Happy Black Friday, RotoBallers! We get an AFC West division showdown as the Kansas City Chiefs (10-1) take on the Las Vegas Raiders (2-9). We don't have much for injury news, as both sites still show Aidan O'Connell and Isiah Pacheco are on the IR, but barring any last-minute setbacks, they both are likely to play and start.
We have been pretty successful so far with these showdown slates and hopefully, that trend continues from last year into this year. Thanks to today's advanced analytics, I'll do my best to provide you with as much in-depth analysis as possible regarding positional matchups and try to put some extra change into your pockets!
I will provide you with daily fantasy football picks on FanDuel and DraftKings for the Raiders vs. Chiefs NFL DFS showdown slate on November 29. These NFL DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players and elite options to lower-priced players and value picks on both DraftKings and FanDuel. If you have any questions, you can follow me on X @DFSKoby and fire away, or sign up for a premium RotoBaller NFL package and chat with me and other NFL DFS analysts whenever you'd like!
MVP/Captain Plays
Patrick Mahomes - QB, Kansas City Chiefs - $16.2K (DK), $16K (FD)
Key Stats
- 2024 Stats: 266 completions, 2,673 passing yards, 18 touchdowns, 11 interceptions
I don't think you can go wrong with Mahomes. He has been one of the most consistent players on the team, and in its last outing against the Raiders, he finished with just under 20 FP. The Raiders are giving up the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing QBs this season. Even with Pacheco returning, I expect Mahomes to still score well.
Brock Bowers - TE, Las Vegas Raiders - $15K (DK), $13K (FD)
Key Stats
- 2024 Stats: 99 targets, 74 receptions, 744 receiving yards, three touchdowns
The lone bright spot of this lowly Raiders team. Brock Bowers has been one of the best tight ends this season and has been consistent. This week, he will have Aidan O'Connell at QB, and in O'Connell's best start in Week 6, Bowers finished with nine receptions on 10 targets.
Bowers has finished with double-digit fantasy points in all but three games this season. The Chiefs' weak spot has been TEs this season, too, as they have given up the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing TEs.

DFS Flex Plays
DeAndre Hopkins- WR, Kansas City Chiefs - $8.4K (DK), $11K (FD)
Key Stats
- Last Five Game Stats: 27 targets, 22 receptions, 235 receiving yards, three touchdowns
DeAndre Hopkins has started to build some solid chemistry with Mahomes. He has been targeted 24 times in the last four games, and now gets one of the best matchups of the season as he will be lining up against Decamerion Richardson, who is giving up the second-most fantasy points per route run this season at .44!
Jakobi Meyers - WR, Las Vegas Raiders - $8K (DK), $10.5K (FD)
On the other side of the field, we have Jakobi Meyers, who, since Davante Adams left, has become the lead WR target for the Raiders. He has been targeted 58 times across the last six games and caught 39 of them. Along with Bowers, Meyers should be targeted heavily and be two of the top performers for the Raiders.
Other Flex Options: Isiah Pacheco, Xavier Worthy
DFS Value Plays
Noah Gray - TE, Kansas City Chiefs - $3.6K (DK), $8.5K (FD)
Noah Gray has become one of Mahomes' favorite targets in the last two weeks, especially in the red zone. Gray has had four touchdowns in the last two games and caught eight of nine targets in that time. The Raiders are also giving up the third-most fantasy points to TEs this season and have given up seven TDs to them.
Aidan O'Connell - QB, Las Vegas Raiders - $8.8K (DK), $5K (FD)
This is specifically a FanDuel play. He is min-priced! FanDuel was caught sleeping on this one and we don't need O'Connell to provide too much. His biggest value is his price, as we can fit the top guys on the slate along with him. The Raiders will have to throw the ball, so O'Connell should have no issue hitting decent value.
Other Value Plays: Ameer Abdullah, Daniel Carlson, Justin Watson
Enjoy your week, and good luck, everyone!
