This is an overview of the two-game Monday Night Football slate on DraftKings. First position-by-position, with some notes at the end on how I am playing this slate.
General note for a two-game slate: The construction rules obviously don’t apply, but there are many similarities between two-game slates and Showdown slates. You can use some of the same tricks to avoid mega-duped lines, such as leaving salary on the table, playing a defense against your quarterback, game-stacking even more than usual, and finding low-owned players to mix into your lineups.
Quarterbacks
Josh Allen ($7,700) leads a Bills offense ranked 21st in pass rate over expectation (PROE). He’ll face a Falcons defense that has allowed the 3rd-fewest schedule-adjusted fantasy points per game (SAFPPG) to quarterbacks. Allen also has 212 rushing yards and 3 rushing touchdowns this season.
Jayden Daniels ($6,900) leads a Commanders offense ranked 11th in PROE. He’ll face a Bears defense that has allowed the 8th-most SAFPPG to quarterbacks. Daniels also has 124 rushing yards in 3 games.
Caleb Williams ($5,600) leads a Bears offense ranked 20th in PROE. He’ll face a Commanders defense that has allowed the 6th-most SAFPPG to quarterbacks. Williams has rushed for 110 yards and 1 rushing touchdown in 4 games.
Michael Penix ($5,000) leads a Falcons offense ranked 31st in PROE. He’ll face a Bills defense that has allowed the 9th-fewest SAFPPG to quarterbacks. Penix has 31 rushing yards and 1 rushing touchdown across 4 games.
