Based on our expected Week 14 DFS game flow analysis and Week 14 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 14 Plays:
Quarterback
Kyler Murray – Make that back-to-back weeks that we have targeted Kyler Murray, and it’s because both setups were solid for him. Granted, he wasn’t as explosive as we would have liked one week ago, but he still delivered a performance right around his season average. That’s a nice reminder that Murray’s floor is generally quite high. In a rematch against a Seahawks team that kept him out of the endzone both through-the-air and on-the-ground, he is looking to rebound and get the Arizona Cardinals back in the win column for the first time in roughly one month. Even if Murray fails in that endeavor, he should be primed to deliver a solid fantasy output.
Byrce Young – When it comes to targeting fantasy players for a lineup, one of the ironies is that we don’t need to shy away from quarterbacks in games that seem difficult for the team to win. It’s strictly a game flow setup, and it’s one we follow quite often. Simply put, if the Carolina Panthers fall behind — and it seems like there is a high probability that will happen — then the volume for quarterback Bryce Young will naturally increase as he tries to lead his team to a comeback. The alternative is that Young simply started the game well and continued for the majority of the contest. That’s also a reasonable expectation with him having improved of late — he has increased his DraftKings score in four consecutive weeks and hit a high watermark of 23.62 on Sunday.
