Best NFL DFS Picks, Lineups and Stacks for Monday Night Football

One of Keillor's top picks for Monday Night Football is Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield. The former No. 1 overall pick's re-emergence with the Buccaneers in 2024 was a revelation. He threw for 4,500 yards, 41 touchdowns and had a passer rating of 106.8 in 17 games. He also rushed for a career-high 378 yards, showcasing his dual-threat ability.

Through six weeks in 2025, Mayfield continued to improve, posting 1,539 passing yards, 12 touchdowns and just one interception in six games with a 108.5 passer rating. He is now among the top contenders for the 2025 NFL MVP award. See who else you can sign up here.

Part of Keillor's optimal NFL DFS strategy also includes adding Lions running back Jameer Gibbs to the lineup. The former Alabama standout has become a dynamic offensive weapon for the Lions. In 2024, he rushed 250 times for 1,412 yards and 16 rushing touchdowns and added 52 receptions for 517 yards and four receiving touchdowns. That performance earned him his second Pro Bowl nod and established him as one of the league's most effective all-around defensive backs.

He continued his productive run into 2025, carrying the ball 87 times for 390 yards (4.5 yards per carry) and finding the end zone four times while adding 23 receptions for 112 yards. While his average per carry is down slightly from 2024, his explosiveness and versatility still drive his value to the Lions' offense. You can see the rest of Keillor's NFL DFS picks here..
