NFL DFS, Rams vs. Saints: DraftKings, FanDuel daily Fantasy football picks for Thursday Night Football

The New Orleans Saints and Los Angeles Rams will kick off the Week 16 NFL schedule on Thursday Night Football. Both teams are coming off pivotal wins to keep them in the NFL playoff picture. The Rams are averaging 33 points per game over their last four contests, so should daily Fantasy football players prioritize Los Angeles players for NFL DFS picks and TNF DFS stacks? Should you use Matthew Stafford with Cooper Kupp and/or Puka Nacua for NFL DFS lineups and NFL DFS stacks? What Saints are worth rostering as a part of your NFL DFS strategy? Before locking in your NFL DFS picks for Saints vs. Rams on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel, you need to see what Mike McClure has to say.

McClure is a legendary professional DFS player with more than $2 million in career winnings. He uses a powerful prediction model that simulates every snap of NFL action, taking factors such as matchups, statistical trends, and injuries into account. This allows him to find the best DFS values that he shares only with members at SportsLine. His methodology has led to enormous cashes on FanDuel and DraftKings.

He took down two high-stakes tournaments on FanDuel in 2020 and recorded a pair of top-10 finishes in tournaments with over 130,000 entrants on DraftKings. His lineups also finished inside the top 1% in more than a dozen other tournaments. Last year, he won the DraftKings Millionaire Maker twice and the FanDuel Million once.

Now, McClure has turned his attention to Rams vs. Saints on Thursday Night Football and locked in his top daily Fantasy football picks. You can only see them by heading to SportsLine.

Top NFL DFS picks for Saints vs. Rams

One of McClure’s top NFL DFS picks for Thursday Night Football is Rams receiver Cooper Kupp. The 30-year-old hauled in all of his eight targets for 111 yards and a touchdown in a 28-20 win over the Commanders last week for his second straight 100-yard game. Kupp had eight receptions on 10 targets for 115 yards and a touchdown the week before.

Kupp has a touchdown in three straight games as he and Stafford continue to show off their incredible chemistry. He has 22 receptions on 26 targets over the last three weeks, securing 84.6% of his targets over that span. Kupp has been one of the most reliable receivers in the NFL when healthy over the last few seasons, including averaging 90.2 yards per game last year after averaging 114.5 yards the season before. Kupp has gone for at least 100 yards in four of his 10 games last season and McClure sees him as a strong option for TNF NFL DFS lineups this week.

Part of McClure’s optimal NFL DFS strategy also includes rostering Saints running back Alvin Kamara. The 28-year-old had 110 total yards last week in a 24-6 win over the Giants after rushing for 56 yards and a touchdown the week before. 

He has more than 100 total yards in three of his last four games as Kamara has been a huge part of the New Orleans passing attack to go with his rushing ability. Kamara is averaging a career-high in receptions per game (6.2) for 40.5 yards per game while hauling in 87.2% of his targets. Commanders running back Antonio Gibson had five receptions against the Rams last week. Kamara is averaging 7.1 targets per game and that trend will likely continue against Los Angeles. See the rest of McClure’s NFL DFS player pool right here.
