Sterling's DFS Fantastic 5 2023 NFL Divisional Round
Check Out Sterling's DFS Fantastic 5 for the NFL Divisional Round for the 2023 NFL Playoffs
Baker Mayfield - $6,000 - In three of his last five games, he has thrown for over 300 yards and 2 or more touchdowns. Now he gets to go into a dome and face the 30th ranked passing defense. The Lions defense has allowed quarterbacks to throw for 323 yards or more in their last four games while allowing each to throw 2 touchdowns. Baker will be my favorite QB to build around this weekend.
Devin Singletary - $5,700 - With CMC being the obvious play at running back, I wanted to give you my favorite pay down option at the position. Singletary has 3 games this season that he has rushed for over 100 yards, and he has scored in 2 of those. He played 85% of the snaps in last week's wildcard game. Now he gets to face a team that has allowed five 100-yard rushers in their last 8 games.
Mike Evans - $7,200 - If we're building around Baker, who's the best stacking option? For me its Mike Evans. The Lions have struggled against big and physical receivers this season and they don't get much bigger than the 6'5 231lb Mike Evans. He has the most targets, yards, and redzone looks on the team and it shows with his 13 touchdowns on the season.
Rashad Bateman - $4,000 - Bateman will be my favorite value play on the slate. He has averaged 5 targets a game and most of those games have been in neutral or run heavy type game scripts for the Ravens. I think the Texans can keep this game close which should force the Ravens into throwing more. The Texans have been cooked by outside receivers this season, which is where Bateman lines up 90% of the time.
Isaiah Likely - $4,700 - We've seen Likely Step into the Mark Andrew's role pretty well over the last few weeks. Since week 12 he has averaged 5 targets and 58 yards a game while catching 5 touchdowns over the past five weeks. Now he gets to face a defense that is allowing 8 targets and 57 yards a game to tight ends.
