The massive popularity of small DFS slates has propelled us to expand our DFS coverage. I will give you my favorite lineup for the Primetime Slate each week. We will release these as soon as both sites release their pricing.

FD Lineup: QB Josh Allen ($9.2k), RB Derrick Henry ($8.4k), RB David Montgomery ($7.4k), WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba ($6.2k), WR Jameson Williams ($6.1k), WR Khalil Shakir ($6.0k), TE Dalton Kincaid ($6.1k), FLEX Zach Charbonnet ($7.0k), DST Miami Dolphins ($3.5k)
Jared Goff would be my preference as a pivot QB. I don’t mind Lamar Jackson, but the price is higher than I prefer if pivoting. If Tyler Huntley starts, he can be a nice punt option, and he boosts the value of his weapons.
If Kenneth Walker III (oblique) remains out, roll with Zach Charbonnet. Otherwise, flip to James Cook, and save money at TE or at WR. Use either Detroit Lions back as an alternative. Skip the backs in the Tennessee Titans at the Miami Dolphins game.
Amon-Ra St. Brown has a good matchup, but I cannot afford him unless I pivot from Allen to Goff or Geno Smith. Jameson Williams, Calvin Ridley, Zay Flowers, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba all deserve consideration at WR2. You can also consider Jaylen Waddle, but only if Huntley starts at QB. Curtis Samuel, Nelson Agholor, and Rashod Bateman are the only replacement options for WR3.
If Sam LaPorta (ankle) misses this game, Brock Wright should be a set-it-and-forget-it play. Josh Whyle, Jonnu Smith, Dawson Knox, and Noah Fant can each be used at TE or FLEX.
