Week 12 has arrived for NFL DFS players, and there are three matchups on the Sunday ‘main slate’ that feature an over/under of 50 points or higher. Lions vs. Giants, Colts vs. Chiefs and Patriots vs. Bengals will all be potential sources of major offense. NFL DFS lineups won’t feature Ja’Marr Chase (suspension), Joe Burrow (toe) or Jaxson Dart (concussion) this week, but big names like Amon-Ra St. Brown, Drake Maye and Patrick Mahomes are all in play.
Which NFL DFS picks from those matchups should you target, and are there players from potentially lower-scoring games like Seahawks vs. Titans or Raiders vs. Browns who should factor into your NFL DFS strategy?

Top NFL DFS picks for Week 12
Part of McClure’s NFL DFS strategy for the Week 12 main slate is rostering Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce at $5,000 on DraftKings and $6,000 on FanDuel. Generally the most expensive tight end in the player pool in recent years, Kelce is now the third-most expensive TE option on the main slate for both sites as his overall production has slipped. McClure, however, is encouraged by his massive numbers last week that included season highs in targets (13), receptions (9) and yards (91). The Colts rank 30th in the league in points given up to opposing Fantasy tight ends, opening the door for a massive day for Kelce in what could be a high-scoring game. See who else to roster at SportsLine.
Another one of McClure’s NFL DFS picks is Packers running back Emanuel Wilson ($6,500 on FanDuel, $5,300 on DraftKings), who could see a big workload with Josh Jacobs (knee) listed as questionable. Wilson, a third-year pro out of Fort Valley State, did a nice job in relief last week with 49 scrimmage yards and a score. He was also effective against the Steelers last month in the other game he saw extensive action, piling up 87 scrimmage yards. Minnesota has given up the ninth-most rushing yards to opposing backs this year and the Vikings might not have starting edge Jonathan Greenard (shoulder, questionable).
