FanDuel NFL picks, Week 2: Best DFS fantasy football lineup
FanDuel Week 2 picks and lineup advice: Tight End
Without Travis Kelce, Mark Andrews, and T.J Hockenson, the tight end options are rather dry this week. For me this week tight end is simple, I am trying to get either Darren Waller ($7,000) or George Kittle ($6,700) in every single lineup.
Due to the mispricing of the wide receivers, you should be able to pay up for one of these two and still not have to sacrifice much at other positions. If you are unable to squeeze these guys into your lineup, I think Jared Cook ($5,400) is a perfectly fine option. He should see a solid amount of targets and has a good chance of finding the end zone in what should be a high scoring affair in Los Angeles.
FanDuel Week 2 picks and lineup advice: D/ST
While there are plenty of appealing options on the more expensive side this week, the Browns ($4,200) are another mispricing that I will likely be taking advantage of in nearly every single lineup. I still believe that the Texans are fielding one of the worst rosters in NFL history and will be exposed this week against the Browns.
If you need a cheaper option, I think the New York Jets ($3,400) are a sneaky play in what should be a low scoring affair. If Mac Jones makes a mistake or two the Jets defense can easily pay off its pricetag.
FanDuel Week2 DFS Lineup
- QB Justin Herbert – $7,600
- RB Nick Chubb – $8,400
- RB Najee Harris – $6,100
- WR Keenan Allen – $7,400
- WR Mike Evans – $6,700
- WR Cooper Kupp – $6,200
- TE Darren Waller – $7,000
- FLEX CeeDee Lamb – $6,800
- DEF New York Jets – $3,400
To be perfectly honest, this is the strongest DFS lineup I have seen in quite some time. However, it is important to remember that the strength of the lineup is not as important as how strong it is relative to the field’s lineups. Everyone else in the tournaments will have access to these exact players at these exact prices, so this is a good week to play a few popular plays and then get different in others.
With all that being said, you should feel confident in your ability to put a lineup full of studs out there this week. There are not many weeks where you can play four receivers with top ten upside and still pay up for the most expensive tight end. I did not even mention that you would still have four hundred dollars remaining after making this lineup. I am a huge believer of Herbert, but you have the option to slide Prescott into the lineup too if preferred.
Best of luck on your FanDuel NFL DFS endeavors in Week 2!
