Let's pray for no Sunday afternoon crashes this week, ok? I notice that pricing is a bit tougher on Draft Kings this week and that is a very good thing. It makes us work harder to find the best possible plays as well as the best lineup combinations possible. I really want Andrew Luck as my QB this week but when it all was said and done I just didn't feel great about any of my Luck lineups this week. I did throw a couple into some tournaments but the value players there are just plain bad.
I am using DeMarco Murray and Isaiah Crowell pretty much across the board as my RB combo. Murray is going to tear the Giants defense apart and Crowell may be splitting carries but he still will get 15+ touches and has an excellent chance at multiple TD's
The WR's are difficult this week. Steve Smith is in a bunch of my GPP lineups for a couple of reasons. He has that big play upside, is cheap and most people who play a Ravens WR this week will opt for Torrey Smith. Sammy Watkins is the guy that I now love however because of his matchup against the Jets and for the game now being played indoors at Ford Field in Detroit.
Here is the Sunday edition of the DFS NFL Playbook for Week 12:
