Based on our expected Week 13 DFS game flow analysis and Week 13 DFS Overview 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
Kyler Murray – We have now used Kyler Murray quite regularly over the course of the season, but there’s no reason to stop for this week. He had a comparatively disappointing fantasy output last week, but he has rebounded from such outings in the following game every single time this year. Murray has yet to post back-to-back performances with scoring fewer than 15 DraftKings points in each. His salary is fair for what he brings to the table, and we are eagerly moving right back to him as his team heads into a big showdown with one of the best in the conference in the Minnesota Vikings.
Jayden Daniels – We wrote about using the aforementioned Murray often in his blurb, but we have done the same with Jayden Daniels. The key here is that the rating of the opposing defense — the Tennessee Titans — is so good that it might scare away some fantasy managers. Not us. We have seen Daniels deliver strong fantasy performances in nearly every situation — where the only times his numbers have been suppressed is when a running back takes away one of his touchdowns, but those options are actually limited on Sunday with Austin Ekeler already being ruled out for the contest. His salary is high, of course, but Daniels is coming off one of the best fantasy performances of the season for a quarterback — and that was in a wildly sloppy game.
