Top NFL DFS Picks for Week 12
Jonathan Taylor looks all the way back as he is now seeing clear cut RB1 usage in this Indy offense. We have yet to see a ton of explosive plays from him, but that will come, as his touch counts continue to be strong.
Travis Kelce is coming off an average 16-point DK showing, but the two weeks before that were complete duds by his standards. He now gets a beatable matchup against the Raiders with the Chiefs looking to get going after struggling offensively the past couple of weeks.
Tank Dell looks like a true WR1 stud, and he and CJ Stroud clearly have a strong connection. This Texans offense has been electric, and Dell has been a huge part of that. I like this game to have some nice shootout potential as well.
