There’s no shortage of high-quality contenders as part of the NFL Thanksgiving Day 2022 NFL DFS Player Pool. The likes of Josh Allen, Dak Prescott, Saquon Barkley and Justin Jefferson could be sought after NFL DFS picks for fantasy football daily rosters and NFL DFS stacks. All of these players are some of the most expensive Thanksgiving NFL DFS players around and might require you to scramble to properly fill your lineups. Before making your NFL DFS picks for Thanksgiving Day 2022 on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel, be sure to check out NFL DFS tips, strategy and projections from SportsLine Fantasy Daily Expert Mike McClure.

Top NFL DFS picks for Thanksgiving 2022
One of McClure’s top NFL DFS picks for Thanksgiving Day 2022 is Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs ($8,300 on DraftKings and $9,400 on FanDuel). Diggs is no stranger to playing on Thanksgiving as his Vikings played twice over the holidays while he was in Minnesota and Diggs also played with the Bills on Thanksgiving last year. In the 2021 game, he was named one of the co-MVPs with a 7-74-1 stat line in a win over New Orleans.
This season Diggs has as high a fantasy floor as any wide because in every game this year he has scored a touchdown or had at least 62 receiving yards. A meeting with former divisional rival Detroit awaits Thursday, and Diggs never had a bad showing against the Lions. In seven career games, he’s had at least 75 total yards or a score in each, and this year’s Lions defense could be worse than any they’ve come before. Detroit has allowed the most passing touchdowns and the second-most passing yards, so it’s a staple for Thanksgiving 2022 NFL DFS rosters.
Part of McClure’s optimal NFL DFS strategy also includes lining up Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown ($7,200 on DraftKings and $7,800 on FanDuel). After being sparingly involved on Detroit’s offense in the first 11 games of his rookie season, St. Brown has taken off in the final six games of the year. He caught 51 passes for 560 yards and five touchdowns during that span while carrying the ball seven times for 60 yards and another score.
Despite struggling with injuries early in the season, St. Brown is once again posting impressive numbers. He comes into Thursday’s game against the Bills with 56 receptions for 594 yards and three touchdowns. Over the past two weeks, he’s had 17 catches for 195 yards and now faces a Buffalo defense that has allowed No. 1 receivers to produce 35 catches for 573 yards and five touchdowns in the last five games.
