This lineup to me is how DraftKings best lineups work. Find value in three or four spots and spend big everywhere else. The values of Jalen Richard, Sterling Shepherd, Willie Snead and Kyle Rudolph allows for the big spending on Ezekiel Elliott, Antonio Brown and Davante Adams. Snead was discussed above but gets a Buccaneers defense that has struggled to stop receivers. He’s caught at least five balls in every game with Lamar Jackson at quarterback.

The Cousins-Rudolph stack gets the safest combination of an offense that is expected to have a big weekend. Finally the Falcons defense will play an Arizona defense that looked lost last Sunday against the Lions. Atlanta may be banged up but they still have the talent to dominate the rookie quarterback who’s playing on the road.

Good luck Sunday!
