Brian Thomas, WR, Jacksonville Jaguars (DraftKings: $6.3K, FanDuel: $6.2K)

Brain Thomas Jr. has been a standout receiver for the Jaguars this year, consistently proving to be a reliable target for Trevor Lawrence. His ability to make plays after the catch makes him a must-start against a Patriots secondary that has struggled to contain explosive receivers. Look for Thomas to be heavily involved in the Jags’ game plan.

Drake Maye, QB, New England Patriots (DraftKings: $5.3K, FanDuel: $7.2K)

Drake Maye will start his 2nd game as a pro in the NFL this week and if his first game was any indication, he could be poised for a lot of production. He has a talent for finding deep throws and making plays, so it will be very interesting to see.

Week 7 New England Patriots vs. Jacksonville Jaguars DFS Picks Sit’Em

Rhamondre Stevenson, RB, New England Patriots (DraftKings: $6.1K, FanDuel: $6.7K)

Against a talented Jacksonville Jaguars defense, Stevenson will likely see few opportunities on the ground and through the air. Even though he´s been a workhorse for most of the year, expect his role to be smaller this game, especially as Drake Maye´s high-powered passing game begins to take control of the Patriots’ offense.

Christian Kirk, WR, Jacksonville Jaguars (DraftKings: $5.7K, FanDuel: $6K)

While Christian Kirk has had his moments this season, he’s often been overshadowed by other WRs. Against a Patriots defense that knows how to neutralize receivers, Kirk is unlikely to have a significant impact. Additionally, even though Kirk has enjoyed a larger role this year, there are a lot of question marks surrounding him.

Total Apex Lock of the Game

Tank Bigsby, RB, Jacksonville Jaguars (DraftKings: $5.8K, FanDuel: $6.9K)

You can expect the Jags to run the ball with Tank Bigsby all day against the Patriots. He has emerged as a key player in the Jags’ offense, especially with his explosive running style. Against a Patriots defense that has shown vulnerabilities in stopping the run, Bisby could have a huge day.

Total Apex Fade of the Game

Ja´Lynn Polk, WR, New England Patriots (DraftKings: $3.5K, FanDuel: $4.7K)

Despite being a key player for the Patriots on paper, Polk has been unable to fulfill expectations. Even though Drake Maye is now on the field, and there will be more offensive opportunities, you can expect him to try TE Hunter Henry or other receivers on the team. For this reason, Polk´s status looks uncertain.
