NFL FanDuel Picks For Playoffs Week 2
We here at Fantasy CPR will work very hard and do everything that we can to bring you articles to prepare you and help you be successful with your bids and games at FanDuel and DraftKings just as we have with MLB and NBA. I always recommend that you do plenty of homework on your own as well as reading our articles. You will also want to make sure that you have access to your FanDuel lineup prior to kickoff in case a player is a last-minute inactive players.
Here are my NFL FanDuel picks for playoffs week 2:
Next: Quarterback and Running Backs
Quarterback:
QB – Cam Newton – For my money there is no hotter QB or any one else I would prefer to hav at the helm for my daily fantasy league this week. Newton has been magnificent and has taken a huge step in his career this year. I am excited to see how well he plays when the season is on the line and am expecting a big week out of him this week.
Running Backs:
RB – Jonathan Stewart – I am usually a bit hesitant to go with a QB and a RB from the same team. However, when the amount of teams is limited sometimes you have to make an exception to your normal rules. I am starting Stewart with a ton of confidence and believing that he will find theend zone at least once.
RB – Ronnie Hillman – Hillman finished the season on a high note with over 19 fantasy points and looks to be poised to carry the load for the Broncos moving forward. He could split time fairly evenly with C. J. Anderson, but I expect the Broncos to use a heavy dose of the ground game with the aging Peyton Manning under center.
Next: Wide Receivers
Wide Receivers:
WR – Demaryius Thomas – Thomas had a great game to finish the regular season as well and he looks to be moving into the playoffs with a lot of confidence despite which QB is under center. Thomas is a professional and has a great rapport with both QBs and should be a great play regardless of who is playing.
WR – John Brown – Brown has been a little off in the weeks leading up to the playoffs. However, I am expecting the Cardinals to get him involved early and often and I look for this young man to shine.
WR – Doug Baldwin – Baldwin has also been mildly mediocre in the past few weeks. However he had some huge weeks as the regular season was winding down. From around week eight through week 12 he was dropping roughly 20 fantasy points a game. I am looking for that kind of upside this week.
Next: Tight End, Kicker and Defense
Tight End:
TE – Travis Kelce – Kelce was huge for the Chiefs last week as Alex Smith went to him early and often. He finished the game with eight catches for 128 yards and should be big for the Chiefs again this week.
DEF – Denver Broncos – The Denver Broncos have been playing extremely well on the defensive side of the ball. Fantasy wise they have not been extremely great over the past few weeks, but they get the Steelers this week who should be without Ben Roethlisberger.
K – Graham Gano – Once again I am of the impression that we should ban all kickers from fantasy football. However, since not many people seem to agree with me right now I will roll with Graham Gano this week.
