DraftKings Quarterbacks - Week 14 DFS Picks

Josh Allen - BUF @ KC ($8,300)

Josh Allen and company have dealt with some highly-publicized struggles in 2023, as the Bills head into this Week 14 showdown against the rival Chiefs with a record of just 6-6. Offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey was fired after a shocking Week 10 home loss to Denver and Allen has responded since his departure by totaling seven TDs and 614 passing yards over Buffalo's last two games.

For all the talk of Allen's shortcomings this season, he still leads the QB position in DraftKings scoring in 2023 and possesses almost unmatched GPP upside. The Bills' signal-caller ranks second in the NFL in both TD passes (24) and QB rushing TDs (nine).

While he'll face a Kansas City defense that's been rock solid for the most part, these two teams have combined to average 60.5 points per game across their last four meetings, so there's unquestionably shootout potential here.

Jake Browning - IND @ CIN ($5,200)

The Bengals backup provides an interesting way to save meaningful salary at the QB position this week. Taking over for the injured Joe Burrow, the Washington product was phenomenal in his second career start against the Jaguars on Monday Night Football. Browning completed 32 of 37 passes for 354 yards and a score, while also running for a TD to lead the Bengals to an overtime win earlier this week.

Despite that explosive performance, Browning's price tag still sits at just $5,200 for a juicy matchup against the Colts. Indy is playing at the NFL's fastest pace and has allowed nearly 3,000 yards passing this season. We might not see the type of numbers from him that we saw Monday night, but Browning is in serious cash-game consideration on this slate.

DraftKings Running Backs - Week 14 DFS Picks

Alvin Kamara - CAR @ NO ($8,200)

I'd love to get up to Christian McCaffrey on this slate but his $9,200 price tag is undoubtedly a challenge. If you want to save $1k off CMC, Alvin Kamara is a pretty nice consolation prize. Since New Orleans' Week 11 bye, Kamara has been a usage monster that's averaged 22 opportunities per game over the Saints' last two, a workload that's allowed him to top 100 total yards in each of those contests.

The most rushing TD's in Saints history belongs to Alvin Kamara 🙌

That elite volume should continue to flow AK's way this week against Carolina. With Derek Carr currently in concussion protocol, the Saints offense will likely lean on Kamara against a Panthers run defense that's been one of the worst in the NFL this season. Carolina ranks dead last in the league in Rush Defense DVOA while relinquishing 2023's most rushing TDs (17) and third-most DraftKings points to opposing RBs.

Zack Moss - IND @ CIN ($5,900)

There's no sugarcoating it, Zack Moss disappointed as massive DFS chalk last week. Garnering the highest ownership levels we've seen this season, Moss mustered just 57 total yards and 7.7 DraftKings points against Tennessee in Week 13.

Despite that failure to produce, I'm going right back to Moss on this slate, as he remains drastically underpriced in a plus matchup against the Bengals. The Colts gave him an elite workload last week -- 94% snap share & 21 touches -- and anything similar to that volume in Week 14 makes him a certified DFS bargain. He also draws a better matchup than he had against the Titans. Cincinnati has been gashed for 4.54 yards per carry by opposing RBs and has coughed up the NFL's fourth-most rushing TDs (10) in 2023.

DraftKings Wide Receivers - Week 14 DFS Picks

D.J. Moore - DET @ CHI ($6,500)

In Justin Fields' two starts since returning to the Bears' starting lineup, DJ Moore has been targeted 22 times, reeling in 18 catches for 210 yards and a TD. He's now either gone over 100 receiving yards or caught a TD in Fields' last six injury-free games. Put simply...Moore has been a low-key cheat code when Fields is under center.

The dynamic duo comes off their bye week to an enticing divisional matchup against the Lions. Since opening the season with a torrid defensive pace, some cracks have started to show in this Detroit unit. They've relinquished 121 total points over their last four games and have been torched through the air for a massive 10.20 yards per target by opposing wideouts.

Rashee Rice - BUF @ KC ($5,400)

Anytime these two teams meet, I'm looking to get exposure to the potentially-explosive game environment. The trouble is that Buffalo and KC pieces are generally very expensive. Rashee Rice offers us a way in at a moderate price.

The rookie has progressively evolved into the alpha of this sad-sack Chiefs receiving corps. Rice has been targeted 19 times over KC's last two games, tallying 171 yards and a TD on 16 catches. Patrick Mahomes should once again lean on him in this matchup against the Bills.

MORE TOP WR PLAYS: Amon-Ra St. Brown ($8,200); Michael Pittman Jr. ($7,300); Elijah Moore ($4,500)

DraftKings Tight Ends - Week 14 DFS Picks

T.J. Hockenson - MIN @ LV ($6,000)

Death, taxes, and Joshua Dobbs throwing to the tight end are a few of life's certainties. In Dobbs' four games since entering the picture for Minnesota in Week 9, Hockenson has been targeted an eye-popping 40 times, which he's converted into 27 catches for 308 yards and a pair of scores. He currently leads all NFL tight ends in targets (108) and catches (80), while standing second in receiving yards (786).

Dobbs is fitting right in! #SKOL

With Dobbs still at the helm -- at least for now -- Hock should continue to see a steady diet of targets this week against Las Vegas. The Raiders are allowing an NFL-high 83.1% catch rate to the TE position this season.

Isaiah Likely - LAR @ BAL ($3,500)

Ok...so Likely isn't Mark Andrews, but at $3.5k, we don't need him to be. The young Ravens tight end looked his most Andrews-like in Baltimore's most recent outing, a Week 12 win over the Chargers in which Likely reeled in four of six targets for 40 yards. Baby steps.

Likely and company come off their bye week to face a Rams squad that's been routinely destroyed by opposing tight ends. Los Angeles has allowed the league's second-most TDs (six) and fourth-most receiving yards (726) to the TE position in 2023.
