Wildcard weekend is here, and the DFSR team has you covered with all you need to know for FanDuel and DraftKings this weekend. James and Doug break each game down in terms of its relevant DFS plays and injury news, emphasizing the difference between playing the single day slates and the full weekend slates. Saturday's slate is a weird one that features a lot of tough defenses, and a truly bad DFS offense in the Patriots. At the end of the day it might come down to trying to find good playable options at every position rather than forming a typical "stars and scrubs" lineup we get used to during the regular season. Can you pay up for Derrick Henry? Which of the QB-WR pairs look the safest for cash games? Doug and James break it all down. Sunday's slate features more conventional great DFS plays, with the Saints' big two in Kamara and Thomas serving as headliners. It also has some nice cheap options availing themselves thanks to Chris Carson being ruled out and the Eagles dealing with a number of skill position injuries. You're going to have to monitor this situation very closely, though, because if you leave yourself in a position with questionable players leading into the 4:35pm game you could have very little flexibility in terms of making your swaps.

Buffalo Bills (2.5) vs. Houston Texans (-2.5) Both the Bills and Texans had the luxury of resting their starters for week 17, and both return with a (mostly) clean bill of health for their wild card clash. If this were a normal week of DFS this isn't likely a game we'd be targeting. The Bills ranked 6th in overall defense this season, and while Houston ranked 26th, the Bills haven't exactly been a team we've turned to for a lot of DFS value. On a two game slate, though? It will be impossible to not have a few plays from this game. Let's take a look and see what we can find. Houston Texans Deshaun Watson FD 8500 DK 6400 Opponent BUF Proj Points FD - 19.66 DK - 20.43 DeAndre Hopkins FD 8700 DK 7700 Opponent BUF Proj Points FD - 17.41 DK - 21.04 There is a path to playing the big pieces in the Houston passing game this week, but it is certainly going to require concessions at other positions. With Derrick Henry sitting alone atop the running back charts, though, you will want to spend up somewhere, and neither is a bad bet. Watson and Hopkins are the next two most expensive plays on the slate after Henry, and the big decision here is whether you want to run them against the Bills 6th ranked defense or run Henry against the Patriots and their top ranked defense. With a gun to my head I'd guess we don't wind up playing Watson because the savings you can get going down to Tannehill are too enticing, but that Hopkins winds up making the cut. Hopkins gets an extra boost from Will Fuller returning here, as defenses have been a lot more prone to shadowing him when Will Fuller was absent. Carlos Hyde FD 6400 DK 5100 Opponent BUF Proj Points FD - 10.45 DK - 10.76 Will Fuller FD 5600 DK 4900 Opponent BUF Proj Points FD - 10.82 DK - 13.03 The cheaper Texans. I'd guess Will Fuller winds up being close to a unanimous play this week simply because he's so darned cheap. This is a guy who has plenty of disappearances on his resume this season, but...

With a bunch of teams playing with questionable motivations this week, the bulk of this podcast is spent trying to find safe plays by figuring out which teams appear to be motivated to give their most relevant DFS options excess opportunity. The guys talk about how this practice will help them lean into plays like Michael Thomas, while not prioritizing plays like Julio Jones. They also discuss the difference between the scoreboard watching that's likely to take place in Kansas City, where the Chiefs can clinch a first round bye only if the Pats lose, or the scoreboard watching taking place in Dallas where they are playing for their whole season. All in all, things are shaping up to be fascinating for real life football purposes and for fantasy, so you aren't going to want to miss this podcast that gives you the full picture you'll need for week 17.

Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 17 We made it to week 17, y'all! After a fantastic week 16 here in DFSR land we're ready to bring the heat again this week, but it won't be easy. Week 17 always contains a slew of mixed motivations, odd game scripts, and bizarre spreads. That being said, let's do our best to find that value and safety. Want access to the projections that power these picks? For a limited time we're offering a free one week trial to all the sports that we cover - that's optimal lineups for NFL, NBA, NHL, and MLB - for the same low price. Get started now!

Quarterbacks Carson Wentz FD 7700 DK 6100 Opponent NYGProj Points FD - 21.48 DK - 22.27 Dak Prescott FD 8000 DK 6300 Opponent WASProj Points FD - 21.88 DK - 22.78 On a week with varying motivations around the league, we get a little lucky at quarterback in that there are a number of solid signal-callers with something to play for. We’ll start in the NFC East where the Eagles control their own destiny if they can wrap up a win over the Giants. Wentz has thrown for 300+ yards in three of the last four weeks with nine touchdowns to only one interception. He’ll get a Giants’ team ranked 30th in DVOA against the pass and this is a smash spot for really the whole Eagles’ team in terms of fantasy. Meanwhile, Dak is in a similar situation though things aren’t quite in his hands the same way they are for Wentz. With the Cowboys losing to the Eagles in Week 16 Dallas will need Philly to lose and DemBoys to win. That being said, there’s of course reason to believe Dallas goes all out. Prescott, after putting together an excellent statistical season, struggled last week against the Eagles. He was on his way to a very nice game against the Rams in Week 15 but the blowout got in the way. He’ll now get a Washington team ranked 20th in defensive DVOA and should have a solid floor considering the circumstances. He’s the fifth-best DraftKings points per game quarterback on the season and has the second-best consistency ranking among that group. I feel comfortable running both of these guys in cash though would probably defer to Wentz simply because there’s no doubt the Eagles keep their foot on the gas the whole game whereas there are scenarios this isn’t the case with Dallas. Robert Griffin III FD 7000 DK 5100 Opponent PITProj Points FD - 18.37 DK - 18.98 The Ravens are going to rest some...

With the best defenses largely playing on Saturday, there is a lot of opportunity for action on the main slate. With Jacobs ruled out, DeAndre Washington will be a highly owned play across all formats, and that also opens up a lot of salary for other positions. The guys discuss Christian McCaffrey's race for the all time yards from scrimmage record, Julio Jones' 20 target week, and how much we should trust the opportunity of good players from bad teams as we get toward the end of the season. With a marquee match-up between Dallas and Philly, a few well placed punts, and some excellent big money plays, this is shaping up to be an excellent week of NFL DFS.
