Cardinals-Lions Daily Fantasy NFL Picks, Betting Odds: Target AZ Wide Receivers
Gambling911.com has your Cardinals-Lions Daily Fantasy NFL picks along with the latest betting odds that had Arizona as a -3 road favorite. Probably no surprise here as the Bengals look to go 5-0 on the season.
What to Consider With The Cardinals: Last week was the first of the season in which starting quarterback Carson Palmer did not score more than one touchdown. This week he will be looking for redemption against a Lions team that has given up the 12th most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks. Arizona is also improved against tight ends.
What to Consider With The Lions: As noted above, the Lions have given up a decent number of points to opposing quarterbacks. They are, however, good against the run. Where the Lions are especially vulnerable is against receivers, for whom they have allowed the 8th most fantasy points this season.
Who to Play: Carson Palmer ($6.6K) - He is still a steal at this price and playing against a Lions team that should allow Palmer to go back to having his usual multiple touchdowns per game.
Floyd was targeted a season-high seven times last week and caught five balls for 59 yards after having just two catches for 30 yards the first three weeks.
Larry Fitzgerald ($6.8K) – He is the bona fide star here and the price is doable especially when one considers, through four games, Fitzgerald has gone 120-1,728-20 pace on 148 targets.
John Brown ($5.1K) - A more affordable option to Fitzgerald against a Lions team that has struggled mightily versus opposing wide receivers, Brown caught 7-of-10 targets for 75 yards in the Cardinals' Week 4 loss to the Rams. Through four games, he's on pace for a 76-912-4 line on 108 targets. More DFS players are likely to be on Fitzgerald, making Brown an even more attractive option.
Michael Floyd ($3K) – Price alone says take him in 12 and 14 man leagues ONLY. Last week Floyd was targeted a season-high seven times with five catches for 59 yards.
