I’ll be posting NFL DraftKings picks here. I cannot post lineups anymore, but I will list some players I like each week.
I can no longer post any lineups, per DraftKings rules. I will be trying something different this year, which is to rank my order of preferences by position taking price into account.

- Packers, $3,600 (at Giants)
- Falcons, $3,500 (vs. Panthers)

- Chargers, $2,800 (at Jaguars)
- Vikings, $3,000 (vs. Bears)
Players to Avoid: Kyren Williams (6900), Keenan Allen (5300). The Seahawks are the best team in the NFL when it comes to stopping the run. Keenan Allen is playing about half the snaps.
Top Captains: Drake Maye (18000). You don’t always want to play the chalk at captain, but Drake Maye has a terrific matchup against the pathetic Jets.
Top Spend-Up FLEX (in addition to Top Captains): Breece Hall (10200). Breece Hall will continue to be the Jets’ lone, viable weapon. He’s game-flow proof, as he’ll run if ahead and catch plenty of passes if behind.
Top Value: Mack Hollins (5800), Hunter Henry (5400), Mason Taylor (4000). I like both of Maye’s top weapons. I don’t know how it happens, but Mack Hollins has somehow become his preferred receiver with Kayshon Boutte sidelined. Hunter Henry, meanwhile, has a great matchup. Mason Taylor also has a great matchup.
Top Punt Play: Kyle Williams (2000). Kyle Williams saw only two targets last week, but he made one of them count with a 72-yard reception.
Player to Avoid: Justin Fields (9400). The Patriots have a great pass rush, and there’s always a chance Justin Fields is benched.
