NFL DFS Showdown SZN 2026: Bears vs. Bucs

A recurring article that breaks down the night’s NFL DFS Showdown contests at Paydirt

Welcome to this edition of the NFL DFS Showdown SZN breakdown. The aim of this post is to look at the best players to build around and constructions to focus on for the night’s NFL DFS showdown contests on Draftkings. We run the Portfolio Manager to see what differences we can find in projected ownership and likely exposure. Likewise, we take into account the whole lineup’s projection and ownership.
