Ravens vs. Buccaneers NFL Preseason DFS Picks

Baltimore Ravens Targets

Tylan Wallace (RB – BAL)

The Ravens added a ton of depth at WR this offseason, but Tylan Wallace is fighting to make the team, and the Ravens should give him a longer chance to do that this weekend. Wallace only has three targets this preseason, but he’s caught them all, and two have been for TDs. In the preseason, guessing the guy that falls into the end zone is often the GPP winner (thank you for your service, Trey Sermon).

Tampa Bay Buccaneers Targets

Kyle Trask (QB – TB)

Baker Mayfield was named the week one starter, and John Wolford is already ruled out for this game. This makes Kyle Trask potentially the easiest play for me on the entire DFS slate. Trask will (in all likelihood) be the backup with the potential to get starts later on this year, and he was fantastic last week against a strong Jets D. Trask went 20-28 for 218 yards and a TD (106 QBR) and wasn’t afraid to use his legs either (despite losing a fumble). If he played the whole game, I wouldn’t be shocked.

Sean Tucker (RB – TB)

With Rachaad White and Chase Edmonds sitting (and likely to do so again), Sean Tucker made the most of his 19 snaps, rushing seven times for 37 yards (5.3 YPC). Tucker was the next man up after Ke’Shawn Vaughn and would seem to have a leg up on the competition to make this roster as a third back. With Patrick Laird and Ronnie Brown as his competitors, I imagine Tucker will get more work tonight to attempt to solidify his spot.
