Welcome to the Example Lineups for the NFL Week 16 Saturday DFS slate!

First and foremost, today is about having some fun. As I said in the Playbook write-up, playing cash games on a short slate is not recommended. There is far too much overlap which raises the paylines and if you're concerned at all about the lineup trains you are seeing in 50/50s in recent weeks, just imagine what it all looks like when you only have three games from which to choose. I stick to GPP tournaments and the single-entry at that. I'll play some 3-entry max tournaments on Draft Kings, but that's about it. Will I throw one of my lineups into a large-field multi-entry GPP? Probably. But I am staying well within my usual budget each week and would rather invest more heavily in Sunday's main slate than in today's contests. So keep that in mind. You still have a whole other slate to play this weekend.

OK, enough lecturing. 

Let's take a look at a few lineup examples for today's three-game slate. Remember, these lineups are not meant for you to just pull and play as your own. They should be a comparison tool for your own lineups.

Final Note: I know everyone is rolling out lineups that are loaded with the TB/HOU game, so while I will follow suit, I'm going to lean more towards a contrarian look and maybe load up on that LAR/SF game a little. I'm even going to add Raheem Mostert in there just to stay on the other side of the fence for at least one of my lineups on each site. Maybe I'm just setting money on fire here, but again, this is a fun day. Tomorrow is the big one!
