DraftKings NFL Showdown Picks & DFS Lineups for Seahawks vs. Cowboys

Single-Entry/Cash Lineup

– Captain: Tyler Lockett ($11,100)
– Ezekiel Elliott ($12,400)
– Dak Prescott ($10,000)
– Doug Baldwin ($8,200)
– Cole Beasley ($5,000)
– Sebastian Janikowski ($3,000)

The single-entry lineup features a decent split between the Seahawks and Cowboys and focuses on players who should have a decent floor in this game. Obviously, the game flow can go a variety of different ways, and maybe Chris Carson winds up seeing 30 carries. Regardless of how things play out, I can envision both Seahawks pass-catchers producing a decent amount.

When attacking the Cowboys secondary, doing so from the outside is a tall task, but both Doug Baldwin and Tyler Lockett see a decent amount of work from the slot. In turn, both players will have a good chance to succeed here, even with the Cowboys allowing just 2,319 yards and 12 touchdowns to wideouts.

Lockett in the captain spot probably has some concerned, and it's understandable. For what it's worth, you could argue that Lockett has been the most consistent (not highest scoring) receiver on either team this year. He's topped 10.3 DraftKings points in 14 games this season while catching one touchdown in 10 games. Pairing that with his big-play ability only adds to the appeal.

As for Baldwin, he was held in check last week against the Arizona Cardinals, but I get a feeling the team didn't want to push it with their top wideout due to his injuries this season. In the two games prior, Baldwin caught 11 total passes for 203 yards and three touchdowns. He's one of Russell Wilson's favorite targets and has a nice mixture of floor/upside.

Dak Prescott & Cole Beasley

Prior to the arrival of Amari Cooper, it was Cole Beasley leading the way among Cowboys wide receivers, which is surprising to some. But if you've watched the rapport he has with Dak Prescott, it's not really stunning.

When looking back at his six-catch, 94 yards, one touchdown performance against the New York Giants in Week 17, it's great to see. But again, I care less about that one meaningless game than the fact he's seen his targets increase again over the recent weeks. Over the final three games of the season, Beasley saw 18 targets and topped 42 yards in each game.

While Beasley's numbers since the Cooper trade haven't been mind-blowing, he'll offer a safe floor in a good matchup. Beyond that, he should have little trouble racking up multiple catches and 50-plus yards with a touchdown potentially. At just $5,000, there's not a whole lot of risk involved with the play and a decent amount of upside.

I've spoken very little about Prescott to this point, but it's not due to lack of interest. I'll have solid exposure to the Cowboys quarterback on this slate, as he's totaled 14.8 or more DraftKings points in nine of the last 10 games.

In that same span, he topped 22.2 points on five occasions. I'm also fully expecting the Cowboys to let Prescott open up the field with his running ability again here, although it hasn't been needed in recent weeks. Prescott has still floated around 4-6 carries in recent weeks, but he could take off more in the open field here, which results in easy fantasy points.

The Cowboys signal-caller has thrown 16 touchdowns over the past 10 games and all five of his rushing touchdowns this year came in that span. Averaging over two touchdowns per game down the stretch of the season in a fine matchup makes for an appealing fantasy option on any slate.
