Football is back, and it is a beautiful sight to behold. Thursday night’s kickoff game did not disappoint with several studs showing us why they deserve the highest daily and season-long fantasy recognition and lineup consideration. This week, we’ve already given you a glimpse at our tight end, wide receiver, running back and quarterback projections, and now it’s time bring it all together and showcase the DFS lineup our tool loves for this Sunday and Monday’s games. Obviously there’ll be no Cowboys or Buccaneers are available, but our DFS Optimizer tool has synthesized a lineup that could deliver in a huge way with the rest of the Week 1 slate.
