Thanksgiving Hot Sheet

nfl dfs thanksgiving picks

Cash Core

QB

  • Josh Allen (BUF) – Allen is the top projected QB on the slate by far

RB

  • Rhamondre Stevenson (NE) – Stevenson has at least 12.9 DK points in eight straight games thanks to his passing game role
  • Tony Pollard (DAL) – With Ezekiel Elliott not 100% and coming off a short week, Pollard will still be heavily involved with the Cowboys as a big home favorite in a favorable matchup

WR

  • CeeDee Lamb (DAL) – Lamb should bounce back with a very favorable individual matchup against the Giants in the slot
  • Amon-Ra St. Brown (DET) – St. Brown is right on the cusp of a big game and the Lions should be forced to pass often playing catchup against the Bills
  • Richie James (NYG) – James takes over the slot role in the Giants’ offense and is a cheap option who should get targets to help make your lineup work

TE

  • Dawson Knox (BUF) – This is a toss-up between Knox and Dalton Schultz, I leaned toward Knox since the salary savings seemed to make a difference

DST

  • Vikings (MIN) – Vikings as a home favorite against the Patriots who have been sacked a league-high 4.3 times per game over the last five weeks

GPP Plays

QB

  • Dak Prescott (DAL)
  • Kirk Cousins (MIN)
