This article features three Skill Position Players that are under the radar that can win you your week! For DFS purposes, these plays will be specifically targeted in GPPs/Tournaments only and shall be used for that purpose.
Overall Record: 17-28
D’Andre Swift – RB – Philadelphia Eagles vs. Arizona Cardinals
$6,500 DraftKings / $7,600 FanDuel
Swift has had the bulk of the rushing attempts from within the 10 in the last two weeks for this Eagles team as the regular season comes to a close. He has ran extremely unlucky and has gone down at the one yard line four times, leaving the door open for the Brotherly Shove. The ‘going down at the one’ has been a talking point for Eagles players this week and now they get to face their old DC as the Cardinals HC in Week 17. A Cardinals team that allows THE MOST fantasy points to the RB spot (30.8 PPR per game) as well as 0.9 average rushing TDs given up per game. Swift gets back in the end zone this weekend.
Player Prop: 0.5 Rush + Receiving TDs – OVER (PrizePicks)
Chris Godwin – WR – Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. New Orleans Saints
$6,100 DraftKings / $6,700 FanDuel
Before Week 14, Godwin had 0 games over 100 air yards. Since then, he has averaged 114 air yards per game. The Bucs are on the verge of a playoff birth and can clinch with a win this week against division rival New Orleans. Baker Mayfield is running hot and is on the verge of some interesting contract incentives, expect him to sling it around .
Player Prop: 55.5 Receiving Yards – OVER (PrizePicks)
Isaiah Likely – TE – Baltimore Ravens Green Bay Packers vs. Miami Dolphins
$4,600 DraftKings / $6,000 FanDuel
Zay Flowers appears to be a true game-time decision with his lower leg injury, our partners at Sports Injury Central have him with a 60 SIC score (possible not to play, high chance to reinjure). Miami gives up 51.5 receiving yards to the TE position and Likely has cleared this number in 4 of his last 5 games. If Zay misses or is hampered, expect Likely’s 16.4% target share to grow exponentially. Get this number before news breaks and the number rises.
Player Prop: 42.5 Receiving Yards – OVER (PrizePicks)
Have a fantastic Week 17!
