In Week 3 of the NFL season, the New England Patriots (1-1) are set to face off against the New York Jets (1-1) at MetLife Stadium for Thursday Night Football. Both teams are looking to establish momentum, and considering this is a divisional game, the stakes are high. The Patriots have been surprisingly pleasant to watch this year and the Jets are slowly finding some rhythm.
In this article we´ll take a look at the top DFS picks for this matchup.
Patriots @ Jets DFS Picks Start´Em/ Sit´Em
Start’Em
Garrett Wilson, WR, New York Jets (DraftKings: $7.1K, FanDuel: $7.9K)
Garrett Wilson is the top WR for the Jets and a key target for Aaron Rodgers. With his speed and ability to create separation, Wilson is poised for a big game. In previous games, especially week 1 against SF, Wilson was a focal point in the Jets’ passing attack. With the Patriots’ secondary facing some challenges, he has the potential for decent production. Keep an eye on his 1-on-1 with Christian Gonzalez.
Rhamondre Stevenson, RB, New England Patriots (DraftKings: $6.K, FanDuel: $6.9K)
Rhamondre Stevenson has been a reliable option in the Patriots’ backfield. This season he has been nothing short of a workhorse, providing the Patriots with decent production and stability from the ground. In all likelihood, the Patriots are likely to turn to him once again.
Sit’Em
Jacoby Brissett, QB, New England Patriots (DraftKings: $5K, FanDuel: $6.7K)
While Jacoby Brissett can provide stability, Jacoby Brissett is a terrible fantasy performer. As he played in the game against the Seahawks, he is not comfortable outside a script and does not possess the ability to improvise. For this reason, you can expect low production for a high price.
Breece Hall, RB, New York Jets (DraftKings: $7.4K, FanDuel: $8.6K)
Breece Hall is a solid rusher, but his role may be limited due to the Patriots’ play against the run this year. While Hall possesses the ability to break big plays, the matchup doesn´t look that good for this week.
Total Apex Lock of the Game
Aaron Rodgers, QB, New York Jets (DraftKings: $6K, FanDuel: $7.4K)
Aaron Rodgers is always a player to consider in fantasy lineups. With the Patriots’ defense focusing on shutting down Wilson and other playmakers, Rodgers will find opportunities to get his offense into scoring situations.
Total Apex Fade of the Game
Ja´Lynn Polk, WR, New England Patriots (DraftKings: $3.9K, FanDuel: $5.1K)
Polk has shown flashes, last week he caught his first TD as a Pro. However, against a tough Jets team, don´t expect too much out of him. Unfortunately, the Patriots WRs will not see explosive production until Drake Maye is in the picture.
