Week 1 of the 2023 NFL season featured an emotional rollercoaster of an AFC East clash, a Jets-Bills matchup that ended up more of a great American saga than a football game. Now fans, bettors, and DFS enthusiasts alike Duke Snid Jersey can look forward to yet another divisional rivalry, the latest installment of Patriots-Dolphins at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, MA.All eyes will be on this one, and a ton of Pats-Fins DraftKings lineups will be constructed by the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff (NBC). Today we will steer you in the right direction, and hopefully help you a semble a squad that brings you a cash windfall.Speaking of windfall, Hurricane Lee should be well past southern New England by Sunday night. The category-1 storm has been roaring up the eastern Atlantic Ocean for days, and meteorologists expect landfall in eastern Ma sachusetts by Saturday morning. By game day, it will be headed toward Nova Scotia.Phew let me take my storm-chasing hat off and throw my betting fedora back on. Let's make some money! Here'sour DraftKings lineup for Sunday Night Football between the Patriots and Dolphins.Before we break down our picks and strategy, here are the most notable scoring rules for FanDuel contests:four-point pa sing TDsandhalf-point PPR.MORE SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL:| |MVP (1.5x points) Tua Tagovailoa, QB, Dolphins ($16,500)We don't Matt Kemp Jersey pay 1.5 times the player's price to put them in our MVP spot, unlike DraftKings with the captain spot. But weget 1.5 times the player's total points. So, naturally, I'm electing to take who I believe will be the top scorer in the contest.Tua looked absolutely incredible in Week 1 against the Chargers, totaling 466 pa sing yards and three TDs. Even against a better Patriots defense, the ceiling remains humongous. Bill Belichick's boys are without top cornerback Jack Jones (IRed and loaded with i sues) and Jonathan Jones has been slapped with a "questionable" tag due to an ankle injury.Just like last year around this part of the season, Tua Time might last longer than a week and we're here for it.FLEX Rhamondre Stevenson, RB, Patriots ($14,000)I've got shares of Stevenson all over fantasy, and this week I want him in basically every DFS tournament I enter. He's a solid, super-dependable runner with even better pa s-catching skills and open-field playmaking ability. Even if the Dolphins blow the doors off the Pats, 'Mondre will benefit from garbage-time dump-offs and RB screens. Don't sleep on this dude he's better than his fantasy ADPshis DFS prices might suggest.FLEX Jaylen Waddle, WR, Dolphins ($13,500)We get that FanDuel is 0.5 PPR as opposed to a full PPR, but $13,500 still seems like a bargain for Waddle. The dude has hauled in 16-of-22 targets for 217 total yards and three TDs in four games against New England throughout his career.If Bill Belichick's game plan is to neutralize Tyreek Hill, he will devote whatever a sets he needs to in order to execute that strategy. That includes throwing double-coverage at him, run-funneling, and going with a no-blitz approach. Pretty much all of those hypotheticals would benefit Waddle on the other side of the field, so we expect a big game from the third-year man out of 'bama.FLEX Hunter Henry, TE, Patriots ($10,000)When Week 1 concluded, Henry ranked No. 1 in fantasy points among Jackie Robinson Jersey all tight ends something that hasn't happened since his days with the Chargers. Mac Jonesthrowing to this dude, whether it's to move the chains or put six on the board.Don't be surprised if Henry stays active again this week at home, with the over/under set at 46.5 points and Miami having struggled to defend Bolts tight ends Gerald Everett and Donald David Freese Jersey Parham last week. Go big-game hunting and bag yourself a Henry this weekend.FLEX De'Von Achane, RB, Dolphins ($5,500)Mike McDaniel loves himself a running back and now that Achane has no injury designation related to the shoulder i sue he dealt with last month, we love the upside that comes with this rookie back. Jeff Wilson Jr. is on IR and starting back Raheem Mostert got banged up in the barnburner with the Bolts last week (B alliteration for the win). Unleash the Achane like a runaway freight train.This year, we're also listing our favorite weekly DFS plays on.For those unfamiliar,DFS scoring involves point multipliers as opposed to traditional salary-capped or tiered contests. A winning lineup will likely feature a strong mix of stud fantasy contributors with 1x-1.6x boosts, as well as matchup-based sleepers with larger multipliers. Each player is a signed a scoring multiplier based on their value as determined by SuperDraft.Users can roster any player in their lineup with no restrictions.MORE:Here are the most notable scoring rules for SuperDraft NFL contests:Half-point PPR,four-point pa sing TDs,two-point bonuses for 100 rushing yards,100 receiving yards,and 300 pa sing yards.MORE SUPERDRAFT DFS:Champion (+50% points): Jaylen Waddle, WR, Dolphins (Multiplier 1.75X)Super FLEX: Tua Tagovailoa, QB, Dolphins(1.65x)Super FLEX: Rhamondre Stevenson, RB, Patriots(1.9x)Super FLEX: Raheem Mostert, RB, Dolphins (2.1x)SuperFLEX: Hunter Henry, TE, Patriots (2.45x)We're avoiding Hill yet again because it just seems like 90 percent of entries will probably take him with no salary cap. If he underwhelms and one of our higher boosts goes boom, we're coming away with some money. We have high Babe Herman Jersey -floor options Waddle with the +50 percent points multiplier on top of the 1.75x boost, Tua at 1.65x, both starting backs, and the top-scoring tight end from Week 1.
