Week 5 of the NFL will feature the Las Vegas Raiders (2-2) will face off against the Denver Broncos (2-2) at Empower Field at Mile High. The Raiders are riding high after a strong victory against the Browns, while the Broncos are looking to continue their winning streak after beating the Bucs and Jets. With two very underrated teams facing each other, it should be a good one to watch
With this in mind, in this article, we’ll break down the top DFS picks for this exciting divisional clash.
Raiders vs. Broncos Start’Em
Brock Bowers, TE, Las Vegas Raiders (DraftKings: $5.5K, FanDuel: $8.1K)
Even though Bowers is a rookie, it looks as if he is becoming a cornerstone of the Raiders’ offense next to DaVante Adams, he is seeing plenty of action and will likely get a decent performance. Additionally, his ability to break tackles and gain yards after contact makes him one of the top TE threats in the league up to week 5.
Courtland Sutton, WR, Denver Broncos (DraftKings: $5.5K, FanDuel: $5.6K)
Courtland Sutton has quickly become a favorite target for Bo Nix in Denver´s offense. With a focus on getting him the ball, especially in red zone situations, he’s poised for a productive day against a Raiders secondary that can be exploited. Look for Sutton to come up big in big-play scenarios.
Raiders vs. Broncos Sit’Em
Bo Nix, QB, Denver Broncos (DraftKings: $5K, FanDuel: $7.0K)
Even though Nix has begun to show some flashes of brilliance, he still has a lot to prove for this season. Focusing on this game, Facing a Raiders team that has sneaky potential, Nix might do well. However, the main concern is that he´s struggled to get TD passes up to now. It will be important to monitor his progress, but for now, don´t expect him to do something unbelievable.
Zamir White, RB, Las Vegas Raiders (DraftKings: $5.1K, FanDuel: $5.0K)
Now the Raiders´RB1, Zamir White has not seen significant touches this year. Unless there’s a significant change in the game script, it’s best to avoid White this week, as his role in the offense is too limited.
Total Apex Lock of the Game
Davante Adams, WR, Las Vegas Raiders (DraftKings: $7.1K, FanDuel: $8.5K)
Whether it´s Green Bay or Las Vegas, Davante Adams is a magnet for football and the go-to receiver for the Raiders. With a high likelihood of being heavily targeted, Adams’s potential remains considerable. His elite route-running and ability to make contested catches make him a top-tier play against a Broncos secondary that may struggle to contain him.
Total Apex Fade of the Game
Javonte Williams, RB, Denver Broncos (DraftKings: $5.2K, FanDuel: $4.9K)
Even though JAvonte Williams is a heck of a player, with a very physical front 7 that has proved to be a force against running the ball, don´t expect much from Javonte Williams. Despite some moments of promise, you can expect Williams’s performance to be average for this game and thus a sit.
