Top NFL DFS picks for Saints vs. Packers on MNF
One of Kaylor’s top NFL DFS picks for Monday Night Football is Packers quarterback Jordan Love. The former Utah State star is thriving in his second full season as the starter in head coach Matt LaFleur’s offense. Love enters Monday night with 2,953 yards, 23 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. He’s also rushed for 75 yards and a score.Â
Love has been playing some of his best football of the season over the last month. In his past four games, the 26-year-old quarterback has led Green Bay to a 3-1 record, while throwing for 872 yards, seven touchdowns, and he has committed zero turnovers. With a chance to lock up a postseason spot, Kaylor expects another big game from Love on Monday Night Football. See who else to roster here.
Part of Kaylor’s Monday Night Football DFS strategy is stacking Love with Green Bay wide receiver Christian Watson. The former second round pick out of North Dakota State has been on a solid run over the last three weeks, catching nine passes for 237 yards on 17 targets. Watson has to compete for targets with fellow wide receivers Jayden Reed and Romeo Doubs, but his big play ability makes him a threat to score any time he touches the ball.
Watson enters Monday with 29 catches for 620 yards and two touchdowns. His yards per catch average of 21.4 ranks second in the NFL, trailing only Alec Pierce of the Indianapolis Colts. Green Bay will be facing a banged up Saints secondary and defense, which could make them susceptible to big plays from Watson on Monday night. See who else Kaylor likes right here.
