Let's put both days in the win column
The Wild Card Weekend was a Jekyll and Hyde weekend.
On Saturday, my cash lineup finished with 141.58 points to reach the green, and my 4 GPP lineups also cashed.
Now on Sunday, the Pittsburgh-Buffalo game getting moved to Monday threw me off. My cash lineup didn’t even hit 75 points as it finished with 73.18 points, and my GPP lineups failed to cash as I lacked players from the Green Bay-Dallas game.
At least we have two more weekends to enjoy some full roster NFL DFS.

Onto to the Divisional Round top plays
My Top Plays
Saturday Quarterback
Lamar Jackson, Baltimore ($7,900): The weather is going to be cold for this game, but the leading MVP candidate should have his way vs. the Texans.
Jackson played well down the stretch, averaging 29.25 DraftKings points in his last four games.
Sunday Quarterback
Baker Mayfield, Tampa Bay ($6,000): I’m going cheap at QB on Sunday to be able to use the top WRs on the slate.
Mayfield was impressive last week vs. a bad Philadelphia pass defense, throwing for 337 yards and three touchdowns. The Lions pass defense is just as bad as the Eagles.
My Top Play
Saturday Running Back
Christian McCaffrey, San Francisco ($8,800): CMC hasn’t been this cheap on DK since Week 12 when he was priced at $8,500.
Since Week 12, he has averaged 26.9 DK points a week, which includes the 13.1 points he scored vs. Washington before getting injured.
Sunday Running Back
Isiah Pacheco, Kansas City ($6,400): Pacheco has been the focal point of the Chiefs offense for most of the second half of the season.
He averaged 20.0 DK in his final six games when he was healthy.
My Top Play
Saturday Wide Receiver
Zay Flowers, Baltimore ($6,000): Flowers also become a focal point of the Ravens’ pass offense during the final stretch of the season.
He saw 28 targets in his last four games and averaged 16.63 DK points in those four games.
Sunday Wide Receiver
Amon-Ra St. Brown, Detroit ($8,200): St. Brown is the highest priced WR on either slate for the weekend and for good reason.
Since the Lions’ Week 9 bye, St. Brown has seen 8 or more targets in every game but one. He has averaged 96 yards receiving and added 69 receptions during that stretch.
My Top Play
Saturday Tight End
George Kittle, San Francisco ($5,200): This season Kittle and 49ers have played against two teams in the bottom 10 of DK points allowed to TEs – Cincinnati and Tampa Bay.
He averaged 24.9 points in those two matchups, and now faces a Green Bay defense that just allowed 37.3 points to Jake Ferguson last week vs. Dallas.
Sunday Tight End
Dawson Knox, Buffalo ($3,000): He doesn’t see the targets like Dalton Kincaid, but there is one thing that is needed to do well in playoff DFS – score touchdowns.
That’s one thing Knox knows what to do during the playoffs. He has scored 6 TDs in 9 postseason games.
My Top Play
Saturday DST
Baltimore ($3,500) home against Houston
Sunday DST
Buffalo ($2,800) home against Kansas City
