Two Locks, Zero Doubts: Building Your Week 1 DraftKings Cash Core
Cash games reward volume and floor, not fireworks — and Week 1 hands us a running back with a monopoly on his backfield and a tight end priced like a punt who's actually locked into a bell-cow receiving role. Build around these two, and the rest of your roster falls into place.
Cash isn't about chasing the highest ceiling on the slate. It's about identifying the plays whose floor is so high that a bad game still cashes and a good game wins your lineup outright. Week 1 gives us exactly two of those: a running back who might play every single snap, and a tight end whose price tag hasn't caught up to his role. Everything else on this board gets built around them.
