The Denver Broncos travel to face the Carolina Panthers in a matchup between the two teams in lost seasons. Which team will win in an attempt to build momentum for the 2023 season?
Today we look at the best DFS plays from this intriguing match-up.
Best quarterback picks
Cash Games: Russell Wilson, QB, Denver Broncos (DraftKings $5.4K, FanDuel $6.7K)
Will Russell Wilson ever turn it around in 2022? One of the final chances for the future Hall-of-Famer to remind us what kind of QB he is.
Tournaments: Sam Darnold, QB, Carolina Panthers (Draftkings $4.9K, FanDuel $6.4K)
Playing Sam Darnold in his first game back is wild. Playing Sam Darnold in his first game back against a terrific Broncos secondary is lunacy. At least you know most DFS players won't take the plunge on Darnold.

Best running back picks
Cash Games: Latavius Murray, RB, Denver Broncos (DraftKings $5K, FanDuel $6.2K)
Latavius Murray is the only chalk player in the game. Chase Edmonds is injured and will miss this game, while the Broncos were so tired of Melvin Gordon III that they released him. Latavius Murray is the only game in town for the Broncos and should soak up the action in this one.
Tournament: D'Onta Foreman, RB, Carolina Panthers (DraftKings $5.5K, FanDuel $6.7K)
D'Onta Foreman has taken control of the Panthers' backfield since Christian McCaffrey was traded to the San Francisco 49ers. Chuba Hubbard will be in the mix, but Foreman should stay in the lead. If there is one way to defeat the Denver Broncos, it is on the ground.
Wide receivers and tight ends
Cash Games: Courtland Sutton, WR, Denver Broncos (DraftKings $5.6K, FanDuel $7.1K)
It hasn't been pretty for Courtland Sutton. Even in games where you would think that Sutton would have his breakout, he has struggled. The Denver Broncos will be without receivers Jerry Jeudy and KJ Hamler again. Courtland Sutton is necessary if the Broncos hope to have any explosive plays.
Tournament: Greg Dulcich, TE, Denver Broncos (DraftKings $3.7K, FanDuel $5.3K)
It has been quite an up-and-down rookie season thus far for the Broncos TE. Greg Dulcich began his rookie season on the shelf, falling away from fantasy relevance. Once Dulcich was cleared, not only would he be inserted into the offensive game plan, but he took starters' minutes, seeing an appealing target share.
Things haven't gone so smoothly for Greg Dulcich recently, as the overall horrendous play of the offense has bogged down the promising rookie. Many DFS players, who were formerly on Greg Dulcich, have now jumped ship, providing an opportunity to jump in and gain leverage on the DFS tournament field.
