As the fantasy football season concludes, many managers turn to Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) contests during the playoffs. Managers are challenged with selecting optimal players for their lineups, particularly tight ends like Sam LaPorta, Zach Ertz, and Dallas Goedert, who have shown promise recently.
Sam LaPorta has been a standout for the Detroit Lions, hitting double digits in PPR formats for six consecutive weeks and maintaining consistent target volume. This weekend, he faces the Washington Commanders, who have allowed significant fantasy points to tight ends in recent games. LaPorta is expected to be a strong pick.
Zach Ertz of the Arizona Cardinals has had a solid run, scoring well in several recent games. However, his matchup against the Lions presents challenges, as Detroit's defense has been tough on tight ends this season, making Ertz a riskier option in DFS contests.
Dallas Goedert, while often overshadowed by star players in the Philadelphia Eagles offense, has been effective lately with strong point totals. He faces a favorable matchup against the Los Angeles Rams, who have struggled to defend tight ends. Goedert's potential makes him an appealing and valuable option for DFS lineups this weekend.
