Get ready for the NFL Divisional Round with key start and sit advice for your fantasy lineup
When it comes to starting players, you can’t go wrong with Josh Allen. He’s known for keeping the offense alive with big plays, so he’s a solid pick. If Russell Wilson could throw for over 270 yards against the Ravens, you can bet Allen will do even better.
On the other hand, Jayden Daniels is also a good choice against the Lions. Before Sam Darnold’s rough game, the Lions were giving up tons of passing yards and touchdowns. Daniels has been on fire lately, so he’s worth a shot.
For running backs, Jahmyr Gibbs is a must-start against the Commanders. They struggle to stop the run, and Gibbs has been racking up the yards. Even if David Montgomery comes back, Gibbs is too hot to sit. Saquon Barkley is another one to watch. He might not break records again, but he’ll still be a key player against the Rams.
Wide receivers like Amon-Ra St. Brown and A.J. Brown are also in the mix. St. Brown has a chance to shine despite Washington’s defense, while A.J. Brown is one of the best left in the playoffs. He had a great game against the Rams earlier this season, so expect him to show up.
Tight end Dalton Kincaid could surprise everyone with a breakout game against the Ravens. A solid performance from him would be a win.
On the flip side, there are some players to avoid. C.J. Stroud is facing a tough challenge against the Chiefs, and Patrick Mahomes is spreading the ball around, making it hard to predict his scoring. Joe Mixon and Derrick Henry are also risky starts this week, as their matchups don’t look promising.
So, gear up for an exciting Divisional Round and make those smart picks!
