Are you ready to be done yet? You know that I'm not! DraftKings once again screwed up by not including the Washington State - New Mexico game. That would have been a great addition and it still starts late enough at 9:30 Eastern. They need to hire me so I can make these slates! This is just dumb!
We still have two good games to choose from with the big one in Provo that sees BYU host Kansas. We end the night in Sin City with the Aztecs in town.
In this article, I will provide you with my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for DraftKings on 11/16/24, locking at 10:15 p.m. EST. I’ll provide multiple player suggestions for players at quarterback, running back, and wide receiver, aiming to highlight one option at the high, middle, and lower end of the salary scale. Good luck, RotoBallers.

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Quarterbacks
Hajj-Malik Williams, UNLV ($9K)
UNLV’s starting QB Hajj-Malik Williams plays with confidence at home & on the road.
His mother, Veverly, has flown from Atlanta to every game this season even when he wasn’t the starter.
She’s been at all his games since he was 5 years old. ❤️ pic.twitter.com/1menJqN9UW

Williams hasn't been under 27 DraftKings points since he took over the starting job in Week 5. That's the kind of consistency I want when paying top-dollar in DFS. Williams has the highest ceiling on the slate and it's not close.
Jalon Daniels, Kansas ($6.4K)
Daniels has cut down on the mistakes, but he's still not all that efficient. We don't really care if he's not turning the ball over. Daniels also has 192 rushing yards in the last three games. It sure feels like he's (finally) back.
Also consider Jake Retzlaff, BYU ($8.5K); Danny O'Neil, San Diego State ($5.3K)

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Running Backs
Devin Neal, Kansas ($7K)
Record-breaking carry ?
With his 14 yard carry in Q1, Devin Neal has set the KU All-Time rushing record, previously set by June Henley pic.twitter.com/ZxRjIqLxO0
— Kansas Football (@KU_Football) November 9, 2024
Neal has scored at least one touchdown in five straight games and has 13 receptions over the last four games. Kansas is finally growing into the team that they should have been this season. Neal became the all-time leading rusher at Kansas last weekend. That's a big deal! John Riggins and Gale Sayers both played in Lawrence!
Jai'Den Thomas, UNLV ($5.7K)
Williams gets most of the attention, but Thomas has two 100-yard games in the last four weeks. This is another good matchup for Thomas. San Diego State has its worst defense in decades this year.
Also consider: Marquez Cooper, San Diego State ($7.5K); LJ Martin, BYU ($6.4K)
DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Wide Receivers
Ricky White III, UNLV ($8.7K)
Only one Ricky White lll ?@Only1RW pic.twitter.com/6KFLcw41mc
— UNLV Football (@unlvfootball) November 13, 2024
It's easy to forget just how good Ricky White is on this UNLV team. Williams is electric. Thomas is a horse. White is more talented than both of them. He has at least five receptions in seven straight games. You know he's hitting that mark again and should flirt with 100 receiving yards for the fifth time this year.
Jordan Napier, San Diego State ($5.5K)
The Aztecs will be playing from behind once again. That has been a recipe for success for Napier. He has 17 receptions for 142 yards and a touchdown over the last two games. He's going to be a huge part of the offense once again.
Quentin Skinner, Kansas ($3.9K)
Skinner had a big game against Iowa State with 135 yards and a touchdown. That's fantastic production at this price. The bad news? Skinner failed to record a catch against Kansas State in the previous game. Kansas receivers are a crap shoot, but Daniels is playing well right now. We have to have some exposure.
Also consider Darius Lassiter, BYU ($5.8K); Chase Roberts, BYU ($5.1K); Jacob DeJesus, UNLV ($4.5K)
DraftKings CFB Stacks
UNLV
The Rebels get expensive, but there's enough value from both Kansas and San Diego State to make this work. Williams, Thomas, and White are the big three. I don't mind adding DeJesus since he will return this week.
Also consider: San Diego State, Kansas
