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 7 Sunday Night Showdown Picks
MVP: Michael Gallup ($12,000 FD)
The Eagles are terrible covering receivers and Amari Cooper might be a little less than 100%. Gallup is the least expensive Cowboy I like at MVP which gives you a little more salary to work with in your flex positions. The Eagles have given up the fourth most touchdowns through the air in the NFL this year. They are who I will be targeting in this game.
I think the Cowboys offense is going to be concentrated on getting the ball to three guys (Gallup, Cooper, Zeke). The Eagles have more options and the ball should be spread out more meaning it is less likely for one of them to get as much opportunity as the Cowboys offensive core. I will have at least three of the four (Dak included) Cowboys in all of my lineups. If you pick both receivers, you definitely want Dak with them.
Pivots: Cooper, Dak, Zeke (in that order)
NFL DFS Flex Options:
Listed in order of preference with prices factored it
- Cooper ($13,500 FD) I will have some with Gallup, but mostly just picking one wide receiver
- Dak ($15,500 FD) – Attacking Eagles pass D
- Zeke ($14,500 FD)
- Alshon Jeffrey ($13,00 FD) I like Jeffrey in primetime games. He is there best receiver and will get first look
- Carson Wentz ($15,000 FD)
- Zach Ertz ($11,000 FD) I like the price for Ertz. If it isn’t him, it should be Jeffrey
- Jordan Howard ($10,000 FD) I still think he is the lead back over Sanders
- Miles Sander ($9,500 FD) As a pivot off of Howard, I do not want them both on the same team.
- Nelson Agholor ($8,000 FD) He was on the trade block this week. Maybe a little more motivation to show him off? Or he wants to prove his team wrong? Sometimes he shows up, sometimes he doesn’t. I’ll take a shot at 8K.
- Jason Witten ($8,500 FD) He is reliable. He isn’t getting 100 yards but he will get a handful of targets, including the RedZone.
- Brett Maher ($9,000 FD) Cowboys Kicker
- Jake Elliot ($9,500 FD) Feels expensive for Kicker
Punts:
- Tavon Austin ($8,000 FD) Price feels too high, but he will have some plays designed for him
- Dallas Goedert ($7,000 FD) Eagles TE 2
- Blake Jarwin ($6, 000 FD) I like the price not he Cowboys TE2
ON DK you can always try your luck with a Defense. I like Cowboys D more tonight, but not very high on either. Still, I will take a few shots on them.

I think the Cowboys win this game through the air. I really like Dak over 289.5 passing yards. Carson Wentz is a tougher call however I believe he will be throwing a lot in the fourth quarter and just get over the 270.5 mark.
