Posted by on Dec 22, 2017 in featured, News, Weekly Fantasy Football Picks | 0 comments

Daily Fantasy Football Top Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 16 - 12/24/17 Welcome back fantasy football fans. I don't blame you if you took the week off as the main slate falls on Christmas Eve where you will likely want to be spending time with your family playing Scrabble, Monopoly, or other popular board games but if you are like me you will have at least Redzone playing on your phone(don't tell my mom). There are also two games on Christmas Day this week so if you plan on eating a ton of Turkey and chilling on the couch, I would advise you to get in some Sunday-Monday slate action. There are some very intriguing matchups and a lot on the line this week so let's first take a look at some of the injuries that could affect our lineup construction. Antonio Brown - Out with a calf injury and may not play until the playoffs. Leonard Fournette - Practiced in full this week and is slated to return to the Jaguars backfield after dealing with a quad injury. DeAndre Hopkins - Was limited in Thursday's practice with the same toe injury but there is not much concern that he will miss the game as he played through it last week and came through once again. Ezekiel Elliott - Will make his return from suspension this week and get a nice matchup vs. a banged up Seahawks defense. Julio Jones - Was limited in Thursday's practice with an ankle and thumb injury after the expectation was he would be out of practice all week. This is a good sign in a huge division game vs. the Saints. Devante Adams - Has been ruled out as he is dealing with a concussion. This opens up extra targets for Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb but they face a tough matchup vs. the Vikings. Isaiah Crowell - Limited on Thursday dealing with a shoulder injury but the expectation is that he will play this week. He could see limited snaps opening some added touches for Duke Johnson. Travis Kelce - Didn't practice on Wednesday with an illness but is expected to play and the questionable tag could help with his ownership. Tevin Coleman - Has cleared the concussion protocol and will play this week. Joe Mixon - Practiced in full on Wednesday and Thursday and should return if he doesn't experience any setbacks before Sunday. Devin Funchess - Dealing with a shoulder injury and has yet to practice this week but has told the media he is "good to go". Play with caution as he was a non-factor last week with the same injury. Samaje Perine - Left Thursday's practice after suffering...

We've got you completely covered. Quarterback Cam Newton FD 8300 DK 6800 Opponent TB Proj Points FD - 22.47 DK - 23.28 I am pretty sure I'm doomed to guess wrong on Cam Newton in every game of his career, but will that stop me from headlining my first picks article of the season with him? Heck no. Cam's career has this wild trajectory where the Panthers went from turning him loose, to trying to protect him, to realizing he kinda sucks at passing when he's not running, to realizing that since he sucks at passing when he's not running it probably doesn't matter if he just runs a bunch come Hell or high water. So now we're getting this weird QB/RB hybrid where he is only good for 175-250 passing yards per game, but is also getting 11-14 carries per game. This is hard for my merely human brain to comprehend since it's so unusual, so please pardon me when I just trust the numbers here. The truth of the matter is that while the daily fantasy football sites weight rushing yards as more significant than passing yards, running QBs will always be a value even if they lack some consistency. I think I've seen enough out of Newton at this point, though. With 14 carries last week and 11 the week before that, it's clear that Carolina is happy to just jam the dude on the ground while they fish around for that #2 seed. This week he also gets the literal dream match-up: Tampa Bay has allowed the 5th highest yards per carry on the ground while also allowing the very most passing yards in the league. Easy game, boys. Cam all the way! (sorry in advance when he throws for 130 yards and 2 picks). Russell Wilson FD 9000 DK 7000 Opponent DAL Proj Points FD - 22 DK - 22.75 So I've called Cam a poor man's Wilson, but after watching...
