Monday Night Football DFS – Value and Punt Plays
Some of the better punts in this matchup come with guys like Gus Edwards ($2,200) and the Rams DST ($2,800). Edwards has scored in two of his last three games played this season along with playing 40% of the team’s snaps and the Rams DST has allowed the fewest rushing yards per game to quarterbacks this season. Los Angeles has double-digit sacks in all but one game this season. Seth Roberts ($1,200) played the most snaps at the receiver position in Week 11 and led the team in routes run (21). Robert Woods ($7,000) looks to be available for this game, but if he is forced to miss or is inactive Josh Reynolds ($3,400) should instantly be forced into your lineups.
Monday Night Football DFS – Favorite Stack
The FanDuel Sportsbook has this game pinned at a 47.5 total with the Ravens at -3. So the most obvious builds are around Lamar Jackson ($13,600) who is going to be extremely difficult to fade. However, as I have stated above the Rams have been the best team versus mobile quarterbacks. Now they have not exactly played the cream of the crop from mobile quarterbacks, but still, it gives some merit to a potential pivot from Jackson. Still stacking Jackson and Ingram together gives you the best chance of hogging the majority of Baltimore touchdowns. You can then also add in the Ravens DST ($5,600) which has averaged 17.5 DraftKings points since Week 7. You can then add either Mark Andrews ($9,200) or Marquise Brown ($8,000) as a primary pass-catcher to stack with Jackson.
Monday Night Football DFS – Contrarian Plays
Using the Rams’ offense as a leverage play is the ultimate contrarian move. Rams’ onslaught is definitely chalky so using the Rams offensive players and fading Jackson would be the only way to get weird for tonight’s game. Jared Goff ($8,400) usually plays better at home and that comes with the return of Brandin Cooks ($6,600) who also plays better at home. So a Cooks-Goff stack is an interesting way to get contrarian in this game. Also, the training wheels look to be coming off the Todd Gurley ($8,800) so he is always in a spot where he can see heavy usage and outscore everybody else in this game. He was unleashed for a season-high 28 touches (previous high of 19) in Week 11.
