We are back for another round of Fan Duel for the divisional round. Last week we hit on some of our cheaper picks so I hoped you took advantage. Here are the best options for this week, pick and choose wisely;
Joe Flacco $7,800- He is the best cheapest options and I think the Pats are a tad better against the run.
Russell Wilson $8,600 – The Panthers have been good against the pass but look at who that was against plus his game is not all passing.
Tom Brady $9,100- He is my top option for expensive Qb;s this week, the Ravens are just so awful against the pass with all their secondary injuries.
LeGarrette Blount $5,700- He will be the RB1 this week, there is a reason he was brought back.
Dan Herron $6,100- He may end up on a ton of lineups and does have fumbling issues but is too much of a bargain to pass up.
Eddie Lacy $8,400- Rodgers is a tad injured and the Cowboys struggled against lesser Rb’s last week, I see a huge workload.
DeMarco Murray $8,900- The Packers have a bad run defense and even if they fall behind, Murray never gets taken out.
Wes Welker $5,200- Manning cannot throw deep so I can see a nice 6-62 line for Welker this week.
Doug Baldwin $5,900- Its a great price for a WR1 and he usually makes a big play or 2 every game.
Julian Edelman $7,300- He should be the WR1 in a week where I see a ton of passes.
Dez Bryant $9,000- I like him the best of all the high priced Wr’s this week in what is expected to be a shootout.
Julius Thomas $5,500- He is not right but with a week off, just his TD potential makes this too much of a bargain.
Rob Gronkowski $7,900- If you go a tad cheaper at WR, this is more than worth the price this week.
Connor Barth $4,700- He is my kicker for the week based on the struggles of the Denver offense and his usage rate the previous games.
Seahawks $5,200- At home against a very shaky QB? I see no other real option this week.
Thanks for reading!
