Set a winning NFL DFS lineup for the divisional round by combining value in each roster slot and exploiting the best matchups, all within the confines of the salary cap. Every week, we evaluate all of your FanDuel options to identify the best values among the lower-priced options, as well as the matchups to play or avoid, so you can select the players who are worth their high cap hit. Value is determined by the number of FanDuel points you can expect for every dollar invested in putting that player in your lineup..A player rmay be an 'Average' or even a 'Good' value while also projected to outscore a player identified as a 'great value,' but when you consider the cap hit and the salary you can put towards other players, you may decide that the 'Great' value outweighs that projection.

Players considered to be a 'Great' value are those in the 90th percentile of projected value picks for the week. 'Good' plays are in the 75th percentile or better. 'Average' plays span the 25th to 74th percentiles, while 'Shaky' plays are in the 10th-24th percentiles. 'Poor' picks encompass single-digit percentiles. Only players projected to score 4 points or more are displayed.

On FanDuel we have to roster 9 players and stay within a $60,000 salary cap. Our roster consists of one quarterback, two running backs, three wide receivers, one tight end, one team defense and a flex position. Last Season FanDuel listened to their players and kicked out the kickers! They added the new flex position and we all loved it!

Best Plays for FanDuel's wild-card weekend slate

The end of the season is on the horizon, and it's time to make up for any losses with this week's FanDuel lineup.

The NFL schedule is coming to a close, with just two weeks left in the regular season, fantasy players are running out of time to make a profit on their FanDuel lineups. The great part about being a FanDuel player is it takes just one week to make enough money for the rest of the year.

This week is the last week where everyone is going to play their starters. There are a lot of teams who will likely have very little to play for next week (the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills come to mind). This is also a weird schedule this week, with Friday and Saturday games to go along with the usual Sunday night and Monday night games. That takes off some great offenses, like the New Orleans Saints, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Arizona Cardinals.

Speaking of Saints, losing Michael Thomas mid-week was a surprise that really hurt lineups. The same goes for the loss of Julio Jones. That's happened a lot this season, where star players who were expected to be available on Monday had no chance of making it to Sunday. Then, there are star players like Christian McCaffrey and George Kittle who were a long shot to make lineups, and once again they were on the sidelines.

There are still some juicy matchups to be had. The Chiefs are taking on the porous Atlanta Falcons secondary fresh off a blown lead to Tom Brady. The Cleveland Browns' punishing run game goes up against a no-longer-winless New York Jets team that is still terrible. Pittsburgh and Indianapolis go head to head in one of the best games of the week. The Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams go into next week's matchup both facing major question marks.

This will help make some stellar lineups this week which hopefully saves from the losses this season might have brought to your previous lineups.

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (10): Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports

Quarterback: Justin Herbert $8,200

The Los Angeles Chargers are looking ahead to 2021 with a 5-9 record and two games left on the schedule. Not much has gone right for the other team in the City of Angels, but one thing that has is rookie quarterback Justin Herbert.

Herbert went back to his high-scoring ways last week, putting up around 28 points against the Raiders on Thursday night. This was his second-best output of the season. It was his fourth rushing touchdown of the season and his first in more than a month.

It was good for Justin Herbert owners after two-straight weeks of lackluster play. Against the Patriots, Bills, and Falcons, he was unable to reach 18 points. It cratered against the Patriots, but it appears that was just a fluke bad performance.

Meanwhile, Herbert is taking on the Denver Broncos. They just allowed Josh Allen to put up more than 37 points last week. Now, they face Herbert with Keenan Allen one week healthier. Honestly, most Chargers are up for grabs in this matchup. Go for Herbert, Allen, and Austin Ekeler. Someone is going to break out, but it's most likely going to be the quarterback.

Other Options: Jalen Hurts $8,200, Deshaun Watson $8,500

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (22): Denny Medley-USA TODAY Sports

Running Back: Christian McCaffrey $10,000

Spending five figures on a player who's missed most of this season in Week 16? That would be preposterous in most other situations, but everyone else isn't Christian McCaffrey. He's played three weeks this season and he scored at least 20 points in every one of them. When he returned from injury last time, he scored 27 points against the Chiefs.

Matt Rhule has said he hopes to see McCaffrey practice on Wednesday, and if he does his outlook will be good for playing this week. At least this gives fantasy players an early look at whether the most important player of the week will be available.

