NFL DFS Showdown Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Monday Night Football

What is your favorite way to differentiate from the field?

squirrelpatrol: I’ll go overweight Packers players, particularly Christian Watson, who should see his workload increase after recently returning from injury. Assuming Aaron Jones misses this game, I’ll end up overweight the Packers backfield as well – AJ Dillon as the primary back and even sprinkling in some Patrick Taylor and Emanuel Wilson (assuming he is active).

headChopper: In the limited entries I am playing, I’ll be using a roster spot on a sub $1k player and making sure I play Jordan Love and Josh Jacobs in every lineup.

kmurray03: I am taking a strong stand on Josh Jacobs over Davante Adams; this will mostly be evident in my lineups in the MVP/CPT spot. Jacobs won’t be contrarian by any means, so I will also consider playing Jakobi Meyers over Adams to get even more contrarian. But I do think that Adams will be so popular in this spot that it wilI help my lineups be a bit different. Additionally, it is much easier to fade Jimmy Garoppolo when you have Jacobs in the CPT rather than Adams.

Bobby Gomes: By not Captain’ing chalk Davante Adams. Although, I’ll be overweight Adams in the flex.
