DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Week 14 Daily College Fantasy Football - Saturday (12/3/22)

John Rhys Plumlee - CFB DFS Lineup Picks, Daily College Fantasy Football, NFL Draft

Mike's DraftKings daily fantasy college football lineup picks for the Saturday Week 14 (12/3/22) slate. His CFB DFS lineup picks and DFS sleepers will help you win.

Our Saturday slate is only eight games, but they are all conference championship games and it lasts all day! This is the last slate where we get more than three or four games until New Year's Eve, so let's enjoy it!

Noon brings us the MAC Championship between Toledo and Ohio. The Big 12(10) Championship turns Dallas purple with a rematch of TCU and Kansas State. Things heat up in the middle of the day with Troy hosting Coastal Carolina for the Fun Belt crown. UCF heads to the Big Easy to face a not-so-easy test in Tulane. LSU heads to Hot-lanta to take on the Dawgs for the SEC crown. Frenso heads up to Boise to try and avenge at 20-point loss, but they have their starting quarterback this time. Prime time gives us Michigan heading to Indy to take on a biased Purdue crowd. We finish this off with Clemson heading up to Charlotte to take on the Tarheels.

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for DraftKings on 12/3/22 locking at noon eastern. I’ll provide multiple player suggestions for players at quarterback, running back, and wide receiver, aiming to highlight one option at the high, middle, and lower end of the salary scale. Good luck, RotoBallers.

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Quarterbacks

Max Duggan, TCU ($8,100)

Duggan is one of those methodical guys that puts up solid numbers and you don't realize how good they are until he's standing there on the other side of the ring on his feet and you're dazed and confused on the canvas. Duggan had another one of those solid performances in the first game against Kansas State, putting up 24.5 DraftKings points. He threw for 280 yards and three touchdowns and once again didn't make a mistake. That's what we can expect from Duggan here. He won't break the slate, but he won't be the reason you don't cash either.

Jake Haener, Fresno State ($7,200)

Haener is averaging 304 passing yards per game and that includes the USC game in which he missed about half of it. He was unspectacular against Wyoming last week, but that's because the Cowboys couldn't stop the run. Boise's run defense is pretty good, so I expect Haener to take to the air more in this one. He has cleared 30 DraftKings points in two of the last four games. Haener is peaking at the right time to give the Bulldogs a shot at a conference title.

Will Howard, Kansas State ($6,300)

The Wildcats are saying that Howard will start the game no matter the status of Adrian Martinez. That makes Howard worth using. He put up 25.1 DraftKings points against TCU the first time around and the Wildcats didn't even open the playbook for him until the second half. Howard has some pretty big upside here considering Kansas is the only team to hold him under 20 DraftKings points.

Also consider: Drake Maye, North Carolina ($8,500); John Rhys Plumlee, Central Florida ($7,700); Michael Pratt, Tulane ($7,000); Aidan O'Connell, Purdue ($5,700)

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Running Backs

Sieh Bangura, Ohio ($7,100)

Bangura has scored a touchdown in every MAC game this season with the exception of the NIU game in which he didn't finish. The Bobcats leaned heavily on Bangura down the stretch with Kurtis Rourke out. They will have to here as well since Rourke has been ruled out for the remainder of the season with his knee injury. He has slate-breaking potential against an average-at-best Toledo run defense.

Donovan Edwards, Michigan ($6,400)

We don't have to play the guessing game with Blake Corum this week. Is it a tough loss for Michigan? Yes. The presence of Edwards makes sure that it's not a steep decline though. Edwards ran wild on Ohio State, racking up 216 yards on 22 carries and finding paydirt twice. The same kind of day is in store for him against Purdue as well. Edwards can carry the load when asked to and he most certainly will be here as Michigan seeks to make the playoff for the second straight season.

Kimani Vidal, Troy ($5,700)

Vidal has 450 rushing yards and six rushing touchdowns in the last two games alone. He is severely underpriced against a CCU defense that hasn't been that great this season. Vidal is my favorite play on the entire slate at this price.

Also consider: Deuce Vaughn, Kansas State ($7,200); Tyjae Spears, Tulane ($6,700); Kendre Miller, TCU ($6,600); Ashton Jeanty, Boise State (4,600)

 

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Wide Receivers

Josh Downs, North Carolina ($7,600)

The numbers for Downs have taken a hit lately because of the struggles of Drake Maye. That said, Downs has still put up decent numbers. He just hasn't scored a touchdown. South Carolina exploited the Clemson secondary last week. The Tarheels are more than capable of doing the same with Downs as long as Drake Maye can find his vacated confidence. I think he will here and the Tarheels will give Clemson all they want and maybe more.

Devin Maddox, Toledo ($5,400)

No matter who has been at quarterback, Maddox has been the preferred target. He has at least 70 yards in four straight games but has only found the end zone once in that span. We might see Toledo have to throw a little more than they would like in this one, which can only lead to good things for Maddox.

Cornelius Johnson, Michigan ($5,100)

Johnson got loose in the Ohio State secondary a couple of times last week on big plays. Will Michigan throw it around a little again, or are they going to go back to death by ground attack? I think they will probably run more, but this cat is out of the bag. McCarthy to Johnson should happen a few times in this game. The price is low enough to throw that dart in a GPP.

Ben Sinnott, Kansas State ($3,500)

Last week against Kansas was the only dud Sinnott has had with Will Howard at QB. However, he didn't catch a pass after Howard entered against TCU the first time around either, so there is plenty of risk here. Like it or not, Sinnott is now a pretty big part of the K-State offense. In a game in which the Wildcats would like to control the ball, Sinnott could have a nice game in the short passing game. He has to be reserved for GPPs only though.

Also consider: Jordan Addison, USC ($7,400); Brock Bowers, Georgia ($6,000); Jacoby Jones, Ohio ($5,500); Deuce Watts, Tulane ($4,900); DeMeer Blankumsee, Toledo ($4,800); Tyrick James, Tulane ($4,000)
