November 23, 2024
Maximize your lineups with top picks and value plays for Week 12. From slate-breaking stars to sneaky sleepers, these recommendations, backed by the DFS Hero Lineup Optimizer, will give you the edge in GPP contests. Let’s dive in!
Week 12 DraftKings DFS GPP Plays
Quarterback Plays
Jared Goff, Lions $6,600
The way to beat the Colts is through the air. He has outstanding weapons and can easily throw for 300 yards and 3 touchdowns.
Geno Smith, Seahawks $5,700
Geno is a little bit underpriced. He has the ability to throw for 300 yards and he isn’t afraid to run either. Look for 20 plus points.
Anthony Richardson, Colts $5,600
The Colts are going to have to throw the football against a very good Lion run defense. I think Ricardson throws for over 200 yards and 2 touchdowns, but he will be able to get big chunk plays on the ground. Many are looking at QB Jayden Daniels to break the slate, but I think Richardson has a better chance at this price.
Brandon Allen, 49ers $4,000 and Tommy DeVito, Giants $4,000
Two quarterbacks at min-price who should be throwing a ton. Allen has better weapons, but DeVito has the better matchup. I prefer DeVito at home but the
DFS Hero Optimizer prefers Allen.

- Brandon Allen, 49ers $4,000
- Anthony Richardson, Colts $5,600
Running Back Plays
De’Von Achane, Dolphins $7,500
Achane is almost a lock when priced below 8K. He can score from anywhere on the field and is my favorite RB pick to break 30 points.
James Conner, Cardinals $6,500
Conner is such a steady and underrated fantasy player. I think we can pen him in for 20 points. If you play the afternoon slate, then you lock him in for sure.
Kareem Hunt, Chiefs $5,700
Hunt has the best matchup on the board vs. a bad Carolina run defense. He should be priced well over 7K.
Brian Robinson Jr., Commanders $5,600
Robinson has the second-best matchup on the board and I think he runs right over the Cowboys for 25 fantasy points.

- James Conner, Cardinals $6,500
Wide Receiver Plays
Amon-Ra St. Browns, Lions $8,300
As mentioned, I think the Lions will throw the ball against the Colts and I am banking on St. Brown to score 20 plus points again this week.
Malik Nabers, Giants $7,400
The Buccaneers pass defense isn’t good at all and I like DeVito to target Nabers 10 plus times.
CeeDee Lamb, Cowboys $7,300
A big price drop for Lamb and I think that is a big mistake. He is still getting all the volume, and a TD here gets him into winning lineups.
Mike Evans, Buccaneers $7,000
It is a little risky to play a player who has missed as much time as Evans, but he is that good and is underpriced.
Courtland Sutton, Broncos $5,800
This is a basement price for Sutton as QB Bo Nix continues to excel. He didn’t catch a TD pass last week but I think Nix will go out of his way for Sutton to celebrate this week.
Michael Pittman, Colts $5,300
Pittman had 8 targets this week and I think Richardson realizes that he needs to get Pittman involved. Colts will be throwing a ton.
Noah Brown, Commanders $4,200
The Cowboy defense will give extra attention to WR Terry McLaurin and I think Brown will be sneaky to score.

- Jakobi Meyers, Raiders $5,100
- Courtland Sutton, Broncos $5,800
Tight End Plays
Travis Kelce, Chiefs $5,800
Kelce is my favorite spend up tight end. A soft matchup, plus Kelce has scored 20 plus in three out of his last 5 games.
Sam LaPorta, Lions $4,300
I think the Lions throw here and LaPorta has been forgotten. The
DFS Hero Optimizer has him projected under 5% owned and he can break the slate.
Luke Schoonmaker, Cowboys $2,500
A min priced punt play who should break value while you load up your lineup.
