Best NFL DFS picks for Monday Night Football
One of McClure’s top NFL DFS picks for Monday Night Football is Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. The 25-year-old scored a touchdown in each of Jacksonville’s first two games and he had 13 of 18 running back carries last week. Backup running back Tank Bigsby did not have a carry in Week 2 after suffering a shoulder injury on a kick return in the second quarter and he was limited at practice this week. Etienne has at least 1,000 rushing yards and 1,400 yards from scrimmage in each of his first two NFL seasons as he has been a high-volume back for Jacksonville since being selected No. 25 overall in the 2021 NFL Draft and working his way back from a season – ending foot injury he suffered that preseason.
The Bills are allowing the second most Fantasy football points to opposing running backs this season. They entered Week 3 allowing the second most receptions and receiving yards against opponents this season and Etienne is an effective pass catcher. He had 58 receptions, the sixth most for a running back last season, for 476 yards, the fifth most at the position. Etienne had a huge performance against Buffalo last season, rushing for 156 yards on 26 carries (5.2 yards per rush) with two touchdowns and added three receptions for 28 yards.
Part of McClure’s optimal NFL DFS strategy is Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase. It’s been a slow start to the season for Chase, who has just 10 receptions for 97 yards over his first two games, but he’s undeniably one of the best talents in the NFL. The No. 5 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft had at least 1,000 yards in each of his first three NFL seasons, averaging 1,239 receiving yards per year.
A meeting with the Commanders could be just what Chase needs to put together a huge performance. Washington ranks 29th in scoring defense (27.5 ppg) and yards allowed per game this season. The opposing teams’ top wide receivers were a major reason for those results. Giants WR1 Malik Nabers had 10 receptions for 127 yards and a touchdown last week against the Commanders. In Week 1, Mike Evans had two touchdowns and Chris Godwin had eight receptions for 83 yards and a touchdown. McClure expects a huge performance like these from Chase for Monday Night Football NFL DFS lineups. See who else McClure likes right here.
