Open Book: C.J. Anderson provides invaluable flexibility in FanDuel
Straight cash homie! In his never-ending quest to pay off his kids' college education early, Brad Evans unveils his FanDuel picks for the upcoming week and explains his reasoning behind them. Make that money, #TeamHuevos.
CONTEST RULES AND SCORING
FAKE BUDGET: $60,000
Robert Griffin III, Was, QB (FanDuel Price: $7,400) – With the rust shaken off, RG3 is about to regain his top-10 mojo. Two weeks ago against the Vikings he generally impressed, completing 64.3 percent of his throws for 251 yards and a touchdown. He also chipped in 27 rushing yards. The Pirate Ship has dealt with perpetual leaks this season. In the FanDuel format, six signal-callers have crossed the 20-fantasy-point threshold against Tampa. Given the fruitful home matchup and with a game under his belt, I fully expect RG3 to total 300 combined yards with two-plus TDs.
Jonathan Stewart, Car, RB ($5,100) – Stew Beef is the frozen Stouffer's pizza of daily games – an easy fix, cheap and ultra delicious. Carolina's offensive line, which welcomed back Byron Bell and Amini Silatolu last week, is finally rounding into form. It struggled in pass protection against Philly, but did a decent job for Stewart, opening up a number of run lanes. Against a soft Atlanta front that's allowed the most fantasy points to RBs, the Panthers RB has reasonable odds of posting his best line of the season. Yes, even in a timeshare. Keep in mind, Stewart has gained 75.8 percent of his yards after contact.
C.J. Anderson, Den, RB ($6,500) – Every week in Denver it's like playing the Showcase Showdown. Spin the wheel and the indicator lands on a new number, one fantasy owners are hopeful will provide instant riches. With Ronnie Hillman hobbled for the next 2-3 weeks and Montee Ball a likely sidekick, Anderson, fresh off a 163-total-yard trouncing of Oakland, is the next man up. The Rams have surrendered just 3.61 yards per carry to RBs, but a possible 15-18 touch workload in a Peyton Manning offense is too irresistible. There's a reasonable chance Anderson rips off 90-plus and a touchdown.
Calvin Johnson, Det, WR ($9,000) – It's Megatron folks. His price could be $1 trillion and he would still be worth every peny. Ripping a fantastic Miami secondary for seven catches, 113 yards and a touch last week, he could easily best those numbers in the desert. Arizona has righted the ship somewhat in pass defense, but it's still allowed the eight-most fantasy points to WRs. Patrick Peterson, who's given up a 102.0 QB rating to his assignments, will have to morph into Optimus Prime to prevent Johnson from exceeding 100 yards.
Jordy Nelson, GB, WR ($8,900) – Slide your cheeks into a pair of Jordache. Nelson, blessed with an extremely favorable matchup against Philly, should again contend for No. 1 WR honors. DBs Bradley Fletcher and Cary Williams have shown some improvement, but combined the cover duo has yielded over 15 yards per catch to their assignments. Jordy, who's found pay dirt in six of nine games, could do multiple Lambeau Leaps.
Brandon LaFell, NE, WR ($6,900) – The 13th-best WR in Fantasyland since Week 4, LaFell has transformed into a stats gazelle netting 5.3 receptions and 78.0 yards per game with five TDs during that span. Yes, when Vontae Davis has been on the field, the Colts have surrendered only four scores to WRs, but in a game that promises to deliver crooked numbers galore, LaFell is a marvelous value. Bank on at least 4-65-1 Sunday night.
Dwayne Allen, Ind, TE ($6,100) – The Colt is everything the fantasy community pegged Vernon Davis to be. He rarely wows in the yardage category, but the dude scores a touchdown nearly every week. He's failed to find the end zone only twice in nine games. In a contest loaded with fantasy potential, he's a strong candidate to haul in another 50 yards and a TD. Saddle up.
Adam Vinatieri, Ind, K ($4,900) – The Over/Under on Pats/Colts stands at a fantasy lucrative 57.5. Points will be plentiful in Indy. Great news for all kickers involved.
Denver Broncos D/ST ($5,200) – Shaun Hill stands in the pocket like the Washington Monument – tall, stoic, immovable. That may seem like a good thing, but against Von Miller and Denver's aggressive pass rush, he'll get jackhammered for much of the day.
