Happy New Year 3 Jack readers! Do you have some season-long fantasy football league prize money that you’re looking to parlay in a DraftKings contest? Or do you have some angry dollars burning a hole in your pocket after watching the playoffs from the sidelines because you drafted Jordy Nelson, LeVeon Bell, or Jamaal Charles? Well, Johnny G is here to help you with your DFS picks.
Week 17 always has a personality of its own year in year out. Some teams are resting starters (Redskins?) skewing team ranks. A handful of teams are fighting for a playoff berth boosting stats over season-long averages. Other teams have nothing left to lose making consistent fades put up random 5x value stat lines (looking at you Matty Ice).
It’s a tricky week but there are plenty of tantalizing stacks to close the regular season. We are going value on the RBs and focusing salary in the WR category.
I can’t spend my hard-earned money on Matt Ryan, but the Ryan/Jones stack will be popular. On the other sideline, Brees has a good matchup and will have multiple stacks with Sneed a cheap option, Cooks playing well of late and Hightower sure to have high ownership again this week.
Eli/ODB should be huge this week. ODB is coming off the suspension against a mess of a Philly team with no coach.
Note: if word comes in that Forte will have a lighter workload, I’m plugging in Jeremy Langford with no hesitation over Run DMC. He’s $1000 cheaper and a stud when he gets touches. Then we can take the extra money ($1000 + $400 left) and upgrade our D. There’s plenty of salary left to upgrade the defense AND get the Eli/ODB stack in the lineup. Decker is solid by himself, so the only decision is who to swap out for Beckham.
