NFL DFS: Monday Night Football DAL @ NYG
The Line: Giants -1 | O/U 38.5
We have a straightforward divisional matchup tonight. As the O/U says, we are expecting a low scoring, probably boring game.
Captain/MVP Picks
Saquon Barkley – RB, $17,700 (DK), $16,000 (FD)
I am not getting fancy tonight. Saquon is the Giants best player and the safest pick on the board. It what should be a slow burn of a game RB’s have the most potential.
Tony Pollard – RB, $12,300 (DK), $9,000 (FD)
Continuing with the RB plays at Captain, I am rolling with Pollard. So far this year he is in a 50/50 time share with Zeke, but is more active in the passing game. You also get a nice discount on the salary.
Also Consider: CeeDee Lamb
FLEX Picks
Cooper Rush – QB, $10,200 (DK), $13,500 (FD)
The Cowboys like to pass and Cooper Rush has the ability to spread the ball around. If you can afford it, pair him with CeeDee Lamb in the Flex, this is his favorite target.
Sterling Shepard – WR, $7,600 (DK), $11,500 (FD)
The Giants passing game is a mess, with Shepard being the only constant in the bunch. Any passing this team does tonight will be to Shepard or Barkley.
Value Picks
Both defenses are in play. I prefer Dallas D in most cases, but I would not be surprised by a Barkley/Giants D stack being optimal.
Kickers also provide some good value tonight, as we expect a low scoring game.
Other Thoughts:
Watch the injury report. If Dalton Shultz does not play, Jake Ferguson becomes the number 1 TE and is at the bare minimum salary.
