NFL DFS, Steelers vs. Giants: Top DraftKings, FanDuel daily Fantasy football picks for Monday Night Football
The New York Giants and Pittsburgh Steelers both have more than 90 years of history with the NFL. Now, the storied franchises will go head-to-head on Monday Night Football at 8:15 p.m. ET to conclude the Week 8 NFL schedule. Russell Wilson threw for 264 yards and two touchdowns in his debut as a starter in Pittsburgh and added a third touchdown with his legs. He’ll look to build off that performance, and could be a popular option for NFL DFS lineups on MNF.
How much exposure should you have to Wilson, and who else in the NFL DFS player pool should you target?

Now, McClure has turned his attention to Steelers vs. Giants on Monday Night Football and just locked in his top daily Fantasy football picks. You can only see his picks and analysis at SportsLine.
Top NFL DFS picks for Giants vs. Steelers
One of McClure’s top NFL DFS picks for Monday Night Football is Giants wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson. Malik Nabers is the clear No. 1 receiver in this New York offense, but Robinson actually leads the team with 67 targets this season with Nabers (60 targets) missing two games with a concussion.
Robinson has been targeted at least eight times in six of the seven games that he’s played this season and he’s on pace for more than 100 receptions this season. His involvement in the offense makes him a high-floor option for NFL daily Fantasy purposes and a player worth significant exposure to on Monday night.
Part of McClure’s optimal NFL DFS strategy also includes rostering Steelers wide receiver George Pickens. Despite a 4-2 record, there were whispers of Pickens’ discontent with the offense’s direction under Justin Fields. With Mike Tomlin switching to Wilson in Week 7, Pickens had five catches for 115 yards and a touchdown in a dominant win over the Jets.
The Pittsburgh passing attack as a whole looked a lot more dynamic with Wilson under center and Pickens showcased his contested-catch abilities on multiple occasions in an offense that’s willing to take shots down the field. Now he’ll match up with a solid Giants defense, but his upside is still high because the offense simply looks more capable of hitting on explosive plays. See who else McClure likes right here.
