NFL DFS DraftKings Cash Picks: Week 16 (Fantasy Football)
NFL DFS cash games are all about building a high-floor lineup that can win in head-to-heads, 50/50s, and double-ups. Each week I’ll highlight my favorite cash game picks that I have some confidence heading into the weekend to put into my player pools.

Quarterbacks
Jacoby Brissett $5,300 vs. ATL
King Jacoby forever and always…even against the Texans! The man is averaging 48.8 drop backs per start, and the Cardinals clearly know what their identity is right now. Arizona has a massive 67% neutral pass rate over the last month, which is by far #1 in the NFL. It’s entirely possible the Cardinals don’t fall behind by 2+ scores the way they have in recent weeks, which has aided Brissett’s garbage time production. That said, the matchup should boost Brissett’s efficiency. Over the last five weeks, the Falcons are 30th in schedule-adjusted fantasy points allowed to QBs, and in that sample, they’re 23rd in drop back success rate. With Marv trending towards a return here, Brissett should have his full complement of weapons.
