Early look possibilities (number of questionable players could effect things)
QB
McCown
Wilson
Hoyer

Probably go cheap with Hoyer and McCown being top plays
RB
Yeldon
McCoy
Hillman
Lacy
Allen
Coleman(if Freeman out)
Rawls
Again look like money can be saved here
WR
Hopkins
OBJ
Julio
Fitz
This is where I probably pay up this week
Cheapies
Stevie
Harris
Benjamin
TE
Celek
Reed
Walker
DT

Just checked my "play money" bank acct and noticed DK refunded my initial $50.00 deposit from October. I cashed out a portion of my winnings last week, wondering if that is a way they send a portion of the winnings? I opted for the "check" withdrawal, so I am a little confused. The credit was issued a day after i requested to cash out a portion of my winnings. Any ideas?

Blue I don't like just hasn't looked very good, Grimes has looked better. Allen is certainly a interesting cheap play. Will likely have some exposure to him.

That's how they pay out. Same thing happened to me. They put the initial number u bought in for back on your card and send a check for whatever you are getting after that

Could be wrong, but it looks like it's going to end up being a week where the chalk play is going to be value at QB/RB and then trying to fit in a pair of elite wide receivers.
Hard to say exactly what the smart plays at RB are going to end up being this early in the week because it will be heavily dependent upon injury news. But guys like Rawls, West or Ware, Allen, Yeldon, etc. could end up being real bargains. If you can keep your QB and RB selections to the bargain-priced guys, it opens your cap up to go big at WR.
At the top of the price list, Hopkins, Julio and Beckham all have pretty sweet matchups. Depending upon how the RB injuries shake out, I think it might end up being relatively painless to fit two of them in and hope they give you 30+ points each.
I'll be parsing the news to try to figure out what Seattle's strategy will be against Antonio Brown and Martavis Bryant. If they end up shadowing Brown with Sherman (like they did early in the game after AJ Green started torching them), that should open things up for Bryant to have a big day (like Marvin Jones did). Cary Williams vs. either of those wideouts is major mismatch. Depending upon what we hear (if anything), I'm pretty intrigued by Bryant as a WR3.
My first crack at a Sun-Mon. GPP lineup looks like this:
Hoyer
Yeldon
Ware
Julio
Hopkins
Martavis
Eifert
Rishard Matthews
Browns

Not sure how this week will end up currently up a little bit with a little bit of Clev DT, Allen, McCown, Benjamin, and Barnridge left. Have 20-25% exposure to each in cash. Hopefully end up with a winning week although doubtful it will be anything more than a small win.
Ended up basically break even. +2%

Ended up 42nd ($3500) for my best ever finish in the Millionare Maker GPP with this lineup:
Russell Wilson
Curtis Martin
Adrian Peterson
Doug Baldwin
Eric Decker
Stevie Johnson
Jordan Reed
Odell Beckham Jr.
Bengals
After that 80-yard Wilson to Baldwin touchdown, (A 23 point play for me, with both around 3% owned,) I went from 306th to 16th. After the game I was 18th, with zero PMR; After the SNF game, I was 21st. And I was still at 29 starting the 4th quarter of MNF, and 36th with 3 seconds to go, but that last TD cost me another $500.
Not that I'm complaining; I still beat out 99.98% of the people, and that lineup also got me another $1000 and $500 in a $3 and $2 contests. So yeah, $5,000 for 25 dollars in entry fees?
THANKS, FBG!

Pretty sure curtis martin got you a zeroCoolerheads said:

OOPS, sorry! LOL, Yeah, that was DOUG Martin, not Curtis. And he only got me 10.8, which was, by far, the worst player on my roster. Lots of second guessing when this happens: Swapped out so many other players in that spot, including Ware.
Lessons learned:
1.) Go big or go home. Wilson/Baldwin were owned by 3.3 and 2.7% of the field, but got me almost 80 points.
2.) Don't worry about the Salary cap. If I find a roster I really like and still have 1500 bucks left over, leave it alone.
3.) Don't type Curtis when you mean Doug.
