Week 5 main slate, game by game, lowest shootout score to highest — and we save the best for last. We're not here to grind cash. We're chasing the milly: guys who can 4x+ their salary and win you a tournament. Full war-room breakdown of the player pool, punt plays, and the smash spots.

🎯 The Build: Ceiling over everything. 60 guys in the pool today → we trim to ~35 Friday.

🏈 Guys I'm Attacking

QB: Jayden Daniels ($6.0K), Aaron Rodgers ($5.3K), Jared Goff, Brock Purdy, Sam Darnold, Jordan Love ($5.7K), Tyson Bagent ($4.7K)
RB: Jahmyr Gibbs, Jaylen Warren ($6.7K), Cam Skattebo ($6.0K), Chase Brown, Ollie Gordon ($5.3K), Emanuel Wilson ($5.3K), Jeremiyah Love ($6.1K), D'Andre Swift (if Monangai sits), CMC
WR: Amon-Ra St. Brown, Malik Nabers ($6.3K), Michael Wilson ($4.4K), DK Metcalf ($5.4K), Stefon Diggs ($5.5K), JSN, Luther Burden ($4.9K), Rome Odunze ($4.7K), Dante Pettis-type punts (Myers $3.5K, Tinsley $3.3K)
TE: Trey McBride, Sam LaPorta, Brock Bowers ($7.0K), George Kittle + the punt army → Chig Okonkwo ($3.3K), Greg Dulcich ($3.1K), Mike Gesicki ($4.1K), Kenyon Sadiq ($3.8K), Hunter Henry ($3.7K)
DST: Texans ($3.4K — best matchup of the week), Broncos ($3.2K), Jets ($2.7K), Chargers ($2.3K), Bears ($2.9K), Vikings ($3.1K)

🔥 Key Stands & Fades

🟢 Lions @ Cardinals = the game of the week. Shootout score 86 (next closest is 49). Two good offenses, two horrific defenses, both fast. Don't get cute — play the studs.
🟢 Jets DST vs Deshaun Watson: lowest ADOT in the league (6.09), 11 sacks in 4 games.
🟢 Texans DST vs Cam Ward: -.429 EPA/dropback under pressure, 11 throwaways.
🔴 Tyler Shough is a scam — league-high 45 att/game but 6.68 YPA; not cheap enough at $6.1K.
🔴 Chris Olave ($7.7K): great player, capped ceiling (22-22-22 in shootouts). Cash, not GPP.
🔴 Jeanty ($7.2K): 3.38 YPC, deeply negative rush EPA, zero 20+ runs. Getting Trent Richardson vibes.
🔴 Nico Collins / CJ Stroud: elite matchup, wrong game script — Houston sits on the lead.
⚠️ Watch the wires: Ja'Marr Chase & Tee Higgins likely OUT (CIN), Kyle Monangai thumb (CHI), Joe Alt questionable (LAC), McLaurin status (WAS), Rico Dowdle (PIT).
