Titans vs. Dolphins Picks, Lineup Tips for DraftKings Daily Fantasy for MNF

The base of any Monday night daily fantasy football lineup is easy to fill out.

Tyreek Hill is once again expected to be the star of the Miami Dolphins offense at home against the Tennessee Titans.

Hill comes into Monday with three straight 100-yard performances and with a touchdown in seven of his last eight games.

DFS players would be foolish to not include Hill in some capacity because of his output inside the Dolphins offense.

Filling out the rest of any DFS lineup from the Titans-Dolphins game is the tricky part of the equation.

Both teams possess strong rushing defenses, which means it could be a slow night for Derrick Henry, Raheem Mostert and De'Von Achane.

If that is the case, the depth of each passing attack will be tested, and that is where you can find successful players for the back end of your DraftKings lineups.

Build Around Tyreek Hill

Hill has been a fantasy points machine for most of the season.

The NFL leader in receiving yards and receiving touchdowns must be a part of your DFS lineup in some capacity.

A good amount of DraftKings players will have Hill in the captain role to take advantage of his expected high output.

Hill eclipsed the 100-yard mark on eight occasions this season and he has eight or more receptions in six of his last seven games.

Hill would have likely extended that reception run to seven straight games if the Dolphins were not so far ahead of the Washington Commanders in Week 13.

Miami is facing a Tennessee defense that just gave up its highest pass-yard concession of the season in an overtime loss to the Indianapolis Colts.

Hill should take advantage of the average secondary and cash in for a ton of fantasy points. He will likely lead all players in the Titans-Dolphins game in fantasy points, which is why he must be on your roster.

Be Wary of Running Back Matchups

All of the top running backs in the Titans-Dolphins game could be in for a struggle.

The Titans allowed a single 100-yard concession on the ground in three of their last four games, while the Dolphins have one triple-digit rush-yard allowance in their last six games.

Derrick Henry, Raheem Mostert and De'Von Achane will still pick up some yards on the ground, but they may not finish with massive totals.

Tennessee will try to utilize Henry early to manage the clock and keep the ball away from the Dolphins offense.

Washington ran for 138 yards on the Dolphins defense last week, so there is some hope the Titans can achieve a similar total with Henry.

Henry's biggest contribution to DFS lineups may be through touchdowns. He scored twice in Weeks 12 and 13 and will be called upon in the red zone if Tennessee gets into that area of the field.

Achane might be the better of the two Miami running backs to choose because of his potential role.

The rookie was used to close out the win over Washington after the passing offense thrived in the first half.

Miami could follow a similar strategy on Monday to break open the lead and then keep the ball throughout the second half.

Achane carries a higher DraftKings salary than Henry and Mostert, but he could be worth it if the Dolphins stick to the same game script.

Find Value in Titans Passing Attack

The best value plays for DFS lineups come from the Tennessee passing attack.

With Miami, you know exactly what you are getting from a fantasy standpoint. Hill and Jaylen Waddle will take up a majority of the targets, while Achane and Mostert will split the carries.

There is more room for variance inside the Titans passing game behind De'Andre Hopkins.

Tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo was second to Hopkins in targets last week with six. He caught three of those passes from Will Levis.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine was third on the Titans roster with three targets, but he only hauled in one pass for 28 yards.

Westbrook-Ikhine could be Tennessee's deep-play target on Monday, so he would be worth a look as a final DFS roster piece. Chris Moore and Trevon Wesco each had a target from Levis as well last week. Either player could be a deep sleeper target.

Tyjae Spears is worth a look as well since he is the pass-catching running back. He hauled in four catches on six targets last week and he would be the best value play among the running backs with a $6,200 DraftKings salary.
