Best NFL DFS Picks for Sunday- Cardinals vs. Broncos- December 18 | 2022 NFL Regular Season
The Arizona Cardinals travel to Mile High to face the Denver Broncos. Both teams are missing their starting quarterbacks, so this could become a slugfest, decided in the trenches.
Best quarterback picks
Cash Games: Colt McCoy, QB, Arizona Cardinals (DraftKings $5K, FanDuel $6.1K)
Just the classic we were hoping for: Colt McCoy vs. Brett Rypien. McCoy has the better playmakers around him, so he gets the nod in Cash games.
Tournaments: Brett Rypien, QB, Denver Broncos (Draftkings $5K, FanDuel $6.5K)
The Broncos' offense has little life to it. Can Brett Rypien inject some energy into this lifeless unit?

Best running back picks
Cash Games: James Conner, RB, Arizona Cardinals (DraftKings $6.9K, FanDuel $7.2K)
James Conner is the chalk play at the RB position. Oddly enough, with Colt McCoy under center, James Conner gains value at the RB position. Colt McCoy checks the ball down and gets his backs involved as pass catchers. James Conner is the most secure player in this game from either side.
Tournament: Marlon Mack, RB, Denver Broncos (DraftKings $4.4K, FanDuel $5.2K)
Marlon Mack shocked many last week when he burst onto the scene for the Denver Broncos with some explosion out of the backfield, something that Broncos fans had not seen since Javonte Williams went out with an early-season injury. If the Broncos' coaching staff decides to get Marlon Mack more involved this week, he makes for a sparkling low-cost option.
Wide receivers and tight ends
Cash Games: DeAndre Hopkins, WR, Arizona Cardinals (DraftKings $7.7K, FanDuel $8.4K)
DeAndre Hopkins has been as consistent as any receiver in the NFL since he returned from his six-game suspension. Hopkins is a dynamic pass-catcher and uses outstanding body control at the point of contact.
He will see plenty of Patrick Surtain II all afternoon long. Get your popcorn ready for one of the best WR/CB match-ups you will see all year.
Tournament: Marquise Brown, WR, Arizona Cardinals (DraftKings $5.5K, FanDuel $6.8K)
Keep an eye on the injury report before tomorrow's games since Marquise Brown is questionable. The expectation is that Brown will suit up for the Cardinals.
Marquise Brown is the ultimate wild card play with QB Colt McCoy under center. McCoy is more of the intermediate and check-down passer, whereas injured QB Kyler Murray was the one who is more inclined to take shots down the field. In tournament fields, you chase the upside, and Hollywood Brown brings just that.
