Top NFL DFS Picks for Week 18
CeeDee Lamb brings an awesome floor and ceiling combo each and every week, and now he gets a matchup against one of the worst defenses in the league in the Washington Commanders. The Cowboys will still be gunning for this game as well, as they are still fighting for the division championship.
Jordan Mason could find himself with a nice opportunity here as the 49ers will likely rest most of their starters, including Christian McCaffrey. Since the 49ers have the number one spot clinched, they are likely to turn to Jordan Mason here, who projects as an awesome value play.
Davante Adams went off last week for two TDs and now finds himself in a matchup against the Broncos who rank 26th in Pass DVOA. The Raiders have a 20.5 implied team total here, and Adams figures to continue to have massive involvement in the offense.
