Week 2 “Beat Scott” DFS Pick ‘em - 9/20/26

Tom's Still Undefeated, Scott's Still Playing Catch-Up

One week in, and the scoreboard reads Tom 1, Scott 0 — a definitive statement in Week 1 that Scott has yet to answer for. Here's this week's builds heading into Sunday. For those who don’t know, the prior weeks winner picks a starting option for last weeks loser on the following weeks lineup….with the full effort of making their life a little harder. This week, Tom has placed Malik Willis into Scott’s lineup. You’re welcome, Scott.

Color Commentary

Scott heads into Week 2 already down 1-0, and if these two builds are any indication, that gap doesn't look like it's closing anytime soon. There's something almost fitting about Scott getting stuck structuring his whole lineup around Malik Willis this week — a "punishment" pick going up against the 1st-ranked defense in football. Meanwhile Tom's got three real target earners in Jefferson, JSN, and Golden, plus a genuine value FLEX in Vele.