McCaffrey suffered a shoulder injury in Week 9, but he's fully recovered from that. He suffered a thigh injury in practice, and that is what's been keeping him out for the past couple of weeks. He's returned from injury with a fire up his behind before and there's no reason to believe it won't happen again.

Running backs haven't been great against the Washington Football Team, but when McCaffrey is right, he is matchup proof. He can score 20 points against anyone. He excelled against The Bucs and Chiefs, two good rushing defenses. If he plays, he will do the same this weekend.

Houston Texans running back David Johnson (31): Trevor Ruszkowski-USA TODAY Sports

Running Back: David Johnson $6,700

Deshaun Watson is desperate to find anyone to throw the ball to. Last week, he tried getting Keke Coutee involved, but he fumbled on the goalline to lose the Texans the game. Brandin Cooks is still recovering from injury. Will Fuller is out on suspension for the season. So now, Watson is looking to his running back to make plays.

He threw the ball to Johnson 11 times last week, and he caught every single one. He had 106 yards receiving, which adds to his pretty paltry 27 yards rushing. The Texans are finding ways to get something out of their compensation for DeAndre Hopkins. Johnson came to the Texans to provide a threat on the ground and in the passing game. Now that every other option seems to be off the table, he's finally providing that.

Johnson is facing a terrible Cincinnati defense this week. The Bengals defense has allowed at least four receptions to running backs in four-straight games. Two weeks ago, they allowed over 100 yards receiving to Dolphins running backs.

Johnson would be a great play at this price. Ezekiel Elliott and Mike Davis are more expensive, and they've both been terrible as of late. Johnson at least has double-digit points in six of his last seven starts. He gets points for his fantasy players.

Other Options: Austin Ekeler $7,000, David Montgomery $7,800

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (11): Dale Zanine-USA TODAY Sports

Wide Receiver: Julio Jones $7,500

Listen, Julio Jones is still getting a price this high because of his name value. He's been dealing with injuries all season long, and it probably makes sense for the Falcons to just put him on IR and call it a season. Well, Jones doesn't want that to be an option and he's doing everything he can to get back on the field. He even took a PRP injection on his hamstring to get back on the field.

This seems a little desperate, no? Well, have you ever seen a desperate football player looking to ball out? Even when injured, even with nothing on the line, they put up monster numbers. Like McCaffrey, Jones' health needs to be top of mind throughout the week. If he's healthy, he's a must-start.

He's taking on the Chiefs this week. It was the same philosophy as last week with Michael Thomas before he was ruled out. However, the Falcons receivers outside of Jones are much better than the Saints outside of Thomas. Calvin Ridley and Russel Gage will take up much more focus from the secondary than Emmanuel Sanders and Tre'Quan Smith.

Jones has every motivation to show just how dominant he can be this week. Matt Ryan has every motivation to prove he's still the man in Atlanta. The coaching staff is trying to prove they deserve a chance to run this back. It's a risk, but there are risks worth taking on the slate this week.

Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (80) (Jeff Lange/Beacon Journal)

Wide Receiver: Jarvis Landry $6,500

On paper, it looks like the Cleveland Browns will focus on their running game against a paltry New York Jets team this week that's no longer in the top spot to get Trevor Lawrence in the NFL Draft. The Jets came out the winner, but the narrative around them is that of losers. The Browns only need to score a couple of touchdowns, and this one should be a wrap.

However, the Browns now have a legitimate head coach. Kevin Stefanski knows this is more than just an easy win. With the Browns so close to the postseason (a win ends a 17-year drought with no playoff appearances), he needs to put them in position to gain some confidence. They need to get the passing game going.

Baker Mayfield has looked a lot better as of late, and Jarvis Landry is right at the front of reasons why. He's had 15 points in three of the last four games. He got there against the Giants on Sunday Night Football thanks to a huge catch in the endzone. It kind of got forgotten thanks to a 'doink' by Browns kicker Cody Parkey, but that's hardly the point.

Landry is facing a Jets team that's allowed an average of a touchdown per game to wide receivers. When it's bad, it gets really bad (four touchdowns to wide receivers against the Chiefs, three to the Seahawks). Hopefully, that's the situation when the Jets take on the Browns, and Landry can put up two scores of his own.

