Top Three DFS Games to Target
Bengals vs. Steelers
- High game total (49.5 points); focused interest in stacking Bengals WRs and Steelers RB Jaylen Warren.
- Warren is emphasized as chalk due to volume and matchup.
- The Bengals’ weak pass rush makes Steelers stacks more attractive, but caution is advised with their spread-out TE usage.
Buccaneers vs. Bills
- Buffalo favored by 5.5; weather could play a role (cold and rain possible).
- Tampa Bay’s offense is narrow; WR Emeka Egbuka and RB Rachaad White stand out as value/volume plays.
- Josh Allen remains a volatile tournament ceiling option. James Cook offers leverage, though recent production is inconsistent.
Seahawks vs. Rams
- This is the week’s “must-stack” game for upside. Both team passing offenses present opportunities for GPPs.
- Key DFS targets: Jaxon Smith-Njigba , Puka Nacua, Rashid Shaheed, and multiple low-priced TE punts.
- Uncertainty due to frequent WR/TE rotations and variable game scripts.
Position-by-Position DFS Picks
- QB: J.J. McCarthy, Jacoby Brissett, and Justin Herbert highlighted for matchup and shootout potential.
- RB: Jaylen Warren, Josh Jacobs, Rico Dowdle, and RJ Harvey identified as strong upside or salary-based plays.
- WR: Ja’Marr Chase, Smith-Njigba, and budget options like Greg Dortch and Quentin Johnston recommended for tournaments.
- TE: Trey McBride is the slate’s favorite, with Dawson Knox and sub-$3,000 upside plays mentioned as pivots.
