Week 17 Daily Fantasy Picks

Daily fantasy week 17

QB

Russell Wilson - Great matchup vs. the 49ers.

Kirk Cousins - If they win they should make the playoffs and I expect the Giants to rest some starters.

RB

Jordan Howard - Minnesota defense hasn't looked good lately.

Bilal Powell - With Forte still hurt Powell should get a lot of touches.

David Johnson - High priced but he is going to be fed the ball like crazy so that he can join some elite company with 1,000 yards rushing and 1,000 yards receiving in the same season.

WR

Doug Baldwin - Riding the hot hand against the porous 49er defense.

Golden Tate - Plays in the most meaningful game of the day and it could turn into a shootout.

Steve Smith Sr. - 89% chance it will be his last game in the NFL and I think Flacco will try to feed him the ball.

Amari Cooper - I know this sounds crazy given that Denver has an amazing pass defense and Carr is out. However, McGloin has a strong history of delivering the ball well to big WRs like Cooper and Raiders O-line can neutralize the Denver pass rush.

TE

Travis Kelce - He is underpriced on draftkings. He should be heavily owned.

Delanie Walker - I think Cassel will be forced to check it down to his TE a lot in this game.

Antonio Gates - He is 2 TDs away from breaking the record for most career TDs by a tight end. Philip Rivers will do all he can to make sure his guy gets the record on Sunday.

DEF

Seattle Seahawks - I don't think the 49ers will put up much of a fight in this matchup.

Kansas City - Need to win to have a chance for a first round bye. Plus you get the opportunity for some big plays on special teams from Tyreke Hill.

Philadelphia - Like the Amari Cooper pick, this also sounds crazy given that Philadelphia has been hit or miss and the Dallas offense is one of the best in the league. However, the Cowboys will be playing their 2nd string players and the Eagles have 4 extra days of rest. They are also at home where they play well and looked great last week.
