We didn’t set out to stack any team in particular, but we did find that some teams gave more potential plays than others. Our list is relatively short, despite the 13-game slate, and we set out to attack in select areas.
Based on our expected Week 13 DFS game flow analysis and Week 13 Games to Target published earlier, we can carry our thoughts into actual lineup positions. The long list of players that fit the requirements set forth by the projected flow of the game was cut dramatically by the requirements set forth by salaries.
Below are Sporfolio’s DFS Week 13 Plays:
Quarterback
Derek Carr – We simply love playing quarterbacks and wide receivers against the Kansas City Chiefs, and that will not change in Week 13. Derek Carr had been putting together one of his best seasons before a complete dud against the Jets, but everything about the bad game in New Jersey was circumstantial. The Jets had been playing better and took advantage of a team that clearly overlooked them. Now, Carr and company will play arguably the most important game of the season in a divisional rivalry that should see points from both sides of the matchup. It’s also worth noting that Kansas City shut down the Raiders in their first meeting, but it was during the period in which Oakland was still searching for the right approach to each game. Two weeks later, the Raiders went on a 5-3 run in which they scored at least 24 points six times. Oakland will be better prepared offensively on Sunday.
