NFL football is finally back. And yes, the preseason counts as real football. The news. The stories. The starters playing one series. The backups vying for roster spots. The veterans clinging to their football lives playing deep into games. The rookies getting their first taste of real action. It’s all so beautiful. And when it comes to preseason DFS, all of that stuff matters. As DBro says, “preseason DFS is gawd’s game.”

Panthers vs. Giants NFL Preseason DFS Picks
Carolina Panthers Targets
The first two spots of the running back depth chart seem to be locked in, with Miles Sanders as the lead back and Chubba Hubbard as the backup. The decision needs to be made with who’s third, and it’ll come down to Spencer Brown or Raheem Blackshear. Brown was the lead back in the first game, and don’t be surprised if Blackshear gets his shot to lead the way and make his case for the RB3.
New York Giants Targets
Daniel Jones shouldn’t see a snap in this game, and Tyrod Taylor only played two series in the first preseason game, so expect DeVito to get the bulk of the work again. Regarding preseason DFS, it isn’t so much matchup based as it is about who will get the most playing time.
A year ago, Beasley said he was retired but was convinced to keep playing thanks to Josh Allen and continues on in 2023. He’s still playing at an excellent level and caught all four of his targets for 34 yards last week.
