As the Divisional Weekend approaches, four high-stakes matchups are set to capture NFL fans' attention. With both offenses and defenses from these games ranking in the top six in DVOA, the excitement is palpable. Analysts highlight key wide receiver and cornerback matchups that could yield significant returns in daily fantasy sports (DFS), especially with two games projected to exceed 51 total points.
Terry McLaurin of the Washington Commanders, priced at $6.3k on DraftKings, stands out against the Lions. After a stellar season with rookie QB Jayden Daniels, he has been a consistent performer with multiple double-digit fantasy point games. His matchup against Detroit, featuring a 55-point over/under, positions him as a strong DFS candidate.
Meanwhile, Kansas City Chiefs rookie Xavier Worthy, costing $5.2k on DraftKings, will face off against Derek Stingley of the Texans. Worthy, key to the Chiefs' passing attack led by Patrick Mahomes, has recently shown impressive form, scoring consistently and posting high fantasy points. The Texans' struggles in passing defense could further amplify Worthy's potential this weekend.
Another intriguing option is Keon Coleman from the Buffalo Bills, priced at $4.1k on DraftKings. He has emerged as a significant player for the Bills, particularly against a Ravens defense that favors man coverage. With a solid target rate and the possibility of making big plays, Coleman presents a value opportunity for fantasy lineups.
