NFL DFS FanDuel GPP Picks Week 2 (Fantasy Football)

Building winning GPP lineups, by definition, is tough. There are, however, some key things to look for when filling out your roster. First and foremost is ceiling, we want the players with potential to score the most points. Next is leverage; we want the players that fall through the cracks. Finally, we have to build a lineup that tells a winning story through game script and stacking.

A final note before diving into the picks. Don’t ignore the Cash Picks article put out by Julia Papworth. Her article pairs perfectly with my GPP picks, as it is typically a good idea to mix in some value plays, especially if they fit the GPP-winning story you write. 

Week 1 was wild. Let’s learn from it and move on to Week 2.

Quarterbacks

Jalen Hurts @ KC – $8,300

We have the heavy hitters on this slate with Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, and Hurts all available. Given his tendency to score six-point rushing TDs, Hurts is always capable of taking down a GPP, especially on FanDuel. He scored two on the ground last week, and neither of them was via the tush push. Now he is taking on a Kansas City defense that was picked apart by Justin Herbert in Week 1. Plus, let’s not forget the 29 FD points he put up on the Chiefs in last year’s Super Bowl.
