In our Wednesday morning first look at the Week 6 Main Slate, we start by taking a big-picture view of the slate as a first step in our preparation process. The goal here is to give you some information-packed visualizations to quickly set the table for the much more in-depth breakdowns and player recommendations that will come later in the week. In addition, we want to start to identify the teams and players who are most likely to be popular so we can narrow our focus as soon as possible and start digging deeper into some of the players who stand out as potential top options.

Our Week 5 First Look will start out by looking at the lines and team totals. We are looking both at the best spots overall and which teams are projected to score more than they typically do. We are also going to identify the players that are popping out as top values in the early-week Footballguys consensus projections. Lastly, we will dig into some usage stats and how each player on the slate ranks in key metrics.
