DraftKings Quarterbacks - Week 13 DFS Picks

Aaron Rodgers (vs HOU, $6,700) 

Since the Green Bay Packers lost all of their running back options to injury, Aaron Rodgers has become quite the fantasy quarterback. He was struggling earlier in the season, but right now, he can be used in both 50/50 contests and tournaments. The Houston Texans are solid defensively, but the Green Bay Packers must win this game. Rodgers thrives in must-win situations. In his last six games, he has posted over 25 fantasy points in all of them. His ceiling is pushing 40 fantasy points, and he has over 300 passing yards in three straight games. His struggles are over.

Colin Kaepernick (at CHI, $6,100)

Colin Kaepernick is one of the best fantasy quarterbacks in the league right now, especially on daily fantasy sports websites because of his low price tag. Against the Miami Dolphins, despite losing the game, he threw for just under 300 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception. He also ran for over 100 yards, posting over 35 fantasy points. In two of his three prior games, he posted over 20 fantasy points. His current fantasy production is elite. His price tag is low. The Chicago Bears are not a good defensive team at all, and if this game stays close, Chip Kelly will not hesitate to throw the ball over 40 times again. Use Kaepernick in all leagues until he cools down.

DraftKings Running Backs - Week 13 DFS Picks

Le'Veon Bell (vs NYG, $9,200)

Le'Veon Bell is still the best running back option in the league, as far as fantasy is concerned. In his last three games, he has over 25 fantasy points in all of them. The Pittsburgh Steelers are still throwing him the ball around five to 10 times per game, and he is still seeing over 20 carries per game, as well. The New York Giants are not going to be able to stop Bell. He is a target when the Steelers are winning, and he is a target when the Steelers are losing, making rostering him a win-win situation.

Jeremy Hill (vs PHI, $4,300)

Jeremy Hill has been playing well of recent for the Cincinnati Bengals. He is great for cash games because of his consistency. If he is not scoring touchdowns, he is catching five or six passes out of the backfield, which helps him to hit value. He has double-digit fantasy numbers in four of his last five games. Against the Cleveland Browns, he posted over 30 fantasy points on only nine rush attempts. His upside is undeniable. He is only expected to be owned around 15 percent this week against a Philadelphia Eagles team that owns one of the worst rush defenses in the league. Use Hill in all formats.

DraftKings Wide Receivers - Week 13 DFS Picks

Brandon Marshall (vs IND, $6,900) 

Brandon Marshall has not been consistent this season. In his last four games, he has double-digit fantasy numbers in two of them. Against the New England Patriots, he caught six of nine targets for just under 70 yards and a touchdown. This stat line totaled 18.7 fantasy points for the New York Jets' top receiving option. He gets a fantastic matchup against the poor Indianapolis Colts' defense this week, so using him in tournaments makes a lot of sense. His upside is around 30 fantasy points, which is on the same level as Antonio Brown or Julio Jones.

Jarvis Landry (at BAL, $5,400) 

The Miami Dolphins are hot right now, making their offense a bit more enticing than usual. Jarvis Landry has been playing well of recent, posting double-digit fantasy numbers in three of his last five games. In two of his last three games, he caught the ball every time he was targeted, which has to earn the trust of quarterback Ryan Tannehill. Tannehill has seven touchdowns in his last three games, and Landry is one of his top targets. As long as the Dolphins' offense continues to operate effectively, Landry continues to have huge upside in tournaments and rather decent consistency in cash games. DeVante Parker is also in danger of missing action.

DraftKings Tight Ends - Week 13 DFS Picks

Hunter Henry (vs TB, $2,900)

Hunter Henry has only five targets in his last two games. So, what makes him such a great tournament option this week for daily fantasy football? His upside, of course. In his last two games, he has two touchdowns. He gets a good matchup this week against the Tampa Bay Bucs, and his price tag is very low. He is competing for targets with Antonio Gates, but after Gates did not see a target last week against the Houston Texans, it is possible the San Diego Chargers are looking in the direction of Henry, the younger, comparatively-talented option.

DraftKings Defenses - Week 13 DFS Picks

Washington Redskins (at ARI, $2,400)

The Washington Redskins do not have one of the better defenses in the NFL right now, but with double-digit sacks in three of their last four games and double-digit turnovers in two of their last four games, it is worth taking them into consideration for tournament lineups. The Arizona Cardinals are not the powerhouse offense everyone was expecting them to be this season, while the Redskins are fighting for that Wildcard playoff spot. Expect the Redskins' defense to bring their 'A' game this week.
