For a primer on how to play and for expert tips from CollegeFootballGeek's Todd DeVries, listen to The Audible here.
STEWART MANDEL'S LINEUP
--QB: Lamar Jackson, Louisville, $6,100: The dual-threat frosh looked good last week against a better defense.
--QB: Chad Kelly, Ole Miss, $7,700: He’ll play longer and put up big numbers against Fresno’s defense.
--RB: Kenyan Drake, Alabama, $6,300: Derrick Henry is too expensive and Drake will see plenty of action.
--RB: Sony Michel, Georgia, $5,000: Michel is much more affordable than Nick Chubb and could score touchdowns.
--WR: Leonte Carroo, Rutgers, $6,700: Rutgers-Washington State figures to be high-scoring and Carroo is a go-to receiver.
--WR: Dom Williams, Washington State, $5,000: You never know which Wazzu receiver will get the most catches but he’s cheap.
--WR: Jake Butt, Michigan, $4,400: It appeared in the Utah game that Michigan’s tight end may be its top pass-catcher.
--FLEX: Josh Adams, Notre Dame, $4,500: The freshman scored two TDs against Texas and may be a bargain.
--FLEX: Curtis Samuel, Ohio State, $4,200: Ohio State’s starters, like Ezekiel Elliott, will have a short day against Hawaii.
TOTAL: $49,900
BRUCE FELDMAN'S LINEUP
QB: Malik Zaire, Notre Dame, $7,300: Josh Rosen torched UVA last week. Now it’s Zaire’s turn, with even better receivers than the Bruins’.
QB: Phillip Ely, Toledo, $4,900: Toledo is down its top two RBs, and the ’Bama transfer is solid and won’t be rattled about playing in an SEC stadium.
RB: Paul James, Rutgers, $5,800: The productive ball-carrier got warmed up last week and now faces a shaky Washington State run D that gave up way too many yards vs. Portland State.
RB: Josh Adams, Notre Dame $4,500: The ND staff is high on the freshman and he’ll do damage as the Irish roll.
WR: Braxton Miller, Ohio State , $6,300: Urban Meyer will keep showcasing his most explosive weapon.
WR: Gabe Marks, Washington State, $6,400: Mike Leach’s most competitive receiver, Marks should thrive against a depleted RU secondary.
WR: Dom Williams, Washington State, $5,000: WSU’s top big-play man figures to hit a couple of long plays on the Scarlet Knights.
FLEX: Jake Butt, Michigan, $4,400: Oregon State has a lot of holes on its D and Butt comes up big for QB Jake Rudock, building confidence.
FLEX: Michael Thomas, Ohio State, $5,200: A great red zone weapon for the Buckeyes, he should feast on Hawaii.
TOTAL: $49,800
