Top DFS Quarterback Plays for FantasyFeud

Carson Palmer (at DET, $134,500)

Carson Palmer is my favorite QB option this week on FantasyFeud because his price is lower than the other elite options. He is a lot cheaper than Tom Brady, and he has been extremely solid this entire season. Currently, he has 1155 passing yards, 10 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions. The Detroit Lions are not one of the better pass defenses in the league, and with both Larry Fitzgerald and John Brown playing well right now, Palmer should be able to tear them apart. As long as his line holds long enough for him to find the open WR downfield, Palmer will have a great day.

Tom Brady (at DAL, $158,400)

Brady is the most expensive quarterback on the slate this week, and for good reason. He has dominated in his three starts this season, recording 1,112 passing yards and 9 touchdowns. He's arguably the safest quarterback option in the NFL right now, and he also has a great ceiling. He'll get a good matchup against a weak Dallas secondary, and this game is set at the highest over/under of the slate. The Patriots are -7.5 point favorites, and a combination of Brady, Edelman, and/or Gronkowski would be a wise move.  - Justin

 

Top DFS Running Back Plays for FantasyFeud

Le'Veon Bell (at SD, $150,100)

There is just no reason to avoid Le'Veon Bell this week against the San Diego Chargers, or any week for that matter. In his only 2 games so far this season, he has 191 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns. To add to those stats, he also has 14 receptions for over 90 yards in the air. With half of a point per reception, he is going to add around four extra fantasy points to his total just by catching the ball as many times as he does. The San Diego Chargers are also allowing well over 100 yards per game on the ground to opposing offenses, so Bell should have absolutely no problem leading the Steelers offense this week. With Vick at the helm, he will have to.

Anthony Dixon (at TEN, $35,000) 

It's tough to really get behind Anthony Dixon (Boobie Dixon) at this point in his career, but it's also tough to argue with that price tag. It's looking like McCoy and Williams are both going to miss this game, which will give Dixon every opportunity to hit value. He's a clear plodder at the running back position, but he has decent hands out of the backfield and he's likely going to get the goal line work. At the minimum price on Fantasy Feud, Dixon only needs to find the end zone to exceed value. He's an extremely cheap option, and he will allow you to get some of the more expensive studs in your lineups. - Justin

 

Top DFS Wide Receiver Plays for FantasyFeud

Brandin Cooks (at PHI, $90,900)

Brandin Cooks is going to explode this week. I'm very confident about this, but of course, some things just do not turn out the way they should. Cooks has had a less than stellar performance so far this season with 20 receptions for 215 yards and no touchdowns, but he should be able to break his scoreless streak this week. First, Brees looked like his shoulder was hurting him last week, so he will want to throw the ball short early and often against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles hate to cover the short route, and generally, they just allow WRs to run free. Cooks is a quick WR that loves to run short routes. Do you see where I am going with this? Do not be surprised if the New Orleans' disappoint turns in a great performance with over 10 receptions and a touchdown. - Jason

Kamar Aiken (vs CLE, $65,400) 

Aiken is coming off a big game against the Steelers, in which he recorded 5 catches for 77 yards and 1 touchdown. He's going to be the clear number one option for the Ravens, as Steve Smith Sr. will likely be sitting this game out. Aiken has good measurables with a 6'2 body and 4.45 wheels. His price is also extremely low for the amount of targets he should see. He gets a good matchup against Cleveland, who has been one of the worst pass defenses in the NFL, and he's another option that will allow you to pile up on elite talent at other positions. - Justin

 

FantasyFeud Top Wide Receiver Plays

Rob Gronkowski (at DAL, $140,200)

Sorry, Justin. I'm stealing Rob Gronkowski this week. There is just no reason to avoid him against the Dallas Cowboys, especially if you are going to play Tom Brady at the QB position. Gronkowski has over 100 receiving yards in 2 of his 3 games so far this season, and against the Steelers, he only missed that mark by 6 yards. He has scored in every game he has played in, and he is going to score again this week. The Cowboys injury-plagued defense simply does not have the man power to cover "The Gronk." He should go over 100 yards and score at least one touchdown. - Jason

Owen Daniels (at OAK, $58,400)

Jason stole the recommendation of The Gronk, so once again, I'll be providing you with a bit of a value play. Tight end is getting easier and easier to judge as the season progresses. If you aren't going to get Gronk in your lineups, play the tight end that faces Oakland. They have been the worst team in the league against the opposing tight end, as they have been dominated by Eifert, Gilmore, Barnidge, and Bennett. Daniels hasn't been a huge part of the Broncos offense, but Manning is one of the smartest quarterbacks in the NFL, and Daniels will likely be a bit part of the Broncos gameplan this week. Again, I wouldn't stray away from these two tight ends this week. - Justin
