Tight Ends Gadsden and Goedert Present Key DraftKings Showdown Decisions for Monday Night Football

[City, State] – [Date] – As the Chargers and Eagles prepare to face off on Monday Night Football, fantasy football enthusiasts are closely eyeing the tight end position for both teams, particularly in DraftKings Showdown contests. Sports Illustrated fantasy analyst [Writer’s Name – extracted name not available in provided text] identifies Oronde Gadsden of the Chargers and Dallas Goedert of the Eagles as potential game-changers in the daily fantasy sports (DFS) landscape.

Gadsden, who emerged as a valuable waiver wire pickup earlier in the season, has seen his production decline in recent weeks. However, the analyst believes his DraftKings pricing makes him an attractive option, despite the Eagles ranking fourth in tight end defense.

On the other side, Dallas Goedert looks to rebound from a quiet stretch, despite a strong touchdown record earlier in the season. The Chargers are generous when it comes to defending tight ends, and that should make for a good matchup for Goedert. The analyst believes Goedert is an overlooked asset, especially given his lower salary, making him a worthwhile consideration for showdown lineups.

The analyst recommends prioritizing Jalen Hurts in lineups and fading Saquon Barkley due to his salary and perceived trajectory. With a relatively low over/under of 41.5 points, a slower-paced game is anticipated, increasing the importance of efficient scoring opportunities.
