NFL Week 18 Saturday Slate

Welcome to Week 18’s Saturday slate of the NFL season. Both games on the slate have playoff implications. The Browns however are dead on arrival. The purpose of this article is to give a quick cheat sheet at how I will be building my DFS lineups.

The QBs:

• Joe Burrow
• Russell Wilson

I have to assume Lamar Jackson will not get a full game here with the spread being -20.

The RBs:

• Khalil Herbert: We of course need confirmation about if Chase Brown will play. If he is out, Herbert is the top option.
• Jaylen Warren/Najee Harris: These are the same guy to me. It appears more are flocking to Warren in GPP, so going over the field on Harris is something I am considering against a poor Bengals rush defense.
• Derrick Henry: He won’t be paying a full game, but he will be scoring.

Others to consider

• D’Onta Foreman: He should serve as the Browns lead back. He is cheap but will be in a terrible offense. He may have a better shot to score if the Ravens pull their defensive starters which isn’t a guarantee.
• Keaton Mitchell should fill in for as the Ravens primary back when Henry is off the field.

The WRs:

• Ja’Marr Chase: Lock
• George Pickens
• Tee Higgins: He is currently questionable, Andrei Iosivas would step into a larger role if Higgins were ruled out
• Rashad Bateman
• Zay Flowers

Value:

• Calvin Austin
• Mike Williams
• Elijah Moore
• Michael Woods ( if he is out Jamari Thrash, James Proche and Kaden Davis would get a bump in playing time at min price)

The TEs

• Pat Freiermuth: I play tight ends against the Bengals
• Darnell Washington

Defense

• Ravens

CORE:

• Joe Burrow
• Khalil Herbert if Chase Brown is out
• Ja’Marr Chase
• Steelers TE
• Ravens D
