NFL DFS Showdown Lineup Picks: Jaguars-Jets

Trevor Lawrence has been on a roll, but he'll need more tread to keep it rolling tonight.

The forecast for East Rutherford, N.J. -- where the Jets' stadium sits -- calls for a 100% chance of rain, with "heavy rainfall possible." And it'll be windy: 20-30 mph, with high-wind warnings in the area.

Doesn't sound like a great night for passing the football.

That's why we've moved Lawrence down our Week 16 fantasy football rankings, along with his WRs. Does that boost the rushing output? We'll see. But we don't head in excited about any of the RBs.

Even in good weather, it'd be a negative matchup for Travis Etienne. It's worth noting, though, that the Jets defense hasn't been as tough on RB scoring as it has QBs and WRs.

The other offense, of course, has a Zach Wilson problem. Who can overcome that and make your showdown lineups cash tonight? Let's check the value charts ...

DraftKings

The individual coverage matchups make this game look better for Evan Engram than the Jacksonville WRs. The biggest question for him might be whether his strong production the past 2 weeks has priced him out of play here. I'd say no, because he's still $2600 cheaper than Christian Kirk and $600 short of Zay Jones.

It's the main guys in play here, and that makes it easier to roll with Etienne. The Jets have been tough against the run but have also yielded an OK 4.0 yards per rush. If Etienne finds any success, it'll be rushing. He's averaging just 1.9 receptions per game and hasn't caught more than 3 passes in a contest this year.
