Daily fantasy extends the fantasy season another month as the NFL's Wild Card weekend kicks off postseason play. There are four games on this weekend's NFL slate giving DFS players a small player pool to choose from. On Saturday, the Raiders take on the Texans followed by the Lions-Seahawks prime time matchup. The Dolphins-Steelers kick things off on Sunday while the Giants-Packers are the final game of the weekend. Each week, Heavy breaks down the top players to put in your DraftKings lineup as well as some bonus picks of players who just missed our rankings. If you are looking for a bargain at quarterback, Dolphins quarterback Matt Moore is your best option at $5,100. He's both safer and has more upside than either Brock Osweiler or Connor Cook. Seahawks rookie running back Alex Collins is a great lottery ticket in tournaments for just $4,500. Collins workload has grown as Thomas Rawls has been ineffective. It would be no surprise if Seattle turns to Collins for the majority of carries against the Lions. Along the same lines, Steelers wide receiver Eli Rogers is a good lottery ticket but a bad play in cash games given his boom or bust nature. DeAndre Hopkins has the potential to take advantage of the Raiders secondary if Osweiler can get him the ball. Feel free to reach out to me on Twitter @JonDAdams for fantasy football questions. Players are listed in order from least to greatest level of priority. Click the arrow on the right side of the above image to see my DraftKings lineup picks for Wild Card weekend. (Getty)
