Jock MKT Starter Kit: NFL Picks | Cowboys vs. Buccaneers
To begin, enter the NFL Daily Market when the Initial Public Offering (IPO) phase is underway. Leading up until kickoff on the slate’s first game, bid on players you are interested in acquiring on the open market. Is there a player who you consider a favorite to finish at the top of the rankings? Invest as much or as little as you want in their fantasy performance, with shares beginning at $1 and ranging all the way up to $25. See potential injury news that could open an opportunity for another player to acquire fantasy points? Make speculative bids for shares of the backup, hoping for that news to break after the IPO phase is complete.
The next part of the game occurs during live trading. Unlike regular NFL DFS, where your plays are locked in, you can buy and sell shares of players while the games are happening based on their production and where you could see them finishing amongst the field. Track as current points, projected points, and live price for each player is updated in real-time, allowing you to track the action and invest in an instant to account for news. Trading can be done all the way up until the final whistle.
Each player share is paid out at the end of the games based on their final rankings of fantasy points amongst the field. If the shares you own are worth more than what you paid, you win money. For more information, check out the Jock MKT website.
Jock MKT NFL Picks for Thursday Night Football
Tom Brady — QB — Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Tonight will be the first game Tom Brady has played in front of a home Tampa crowd, and it is going to be electric. Awesemo projects Brady as the top overall scorer tonight. Remember, first place pays out $25 per share, second place is $20, and third is $16. It would be surprising to see Brady finish anything lower than third tonight.
The Cowboys defense is still very suspect despite adding some talented players this offseason. The secondary is one of the weakest position groups on the entire team. When the wide receiver corps consists of Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Antonio Brown, it is wise to pay up for the one player that connects all of their success. Awesemo values Brady at $17.81 tonight, which would be a $7.19 profit per share if he is the top overall scorer.
Amari Cooper — WR — Dallas Cowboys
With the Cowboys projected to be losing, one can expect Dak Prescott to be passing quite a bit tonight. However, people will pay up for Prescott due to him being a quarterback, and he has a range of outcomes too large to pay up for. As such, it is wise to look at his receivers. CeeDee Lamb will likely be targeted most out of this group, so and he has the most history with Prescott and has been undervalued this preseason.
Amari Cooper has proven to be successful with Prescott. During the five games last season that Prescott played, Cooper totaled 39 receptions on 55 targets for 424 yards and a touchdown. He will continue to be targeted often, and it only takes one play for him to shoot up the leaderboards. Awesemo projects Cooper’s value at $9.95, meaning he needs to finish fifth ($10) or better to return a profit.
Mike Evans — WR — Tampa Bay Buccaneers
If the Cowboys secondary is going to give up plays through the air, gamers should target the Buccaneers’ top pass catcher. Mike Evans is a go-to player for Brady both down the field and in the end zone. Tonight the Buccaneers are expected to score and score a lot. Last season Tampa’s play calling in the red zone was 88-63 in favor of the pass. Evans saw 18 red-zone targets, which was over 23% of the team’s target share in this area of the field. In other words, those who expect the Buccaneers to move the ball against Dallas should also like Evans tonight. Whether it is a big gain down the field or a fade on the goal line, Evans will be seeing plenty of valuable targets. He is one of the players that has the potential to outperform the quarterback tonight. Awesemo values Evans at $9.55 tonight, which means he needs to finish fifth ($10) or better to return a profit.
