Indianapolis Colts Quarterback - Andrew Luck Primary Target -T.Y. Hilton Secondary Target - Eric Ebron Our system currently has Watson as the top projected quarterback this weekend but I am not completely buying it. As division rivals, these two teams played each other twice this year with each team getting a three-point win on the road. In those games, Luck was easily the best fantasy option racking up 863 passing yards with six touchdowns. Houston comes into this game ranked #1 in DVOA against the rush but #18 against the pass so it makes sense to go this route for both the team and for fantasy. Pair Luck with T.Y. Hilton who hasn't been practicing all week but is probable to play and the industry doesn't seem to be too worried as he currently leads all tags on FanShareSports. He was also a beast in the two meetings this season catching four of six targets for 115 yards in the first game and nine of 12 targets for 199 yards in the second game. You can also consider Eric Ebron in a stack with Luck as he finished the regular season 10th overall in red zone targets(21) and second in red zone touchdowns(11). While Watson is currently #1 in raw projected points for quarterbacks, Luck leads the projections in pass attempts giving him big-time upside on this small slate. The Colts will be a very chalky team to stack this week but there are plenty of ways to differentiate yourself with the rest of your available slots. Philadelphia Eagles Quarterback - Nick Foles Primary Target - Zach Ertz Secondary Targets - Alshon Jeffery, Nelson Agholor This stack is the contrarian option this week as it appears most people will be playing the Bears defense and for good reason, as they allowed the third fewest yards per game overall(299.7), the least amount of points per game(17.7), and finished with the third most sacks(50). For the Eagles to have any chance in this game, Nick Foles will have to show some more of his playoff magic and put up a monster game. He is cheap on both sites, has 300+ yard/3+ TD upside and will likely be...

We've got you completely covered. nbsp; Los Angeles Chargers (2.5) vs. Baltimore Ravens (-2.5) Sunday's slate starts off with a rematch of a week 16 game that both teams likely viewed as a must-win. The Ravens got it done, containing the Chargers' high-flying offense to just 10 points. They managed to relegate Melvin Gordon to just 53 total yards on 15 touches. Yikes. The Ravens didn't fare a whole lot better from a fantasy perspective, scoring just 22 points. Lamar Jackson was not awful, and "Mark Andrews" had 83 yards and a touchdown on 2 targets, but there isn't a whole lot to look at here. Still, it's very tough to ignore a game altogether on a two game slate. Let's do our best, shall we? Melvin Gordon FD 8400 DK 7700 Opponent BAL Proj Points FD - 11.84 DK - 12.93 It's telling that Gordon is showing up in our optimal lineups even on such generally terrible projections. The reason is pretty simple: the other teams on the slate are Philly, Chicago, and Baltimore. None of those teams really boasts a fantasy relevant running back on a normal slate, and as bad as Gordon was in his previous meeting with Baltimore, he's many cuts above the other guys on this slate. There are obviously plenty of scenarios where Gordon just goes off here, too, as I believe we see the Chargers go all in on him here. In the middle of the season Gordon was touching the ball 24-26 times per game, and the combination of his ankle and the Chargers being pretty well situated in the playoff picture saw those touches decline toward the end of the season. Now that every game has the potential be the last one of the season, we'll see Gordon from beginning to end in this one. Keenan Allen FD 7700 DK 6900 Opponent BAL Proj Points FD - 12.99 DK - 15.95 Throwing to Keenan Allen was basically the only profitable play the Chargers could run against the Ravens in week 16, if only barely. He turned 8 targets into 5 catches and 58 yards, and while that's nothing to write home about, the Chargers clearly thought he was their best option...

We've got you completely covered. Indianapolis Colts (2) vs. Houston Texans (-2) Key DFS plays Deshaun Watson FD 8400 DK 6700 Opponent IND Proj Points FD - 20.73 DK - 21.15 Watson is the most expensive quarterback on the slate and for good reason. He finished the season as the fourth-highest fantasy scoring quarterback and the Texans come in with the most projected points (25) of the four-game slate. Watson was a competent passer this season (69% completion percentage) with over 4,000 yards despite playing much of the season with a WR group decimated by injuries (outside of Hopkins). His ability to run gives him the ideal cash game floor and he had the third-most quarterback rushing yards on the season (551). The debate will probably about which quarterback is *worth* paying up for on this slate between Watson and Luck. I'll take Watson for the aforementioned running threat and slight edge in team points. DeAndre Hopkins FD 8800 DK 8700 Opponent IND Proj Points FD - 20.78 DK - 23.93 Hopkins is the clear big-money wide receiver to target on this slate and I suspect he’ll have overwhelming cash ownership. He’s had five-straight double-digit target games, capped by a 16 target Week 17 in which he finished with 12 catches for 147 yards against Jalen Ramsey and the Jaguars. He has 115 (2nd in the league) catches on the season without a single drop. He also finished with the second-most receiving yards (1572). No other receiver on this slate is even close to Hopkins in terms of fantasy floor. You have to pay top dollar on both sites, but it’s worth the salary cap hit. Lamar Miller FD 6400 DK 4900 Opponent IND Proj Points FD - 12.61 DK - 13.38 After sitting out Week 16 with an injury, Miller was back to carrying the workload for the Texans in the final game of the season. He ran the ball 17 times for 56 yards against the Jaguars and saw a couple of targets in the passing game. He finished the season 15th in running back usage (17.5 touches per game) and finished with his best yards per attempt (4.6) since 2014 when he was with the Dolphins. The Colts were good...
