NFL Daily League Lineups Advice for Fantasy Football (Fanduel) - Week 1

NFL daily lineups advice and picks, for Fanduel DraftKings and other daily fantasy football leagues. Read our daily analysis and win your daily leagues!

Dun Dun Dun Dunnnnnnnnnn.  Ladies and gentleman, it's finally here!  The moment we've all been waiting for!  It's the first football Sunday of the year... non-stop action all day... big pots... beer and chicken wings. Lets get to it!

 

Fantasy Football Daily Leagues - Lineup Picks for Week 1

 
Quarterback (QB) - Michael Vick, PHI
I'm really not sure why everyone is hyping Vick more for daily leagues.  Dont get me wrong chances are he will not make it through even half the season running Chip Kelly's option.... but the beauty of daily leagues is we really don't care about next week now do we?  At least 100 yards on the ground an 250 through the air with 3 total touchdowns will make him well worth his discounted price.
 

Editor's Note: The FFPC Baby Gorilla Tournament is now open, featuring a $100,000 grand prize and a $675,450 total prize pool! This 12-team, Tight End Premium contest uses a 20-round draft format, with the overall winners determined by total points scored during Weeks 15–17. Get $25 to use toward your first entry by signing up through our link. Grab your team now! Sign Up Now!
Running Back (RB) - LeSean McCoy, PHI
I really don't think the Redskins are going to be able to stop this option...  I see the Eagles scoring 40+ in this one... mostly on the ground.

 

Wide Receiver (WR) - Pierre Garcon, Washington Redskins
Hold onto your seats cause we got a shootout brewing in this game.  I see this as one of the higher scoring games on the board with two up tempo offenses slugging it out.  The fast pace and quick scores of the Philly offense is going to do a number on the Redskins defense.  When viewing the Redskins roster I don't see much talent at WR besides Garcon...  and someone is going to be on the receiving end of a ton of targets.

 

Tight End (TE) - Jimmy Graham, New Orleans Saints
If you want to get cute you can roll out Zach Sudfeld here, but Graham rang up the Falcons for about 150 yards 7 Catches and 2 TD's in this game last year.  When other people are praying for 10 pts out of their TE were going to be going for 30.

 

Defense (DEF) - New England Patriots
Big time Billy Bill eats rookie QBs for breakfast... The trendy pick is Tampa... and if there's one thing I learned betting on the NFL in my college days, it's that when everyone LOVES something be it that hot girl at the bar or The Buccaneers vs the beat up Jets... they never love you back 🙂 - go with the Pats.
