SuperDraft DFS picks for the Week 12 Thanksgiving Slate

SuperDraft is one of the hottest platforms in the market for DFS players. SuperDraft offers a unique twist on your traditional DFS experience with game modes like “Multiplier” and “Super 15.”

By eliminating the traditional salary cap structure and providing a points multiplier for every player on the slate, there is almost limitless flexibility when building lineups on SuperDraft. You can load up on all the studs, but their point multipliers will be low. You can balance those plays out with some long shots that could score up to 2x their fantasy points to vault you to the top of the leaderboards.

Similar to what has been provided the last six weeks, here are three plays I will anchor my SuperDraft DFS lineups around. While there are typically five plays, I will provide three plays per week and add an “others to consider” section full of the players who round out the vast majority of my player pool.

This gives you the ability to lock in the key three and fill in around it. Below are my top three options for the special three-game Thanksgiving slate in Week 12.

D’Andre Swift, RB, Detroit Lions (vs. CHI)

Score multiplier: 1.35x

Despite shaky offensive line play and a heap of negative gamescript, D’Andre Swift has absolutely torched his opponents on the ground over the last two weeks. Over that span, he’s averaged 133 rushing yards on 23.5 attempts per game, adding an additional 39 receiving yards per game. Even with Jamaal Williams back from injury, Swift has been the runaway alpha in this backfield.

While the Bears are a middling matchup against the run (15th in touchdowns allowed, 14th-most rushing yards allowed), Swift is one of the most game-script safe backs in the league, let alone on this small slate. This is the perfect opportunity to redeem himself from his 6.9-point performance against the Bears in Week 4 given the form he is in.

Others to consider

Ezekiel Elliott (1.1x)
David Montgomery (1.15x)
Mark Ingram (1.45x)

Darnell Mooney, WR, Chicago Bears (@ DET)

Score multiplier: 1.45x

With Allen Robinson expected to miss the Thanksgiving game for the Bears, Darnell Mooney should once again step in as the de facto WR1 in Chicago. Similar to Swift, Mooney comes into this game in prime form, having found paydirt three times over the last two weeks with 22 targets over that span.

While Andy Dalton assuming the starting role isn’t always the most comfortable feeling, a matchup with the Lions sure is. On the season, they’ve allowed the second-most yards-per-attempt (8.27), the second-highest average depth of target (9.49 yards), and the 10th-most red-zone passing touchdowns in the NFL. With Mooney commanding 28.9% of the target share in Chicago and a team-high 35.5% of the air yards with an 11.31-yard aDOT, this matchup is quite literally perfect for him. The 1.45x multiplier is simply the cherry on top.

Others to consider

Michael Gallup (1.35x) (if CeeDee Lamb is out)
CeeDee Lamb (1.2x) (if active)
Hunter Renfrow (1.35x)
Stefon Diggs (1x)

Dalton Schultz, TE, Dallas Cowboys (vs. LV)

Score multiplier: 1.35x

Regardless of whether CeeDee Lamb plays, Dalton Schultz is primed for a larger workload with Amari Cooper ruled out once again. Despite an overall down week for the Cowboys in Week 11, Schultz’s eight targets were second to only Michael Gallup on the team. This is a workload we should expect to continue because of both the voids at the wideout position as well as the workload Schultz has seen all season.

Against a leaky Raiders secondary, Schultz and his 1.35x multiplier feels like the best combination of floor and upside on the Thanksgiving slate at a weak position.
