Here’s the NFL daily fantasy football lineup to play in week 12
It’s week 12 in the NFL. Here’s the NFL daily fantasy football lineup to play to win on Sunday, November 24, 2019.
Hey, y’all. Another fantasy football lineup for you.
As always, my emphasis is primarily cash games, with an eye on getting into the money in tournaments. These plays are primarily valued for their high floors and low risk, although some of them have a chance to go off for big games.
I always play my own lineups. I will be playing this lineup, among others featuring a lot of the same players, on Sunday. This lineup is optimized for DraftKings’ salary in the main Sunday slate. Don’t bet what you can’t afford to lose.

Okay, let’s do this.
QB | Matt Ryan, vs. Tampa Bay, $6,700
Ryan is a high-volume passer taking on a bad pass defense. He’s one of the most expensive quarterbacks on the slate, but it seems really unlikely for him not to make value. You can also plug in Drew Brees in this spot if you want to stack with Michael Thomas and Alvin Kamara.
RB | Bo Scarbrough, @ Washington, $4,200
Scarbrough played well as the feature back immediately after signing with Detroit last week, and figures to get even more carries and a *ton* of touchdown equity in a matchup the Lions *should* win pretty easily against Washington. Also, if he isn’t involved in the passing game, this is great value.
RB | Alvin Kamara, vs. Carolina, $8,200
The Panthers give up the third-most points to running backs. Most of those are on the ground, which isn’t where Kamara does most of his work, but in a game with a decently-high total in the Superdome looks like a good spot for a talented guy with a lower salary than most.
WR | Michael Thomas, vs. Carolina, $9,300
The Panthers give up more receptions than any other defense, and no one catches more passes than Michael Thomas. This is a volume matchup for a volume receiver.
WR | Devante Parker, @ Cleveland, $5,200
Parker has scored at least nine points in every week but one this season. Remarkably, his salary is still so low. The matchup here isn’t fantastic, but Parker is a safe floor play in a week with a few great budget receiving options.
WR | Sterling Shepard, @ Chicago, $4,900
Shepard is finally back from the concussion protocol. His price reflects the uncertainty of his status from earlier in the week, but he is expected to have a normal workload, which means when paired with Danny Dimes, a high target share and lots of upside.
TE | Noah Fant, @ Buffalo, $3,900
Fant gets plenty of red zone targets, and his target share should only increase now that Emmanuel Sanders is out of Denver. At this salary, this is one of most high-upside plays at the position.
FLEX | Miles Sanders, @ Philadelphia, $5,000
There are not a lot of depth at budget running back options this week; Sanders will get the majority of the running back touches in a game that features a hobbled Eagles offense. If Jordan Howard does play, Brian Hill fills the same space in a lineup and has a similar upside.
Next. The Lions should have Signed Kaepernick in the Offseason. dark
DST | Seahawks, @ Philadelphia, $2,600
The Eagles will definitely be without Lane Johnson and likely some other playmakers when they face Seattle, which ranks fifth in the league in takeaways. The high floor at a low price, with some high turnover potential.
