Welcome to Week 13 of the NFL Season! Each week, I'll bring you our famous NFL DFS Cheat Sheet, featuring expert research and picks for cash games and GPPs. Here are a few notes about the sheet.
- We are using all 2025 data now!
- Green means GO (good for the player) while red reflects a poor rating/matchup. The more green, the better...
- CASH CORE pieces are highlighted with a BRIGHT GREEN highlighter on the chart for extra emphasis.
- The "fantasy points allowed rank" reflects how a player's opponent ranked in fantasy points allowed to their specific position. The lower the number, the better the matchup.
- Passing and rushing game matchups are again DVOA ratings, as I regained access to that metric and find it to be super helpful.
- A play labeled "cash" is a higher-owned play recommended for cash games. A "strong" play is playable in all formats. "Slate-breakers" are some of my favorite GPP targets for upside or reduced ownership.
- Vegas and risk columns will all be updated during the week to reflect injury info, weather info, and the most recent Vegas info.
Premium NFL DFS Cheat Sheet - Week 13
Because of the width of the cheat sheet, we recommend viewing it on a laptop or desktop monitor.
Cash Game Cores
DraftKings: Achane/Walker III/Olave
FanDuel: Achane/Walker III/Waddle/Olave
RB and WR Anchors
RBs: De'Von Achane (vs. NO) and Kenneth Walker III (vs. MIN)
While I have usually avoided "Chalk Achane" this season, I am going to embrace it this week as it's a very odd week with both Bijan Robinson and CMC in tougher matchups. The Dolphins have been playing better offensively, and the Saints' defense is very vulnerable to both the run and the pass. Achane should get a ton of total touches and is the safest pay-up in my opinion because of the high floor and solid matchup.
KW3 is stupid cheap on both sites, and the Seahawks are 12-point favorites this week. He didn't find the end zone last week, but continues to be the more productive back between him and Charbonnet. I'll eat this chalk, too, and try to jam KW3 and JSN into cash games, I think, to get maximum exposure to Seattle.
WR/TE: Jaxon Smith-Njigba (vs. MIN) and Chris Olave (vs. MIA)
JSN has been unstoppable, and Sam Darnold has been lights out against zone coverage this year. The Vikings run the most zone coverage of any team in football, so expect Sammy D to carve up the Vikes and feed the top receiver in football.
Olave SHOULD play tomorrow, but make sure he's in - if not, we will have to make some pivots. He's getting heavily targeted this year, and that shouldn't change this week as the Saints have zero run game and Miami has been much better against the run lately.
