Week 1 Start ‘Em: Defense
The beginning of the week
B / D ST vs Jets
The Beats will be a super popular option this week (the most expensive option on the D / ST Draftkings) based on the matchup against the Jets. His offense is a bit of a bancode, leaving Chris Hogan’s choice to run with the camp’s first team. The Jets O-Line is also a big question mark at this point, so the bill should be productive weekend,
Start ‘Em
Eagles D / ST in the football team
Eagles D / ST is behind Bill D / ST in this week’s DK order, and for good reason. The unit will deal with Dwayne Huskins’ turnover-statement quarterback and the lack of consistently established playmakers outside of Terry McLaurin. In a crucial NFC East battle for the Eagles, the unit should fly high in Week 1.
Steelers D / ST at Giants
As much as I like Daniel Jones taking a solid season, you have to consider his turnover numbers when it comes to this week’s game against the Steelers. The defense had great success against the Big Blue from a fictitious point of view, which is the league’s sixth-ranked average. Pittsburgh’s D / ST must begin this week.

Week 1 Seat ‘M: Defense
Sit for a week
Rams D / ST vs Cowboys
Rams has a lot of big-time players in defense, but is it a cowboys ’offense that can stop gambling? In 2019, the defense averages 2.88 fantasy points per game to face Dallas. Total over / under total () 3) and a quarterback at the post prescott who doesn’t spin the ball often, Los Angeles is a big time fade this week.
Sit down ‘m
Buchananers D / ST at Saints:
The Tampa Bay defense is expected to be a better unit in 2020, but I’m not sure it will do much to prevent crime on the home territory of Drew Bryce and the Saints. Last season, New Orleans allowed the third-lowest sacks, lost two tackles and has only eight stakes. Those numbers don’t give a good idea of what the actual shootout might be.
Packers D / ST on Vikings
The Packers could be in a bit of trouble this week, at least in terms of his defense, on the road against the Vikings. Kirk Cousins and his offense were tough on fictional defense in 2019, giving the game just 4.25 fictional points. The wicks don’t drop too many bags or even spin the ball too often, so I’ll throw a pack attack.
