NFL DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Week 14 (Monday Night Football)
What is your favorite correlation on the slate and why?
Notorious: Jordan Love + Jayden Reed – I love Tua Tagovailoa and Tyreek Hill as much as everyone else, but that stack doesn’t leave you with much on the salary front. I often find myself deciding between the two Dolphins when building lineups, and in that scenario, I side with Tyreek. This Green Bay stack certainly helps you afford some of the expensive pieces on the Dolphins. Love has topped 23 fantasy points in 3 straight games, and Reed should see a higher target share with Christian Watson out.
squirrelpatrol: Tua Tagovailoa + Tyreek Hill – This isn’t rocket science, but so many of my lineups will be starting with this combination that it’s hard to call anything else my “favorite correlation.” The Titans have given up the 10th-most passing yards per game and the 9th-most receving yards per catch, and Tyreek Hill is Tyreek Hill. We have 2 RB spots, 3 WR spots, a TE spot, and a Flex spot, so there are plenty of opportunities to get different elsewhere while still playing the stack with the best chances of hitting.
Krayton: Jordan Love + Jayden Reed – The upside for Love and his cheap pass catchers is there, as Love has gone for over 23 DK points in each of his last 3 games. With Aaron Jones not expected to suit up, Love will be looking to pass, as he has had between 32-40 passing attempts in each of his last 4 games. I like the value receivers on the GB side too, which will allow me to still get Tyreek Hill and De’Von Achane in my lineup.
ebeimfohr: Tyreek Hill + Tyjae Spears – While the Packers look appealing at their prices without Christian Watson, it’s pretty clear the Dolphins pass game (particularly Tyreek) is in the slam dunk spot of the night against a pass-funnel Titans defense. So if the Dolphins are as successful as the field expects tonight, led by Tyreek, Tyjae is the most exploitable way to take advantage of that. He is their passing-down back and would see elevated usage in a game script that has them trailing at very low ownership.
Stevietpfl: Jordan Love + Jayden Reed + Saquon Barkley – I’m going to take a stand on Love over Tua Tagovailoa. By playing Love with his pass catchers, I’ll be able to load up on the Miami skill players. Tua hasn’t been running this season, and even with this offense, his upside has been capped. With Christian Watson out, I’ll be loading up on Reed, Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, and Tucker Kraft. They’re all cheap, and the Giants defense is 26th in overall DVOA. Barkley is game script proof and should lead the Giants in touches. With a small slate, running back is a weak position, so I want to spend up for Barkley as much as possible.
eys819: Jordan Love + Jayden Reed + Dontayvion Wicks – This is a very affordable double stack that allows me to spend up elsewhere in my lineups. Love has played much better of late, scoring at least 20 fantasy points in each of his last 3 games. Reed has been heavily involved in the offense all season, but his role has grown lately and now Christian Watson is sidelined again. He is 2nd on the team in target share (16.7%) over the last 3 games when Love has played well and even has 5 rushing attempts. Wicks has also seen his role grow over the past several games, with at least 4 targets in each of his last 5 games. He should step into an even bigger role with Watson out.
Bobby Gomes: Tua Tagovailoa + Tyreek Hill – This one is relatively easy, as arguably the best offense in the league takes on a struggling Titans secondary. The Dolphins are the highest projected team on the slate, and Hill is the highest projected player on the slate. It should be noted that Jaylen Waddle will make a hell of a pivot off of Hill if we have the stones to fade.
