I want to start off this article by saying you must have the absolute nuts to win the top prize up top on large field GPPs. There is no room for mistakes with so many entries in these contests. If you think you are going to win it all by playing a combo of the top seven guys in the player pool, you are not. If a combo of a bunch of guys you have heard of before is indeed the best scoring lineup, you will most likely tie for first. If that sounds good to you, then go for it. It will be profitable if you nail it, but for me, I like to be a little different on these slates. I will be making multiple teams and taking long shots on a few cheap guys.
Leaving cash on the table in these NFL DFS contests is fine too. This makes your lineup even more unique and lower owned because a lot of amateurs will be pulling their hair out to use their entire salary.
That all being said, I have looked at every possible player that can get on the field and listed my picks below.
The NFL DFS Week 12 Sunday Night Showdown Picks
MVP: Aaron Rodgers
I am going to play the best player on the field tonight at MVP. I know San Fran defense is legit but Rogers is going to show up for this game. I am playing the narrative on this NFL DFS showdown slate. Rodgers is from the Bay Area and great up a 49ers fan. He has all his weapons tonight and he tends to show up on nationally televised games.
Pivot 1: Jimmy Garoppollo: 49ers QB, the offense runs through him and he has looked sharp lately
Pivot 1: Devante Adams: It’s time for his breakout. As long as that nagging toe injury doesn’t get him off the field early, he should be in for a big NFL DFS night.
Pivot 3: Tevin Coleman: The 49ers should want to keep Rodgers off the field by running the ball. Coleman is the lead back.
Hunch MVP: Jamaal Williams: I think that Aaron Jones’s struggles tonight forces more dump offs to Williams.
Flex Options:
Emmanuel Sanders: I like him in prime time
Deebo Samuels: Consecutive 100-yard games. Should be heavily targeted here again
Aaron Jones: Green Bay lead back with a tough matchup
George Kittle: He is going to be back on the field but he is not 100%. Look for redone targets, but not as much yardage as we are used to seeing with a healthy Kittle
Raheem Mostert: 49ers RB2, but should be very involved in the run game to keep Rodgers off the field.
Ross Dwelley: I know Kittle is back, but Dwelley will still be in the game plan. I love what he has been doing lately and so does the San Fran offensive coordinator
Chase McLaughlin: 49ers Kicker
Mason Crosby: Green Bay Kicker
Kendrick Bourne: He has three touchdowns the past three games. We can’t ignore that. Jimmy G likes to spread it around.
Jimmy Graham: He has the toughest mat up on the board against the number one defense against the TE
Geronimo Allison: If anything happens to Adams, Green Bay receivers are going to have to step up
Marques Valdez-Scantling: Two goose eggs in a row is pretty bad. He should have low ownership because of these. I will take a few punts on him
Allen Lazard: Never really does much, but he is starting. Worth a couple darts if you are making multiple lines. Price is right
Listed in order of preference, with price factored in.
I did my research on FanDuel today.
