DraftKings Super Bowl Showdown picks: D/ST

Considering that the offenses are the storylines coming into this one, it’s hard to feel confident having either the Buccaneers ($2,800) or the Chiefs ($2,600) in your lineup. However, with Kansas City starting a makeshift offensive line in the game, you could possibly talk yourself into the Tampa Bay D/ST coming up with several sacks and perhaps a turnover with the pressure they might be able to generate.

DraftKings Super Bowl Showdown picks: Kicker

In what is expected to be such a high-scoring game, there could be some value in the kickers as both Harrison Butker ($4,000) of the Chiefs and Ryan Succop ($3,800) of the Buccaneers are reasonably priced. If you think they move the ball well, they could come up with plenty of points in this Super Bowl matchup.

This is definitely a stars and scrubs approach to the DraftKings Super Bowl Showdown but I like this lineup for tournament plays. You need both quarterbacks in your lineup in my opinion and we get high-upside pass-catchers with some dart throws mixed in. There is enough contrarian nature to the lineup to where you should be able to make some cash.
