Vegas lines are more than just a predictor of the final score of games. They also can be a secret weapon in Fantasy.

Before you start using them to crush your Fantasy week-to-week lineups, you'll want to hear what Fantasy analyst Jen Ryan has to say. A contributor at FootballDiehards.com and on SiriusXMFantay's "Football Diehards" show. Ryan, who has been an FSWA finalist for "Best Football Series," goes in-depth every week on SportsLine on using Vegas lines to make Fantasy decisions in both season-long and daily. 

One tip we'll give away this week: Ryan is extremely high on Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch in a matchup against his former team.

"We have a Marshawn Lynch ($5,300 on DraftKings, $6,500 on FanDuel) revenge game on our hands," Ryan said. "He is the second-highest priced player in this game behind his former quarterback Russell Wilson ($5,700 on DraftKings, $7,600 on FanDuel)... Only five players have more carries than him and eight have more rushing yards than him, and he currently sits as the RB16 in PPR scoring. Where Lynch is getting it done is in the red zone this season. His 15 red zone carries are fourth-highest in the league. All three of his touchdowns have come from within the 10-yard line. You can bank on Lynch to score this weekend, but I am banking on him to score twice."

Ryan has also identified a quarterback who has underperformed in 2018, but has major upside this week in what Vegas says will be a high-scoring matchup. This pick could help you cash in big time in Week 6. 

So how can you use Vegas lines to crush your Fantasy lineups this week? And which struggling quarterback should you stick with? ... Join SportsLine now to see Jen Ryan's guide on how odds and Fantasy can work together, all from a proven Fantasy and Vegas expert!
