Browns vs. Chiefs NFL Preseason DFS Picks
Cleveland Browns Targets
Dorian Thompson-Robinson (QB – CLE)
The Browns’ starters will begin the game. But it doesn’t sound like they’ll play more than a quarter. Therefore, it’s Dorian Thompson-Robinson’s time to shine. He’s added 348 yards passing with two touchdowns in the preseason. He’s trying to earn that backup spot for Deshaun Watson and is competing against Kellen Mond. Thompson-Robinson has outperformed Mond recently. He added 164 yards on 13 completions last weekend. He also added four carries for 18 yards. Mond can’t run like DTR.
Demetric Felton Jr. (RB – CLE)
Felton earned one fewer carry than John Kelly Jr. against the Eagles last weekend. But that didn’t stop him from earning over 5.1 yards per rush. Meanwhile, Kelly added eight carries for only 20 yards. Felton continues to impress over Kelly and should earn more carries in this game.
Austin Watkins (WR – CLE)
Austin Watkins saw 14 targets against the Eagles last weekend. He only caught seven of 14, but the volume alone is crucial. Watkins Jr. added 139 yards on those seven catches, averaged 19.9 yards per catch, and scored a touchdown. In the previous game against the Commanders, Watkins saw eight targets, caught six, and added 71 yards. He will be a problem in this league for years to come. Watkins is just getting started.
