DraftKings NFL picks Week 2: Defense/Special Teams

The Rams ($4,500) aren’t necessarily worth paying up for in my opinion in Week 2 as they just don’t offer the upside against a capable Colts offense. I do like the Buccaneers ($4,100) quite a bit as they have the ability to shut down a Falcons attack that looked downright bad a week ago, the same of which is true for the Broncos ($3,800) against the Jaguars.

For me, the Browns ($3,500) are the best value against a Texans team that was above their head last week. And if you’re looking to go super cheap, I don’t hate the Bengals ($2,900) against Andy Dalton and the Bears.

Best DraftKings NFL Lineup for Week 2

  • QB: Dak Prescott, $6,800
  • RB: Nick Chubb, $7,800
  • RB: Austin Ekeler, $7,300
  • WR: CeeDee Lamb, $6,400
  • WR: DeVonta Smith, $5,400
  • WR: Cedrick Wilson, $3,100
  • TE: Jared Cook, $3,900
  • FLEX: Robert Woods, $5,700
  • DST: Browns, $3,500

We’re going heavy on the Cowboys-Chargers game simply because that looks like the one with the most potential for DraftKings scoring. Stacking Prescott with Lamb and Wilson and then bringing it back with Ekeler and Cook is the right play for me as those options all offer big target shares in relation to their price.

As for the rest of the lineup, the upside of Chubb, Smith and Woods and great matchups has me excited for their boom potential on Sunday.
