Week 12 DFS: Top Picks & Targets

Streamers - Week 7

Ben Muell

Quarterbacks…

  • Josh Allen, Bills v. Dolphins … pick on Miami.
  • Daniel Jones, Giants v. Cardinals… Arizona is giving up 296 passing yards, a completion percentage of 71%, and 2.67 touchdowns per game
  • Jacoby Brissett, Colts v. Texans … coming off the bye Brissett has scored at least 2 touchdowns in every game this season (besides the match up with the Chief which featured a run heavy attack). Plus Houston is allowing 289 yards per game (6th worst in the NFL)

Running Backs…

  • Jamaal Williams, Packers v. Raiders … With the potential for a positive game script, Williams, and Aaron Jones, should both see a number of carries
  • Chase Edmonds, Cardinals @ Giants … scored in two straight weeks

Wide Receivers…

  • Marquise Goodwin, 49ers v. Redskins … Washington has trouble with speedy receivers and Goodwin is as fast as they come
  • Auden Tate, Bengals v. Jaguars … Looked good in his debut against the Ravens leading Cincinnati in receiving
  • Jamison Crowder, Jets v. Patriots … offers a high weekly floor in PPR and is seeing a solid share of the Jets passing targets

Tight Ends…

  • Rhett Ellison, Giants v. Cardinals … If Evan Engram is sidelined with a knee injury, Ellison has a solid match up against Arizona who’s giving up over 99 yards and 7 catches per game to tight ends
  • Noah Fant, Broncos v. Chiefs … I’d love to stop pushing this guy but you have to play the match up and the Chiefs seem to ignore covering opposing tight ends
  • Luke Wilson, Seahawks v. Ravens … The (new) starting tight end for Russel Wilson is always worth a look. While the Ravens are stingy against tight ends they are giving up 13.3 yards per catch (6th worst in the NFL)

Defense…

  • Giants v. Cardinals … Beside the season opener, New York has tallied at least 3 sacks a game
  • Titans v. Chargers … Tennessee is allowing the 5th fewest points per game and the Chargers look overmatched against a similarly skilled Pittsburgh defense in Week 6
  • Lions v. Vikings … Detroit has been forcing a little over 2 turnovers per game but call this a bet against Kirk Cousins stringing together 3 quality games

Kickers…

  • Aldrick Rosas, Giants v. Cardinals
  • Brandon McManus, Broncos v. Chiefs
  • Matt Prater, Lions v. Vikings
