FantasyDraft - DFS Quarterback Pick
Russell Wilson at SF ($13,500)
Wilson struggled a bit at the beginning of the season, but he has been playing at an elite level over the last five weeks. Over that span, he is averaging 315.8 passing yards and 2.6 passing touchdowns per game. He is also averaging a 44.4/0.2 rushing line over that span. He gets an elite matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, who are allowing 246 passing yards per game. They have also allowed 18 passing touchdowns this season. Wilson makes an elite option in all leagues this week.
FantasyDraft - DFS Running Back Picks
Le'Veon Bell vs GB ($17,700)
It is tough to avoid Bell in any matchup this season. He is a true workhorse, averaging 88.6 rushing yards and 0.5 rushing touchdowns per game this season. He is also averaging a 4.9/30.8 receiving line on 6.2 targets per game. He has seen at least 20 touches in every game since week two. He gets a matchup against the Green Bay Packers, who rank 22nd in the NFL against running backs this season. Bell is a consistent option that also comes with elite upside.
Tevin Coleman vs TB ($10,900)
Coleman's value will be based on Devonta Freeman's health. If Freeman is out, Coleman is an elite option. If Freeman is playing, Coleman should strictly be used in GPPs. In his last two games, which were both without Freeman (for the majority of the game), Coleman is averaging 21 touches per game. He was also able to find the end zone in both of those games. He is not necessarily the most efficient player in the NFL, but he comes with tremendous upside with a low price tag because of his potential workhorse role.
FantasyDraft - DFS Wide Receiver Picks
Jarvis Landry at NE ($11,800)
Landry will likely be a popular pick this weekend, and for good reason. He is a huge part of the Dolphins offense, especially on the road. Through five road games, he is averaging a 7.4/52.6/0.4 line on 12.4 targets per game. He gets an elite matchup against Eric Rowe, who has been one of the worst cornerbacks in the NFL this season. Landry's yards per reception average is far from elite, but he has scored a touchdown in six of his last seven games. He continues to be a target monster, making him an elite PPR option.
Larry Fitzgerald vs JAX ($10,000)
Fitzgerald is the ultimate contrarian play this weekend. Most people will avoid him because of the matchup, but Jalen Ramsey and A.J. Bouye, who are the top cornerbacks for the Jaguars, strictly play on the outside. Fitzgerald, on the other hand, has played the majority of his snaps out of the slot this season. He has also been a major factor in the offense over the last two weeks, totaling 19 receptions for 204 yards and one touchdowns on 24 targets. He will continue to be peppered with targets, making him a boom or bust option against an elite defense.
FantasyDraft - DFS Tight End Pick
Jared Cook vs DEN ($8,000)
Cook has seen an increase in targets recently, as he is averaging 6.5 targets per game over the last four weeks as opposed to 5.7 targets per game over his first six games. He gets an elite matchup against the Denver Broncos, who have essentially been an elite defense against every position aside from tight end. The Raiders could look to exploit that weakness by featuring Cook in the offense this week. He is still fairly cheap, making him a solid option in all leagues.
FantasyDraft - DFS Defense Pick
Jacksonville Jaguars D/ST at ARI (7,100)
The Jaguars defense has been a bit overlooked on FantasyDraft. They aren't very expensive, but they have been playing at an elite level on the road this season. Through five road games, they are allowing only 9.2 points per game, while recording 3.2 turnovers, 6.4 sacks, and 1.0 touchdown per game. The Jaguars are -5 point favorites in a game set at only 37.5 points, giving the Cardinals an implied team total of 16.3 points this week. Outside of Larry Fitzgerald, they do not have any true threats on their offense. Jacksonville can be used in all leagues.
