DraftKings Tiers – Conference Championship Sunday

Daily Fantasy

This is our final Tiers slate of the 2022 NFL season. I know, I’m sad too! But let’s make the most of this 2-game Tiers slate!

Note:  I’m adding a Contranian category for each. This means it’s probably not as optimal but you could get huge ownership leverage. I would only play one or two contrarian plays for each contest.

Also note that in Tiers 1-3, you could really make a case for all the players. In Tiers 4-6, I think some players stand out more. So use this as a guide, but if you have a good read or gut feel on a certain player in Tiers 1-3, go with it!

TIER 1:

Favorite: Jalen Hurts
