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.”

Steelers vs. Falcons NFL Preseason DFS Picks
Pittsburgh Steelers Targets
Warren had one run in the last preseason game, and what a run it was as he went to the house for a 62-yard touchdown. While I don’t expect a run like that, I expect Mike Tomlin to call his number more than once to carry the ball and see if he is worth being more involved in this offense.
Atlanta Falcons Targets
Ridder only saw one series in his first preseason action, but expect him to get more playing time in this matchup. That one series ended with a red zone interception, but that was the only mistake he made in that series, and he looked comfortable in the pocket and made some throws, and had a run.
The first-round pick did not disappoint in this debut with a few great runs. The rookie is already looking comfortable at the pro level, and with the chance of extended playing time in this final preseason game, he’ll put up great numbers.
