NFL Week 18 Daily Fantasy Football Perfect Sunday Lineup

Welcome back to another edition of the Daily Fantasy Preview, and for Week 18, we’ll be breaking down my DFS Perfect Lineup for the Sunday Slate of action. With several teams resting starters, it provides a tougher feild to navigate as many fantasy stars will likely ride the pine with playoffs on the mind. Still, there are some great values to be had. Let’s dive in!


QB KYLER MURRAY | CARDINALS vs Seahawks | $6,400

Kyler’s been on a heater the last couple weeks, and has been a highly viable Fantasy asset since his return from injury around midseason. In that time, the Cardinals are actually not a bad team, circling right around .500 since his return. Trust Kyler this week in a good matchup against Seattle’s defense.

RB AARON JONES | PACKERS vs Bears | $6,300

Aaron Jones is finally producing the numbers that made fantasy managers draft him early to start the year. Injuries derailed his season spectacularly, but take advantage now of a true RB1 at a semi-discounted price.

RB JAMES CONNER | CARDINALS vs. Seahawks | $6,100

Another Cardinal playing lights out is Conner. His 3-TD performance last week will be tough to match, but he’s one of the few true workhorse backs in football and he’s basically unstoppable once he gets inside the 5 yard-line. Play him with confidence this week.

WR DJ MOORE | BEARS @ Packers | $7,000

The pairing of Moore with QB Justin Fields this season has turned Moore into a true WR1 for fantasy. That alone will make it difficult for the Bears to move on from Fields this offseason, but for now, Chicago looks to make one last impactful showing against their arch-rivals in Green Bay, a team that whipped them thoroughly way back in Week 1. Expect the connection to thrive one final week against a bad Packers defense.

WR JORDAN ADDISON | VIKINGS @ Lions | $5,300

Addison is fairly up and down, but I would expect the eliminated Vikings to play for pride and experience this week against Detroit, and the Lions are basically locked into the 3rd seed barring losses by both Dallas and Philly this weekend. Hard to imagine they play their starters for the entire game, which could leave Addison facing off against an already suspect Lions secondary playing its reserves for portions of the game. A good machup and price here for Addison.

WR BRANDIN COOKS | COWBOYS @ Commanders | $5,200

Cooks has been Dak’s go-to Red Zone target the last few weeks, reeling in TDs in 4 of his last 6 games. If CeeDee Lamb gets some rest this week with the Cowboys looking to cruise against a bad Commanders team, Cooks could get even more looks. At this price, he’s a worthy add.

TE JUWAN JOHNSON | SAINTS vs. Falcons | $3,600

Johnson has been one of QB Derek Carr’s favorite targets over the last couple weeks, racking up double digit points in each of his last 3 outings, including 23 fpts last week. With the Saints season on the line, look for Carr to keep airing it out, and look for Johnson to be a primary target when New Orleans gets inside the opposing 20.

FLEX DAVONTA SMITH | EAGLES @ Giants | $6,900

Saving enough cash to get Smith in my FLEX spot feels great, and the Eagles need to win to keep their hopes of a division title alive. Expect Smith to get plenty of work against the Giants, who have been only OK as a pass defense this season.

D/ST DETROIT LIONS | vs. Vikings | $3,100

The Lions get an ether-floating Vikings squad with turnover-prone QBs and nothing to play for but pride. That sounds like a few sketchy heaves thrown downfield and some takeaway chances for an opportunistic Lions D. This feels like a high-upside play for only $3,100.
