The NFL's final week of the regular season, Week 18, is upon us, presenting a crucial opportunity for Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) players. With several teams resting key starters, value players emerge as essential picks for FanDuel lineups.
Michael Carter of the Arizona Cardinals is a prime candidate, stepping into a prominent role with injuries sidelining both James Conner and Trey Benson. Carter's recent performance, including 13 carries for 70 yards, showcases his potential to capitalize on increased opportunities. Similarly, Blake Corum of the Los Angeles Rams is expected to see significant action against the Seattle Seahawks, who have struggled defensively against the run.
Stacking players from high-stakes matchups, such as Jared Goff and Amon-Ra St. Brown from the Detroit Lions facing the Minnesota Vikings, could yield substantial returns. Both teams are vying for playoff positioning, making their offensive outputs critical. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, needing a win against the New Orleans Saints to secure the NFC South, also present strong stacking options with Baker Mayfield and Mike Evans.
