We have two weeks left of full rosters in DFS on both sites. This article, paired with the must-start players article, will help to get you above the cash game pay line on DraftKings for the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs. This article will look at the top value option at the running back and wide receiver position and give you the top tight end selection to use on DraftKings for this week in DFS. Let’s start by taking a look at one of my favorite values at any position this week.
Gus Edwards Produces Massive Value on DraftKings
The Baltimore Ravens are 9.5-point favorites against the Tennessee Titans in Saturday’s playoff game. Mark Ingram is questionable for the game as well. I expect the Ravens to be in full control of this game from the start. I also don’t expect Ingram to get a full workload or to be needed much against the Titans in this game. As a result, Gus Edwards will produce massive value for this week’s slate.
Allen Lazard Continues Emergence
Allen Lazard finished the regular season as one of the top targets in the passing game for the Packers. Lazard averaged over 8.5 targets in the final two games for the Packers. However, given the smaller slate, I still think he will be one of the better plays this week. The Seahawks ranks 26th in passing yards allowed per game and 21st in yards allowed per pass. I look for the passing game to be a significant factor this week for the Packers, and I’m taking Lazard at his low price on DraftKings.
George Kittle Top Tight End this week on DraftKings
Unlike last week’s slate, there are a few big-name tight ends for the divisional round. Travis Kelce isn’t 100% this week, which is why I’m more inclined to use Kittle in cash games this week. On DraftKings, Kittle comes in at $200 cheaper than Kelce as well. The Chiefs will be going up against the Texans in this game. The Texans are allowing the 4th most passing yards per game this season and the 9th most yards per attempt. Kittle is one of the most involved tight ends in the passing game in the NFL. I look for Kittle to top out as the top tight end this week in DFS.
