Expert DFS Picks
Daily fantasy expert Mike McClure, a professional DFS player with more than $2 million in career winnings, has identified his top picks for the single-game slate. McClure's projection model simulates every snap, accounting for matchups, statistical trends, and injuries.
One of McClure's top selections is Caleb Williams, who has an over/under of 227.5 passing yards. Despite Seattle's formidable defense, Williams has thrown for over 300 yards in each of his last two games since returning from a hamstring injury, including an 83% completion rate against the Falcons in Week 6.
McClure is also building lineups around Jaxon Smith-Njigba. The Seahawks receiver leads the NFL with 867 receiving yards and eight touchdowns, commanding a target share near 36%. His receiving yards over/under is set at 99.5, the highest among pass catchers in this matchup. While Chicago allows the 16th-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers, Smith-Njigba's volume makes him a must-roster option regardless of matchup.
McClure has identified an additional undervalued player who could deliver significant returns on Monday night. Full lineup details and the sleeper pick are available through his subscription service.
