lost Javonte Williams for the season due to injury. This slate sets up with a lot of value plays, making for a fun showdown build. As always, below you will find my top plays of the night, my favorite value plays, some tournament leverage ideas, my favorite cheap plays, as well as some roster construction ideas to get you started. Best of luck to everyone as always.

TOP PLAYS:
RUSSELL WILSON. SALARY: $10,400. PROJ: 18.42
“Let’s Ride!”… Russ was finally “cooking” last week, completing 17 of 25 passes for 237 yards and 2 TDs, while also rushing 4 times for 29 yards and a score. At $10,400 Russ is tonight’s overall top play, and a cash game lock. The loss of Javonte could lead to more pass attempts in this offense, especially on a short week.
