NFL Wild Card Weekend DFS Picks For FanDuel

We have finally reached the NFL playoffs! The regular season went by in a blur, but lucky for us, we still have the entirety of playoffs to enjoy. The NFL playoffs are trickier for DFS as you don't have the usual big Sunday main slate, so tackling your slate selection is entirely up to you. For the purpose of this article, I will be judging the players based off of the Saturday to Monday slate, which encompasses all round one games. Since there aren't as many options as there are on a usual main slate, I will be forgoing my usual format and giving my top five plays at each position. Let's jump into my breakdown of the top plays et each position for NFL Wild Card weekend!