Other Options: Calvin Ridley $8,700, Cooper Kupp $6,800

Wide Receiver: Darius Slayton $5,000

From one New Jersey team as an opponent to another one as a rooting interest. Darius Slayton has actually been the focal point of the passing game over the past few weeks. Slayton led the Giants with 74 yards last week, but what's most important from that was his nine targets. It shows that even with Sterling Shepard back in the lineup,

Colt McCoy is not the answer under center. That much is obvious, but Daniel Jones is hopefully back in the lineup. Head coach Joe Judge says he didn't like what he saw from Jones in practice, but he couldn't have liked the game with McCoy under center.

With Jones back under center, like he was two weeks ago, Slayton should get more targets. Those targets should turn into catches, yards, and hopefully touchdowns.

He is facing the Baltimore Ravens this week. They used to be really good against wide receivers, but they've fallen off as of late. They've allowed touchdowns to wide receivers for the past five weeks, including two against the Cowboys. If any receiver on the Giants is going to get a chance to score, it's the one that's getting the lion's share of the targets.

The price of Slayton is just so hard to pass up. He's being picked up in the same place as Dez Bryant, Braxton Berrios, and Quez Watkins (who admittedly had a good game last week). This is the best bet of the bunch by far.

Other Low-Cost Options: Darnell Mooney $5,400, Alshon Jeffery $5,300

Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas (82): Geoff Burke-USA TODAY Sports

Tight End: Logan Thomas $6,000

Most of this season, the tight end position has been a cesspool for fantasy owners all season. It's been Travis Kelce, and everyone else. Kelce is still available for $8,700, but there are better options that have become available. Mark Andrews has been really good since Lamar Jackson came back and the Ravens season went back to normal. Noah Fant just went nuts against the Buffalo Bills. Then, there's Logan Thomas.

Thomas was a monster for Dwayne Haskins last weekend. Haskins targeted him 15 times. Thomas came down with 13 catches for 101 yards. Somehow, he didn't score a touchdown on all those targets, but the law of averages says that eventually with all those targets he's going to score eventually.

The Carolina Panthers have allowed touchdowns to tight ends in two-straight matchups. The Panthers are a much different team as of late, and it could be the perfect time for the Washington offense to get right.

Haskins was finally getting into the groove last week. It took him a couple of drives, but now he's rolling like an actual good quarterback. Thomas is his security blanket, and that shouldn't change. Still, Terry McLaurin is a real threat, so they can't focus on Thomas too much. This will give him a chance to dominate again.

Other Options: Andrews $7,000, Kelce $8,700

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins (27): Mitch Stringer-USA TODAY Sports

FLEX Option: JK Dobbins $6,300

JK Dobbins is still not getting the respect he deserves in daily fantasy. He's scored a touchdown in four-straight contests. In each, he's scored between 13 and 18 points. He's right in the sweet spot where he's getting everything out of this offense that he can.

This week, he's taking on a New York Giants offense that's allowed a touchdown to a running back in five of the last six games. That sixth game was against the Bengals. Everything is pointing towards Dobbins getting another touchdown this week.

This should be a pretty easy matchup for the Ravens. The Giants have lost two straight after winning four in a row. Those two haven't been particularly close. This could lead to a lot of rushing from the Ravens offense.

Dobbins was always going to take the lead role for the Ravens this season. Mark Ingram and Gus Edwards held on longer than most expected, but Dobbins is the man with the most talent at this point in his career. He's the man in the Ravens' backfield, and the team should give him more and more carries as they get closer to the playoffs. The Ravens still need the Dolphins to lose a game to get into the playoffs and they need to beat the Giants and Bengals. Obviously, the Ravens have to hope for some help, but they need to take care of business themselves first. It starts with a dominant Dobbins.

Defense: Los Angeles Chargers $3,700

Nfl Lines Fanduel Cheat

If you're going to spend big on Christian McCaffrey, while still getting stars like Julio Jones and David Johnson, then that money has to come from somewhere. The defense is a perfect place to make up that score. The Los Angeles Chargers actually have a great matchup with the Denver Broncos in front of them.

Best Fanduel Lineup

Drew Lock has had a fumble or interception in nine-straight games. He's a turnover machine this season. He was never the answer for the Broncos, but they are going to give it a try once again this week.

With Herbert starting at quarterback, this is hitting both sides of the ball against the Broncos. They are coming off two-straight blowouts, so the hope is the Chargers can make it three straight. The Chargers defense hasn't been anything to go home about this season, but the talent is there. Joey Bosa has been waiting to explode. He could get three sacks this week alone going up against this offensive line.

Nfl Lines Fanduel Picks

Defenses have averaged more than 12 points per game against the Broncos. This is a great chance for the Chargers to break out.
