Teams on Bye for Week 12: BYE WEEKS ARE OVER!
Values of the Week
Jameis Winston – $10,800 (@ IND)
Watching Winston you can see he is getting it. With Vincent Jackson back to run alongside Mike Evans and Chris Sims only makes this team more of a threat. Having 18+ points in 4 or his last 5 games makes Winston an excellent value in cash games.
Thomas Rawls – $8,800 (vs PIT)
43.5 points in one game is no joke for any running back and the Seahawks are committed to feeding Rawls as much as he can handle against a Steelers team who gave up 96 yards rushing to Latavius Murray and 110 yards to Charcandrick West. Rawls has the makings for a great game in his future.
Matt Jones – $7,700 (vs NYG)
Alfred Morris re-injured his ribs in week 11’s game game against the Panthers and Matt Jones is set-up to get the full load against a Giants team who has little at linebacker and have allowed over 110 yards rushing per game.
Tyler Lockett – $6,000 (vs PIT)
Lockett is a GPP play for those who are looking for some pop in their line-up. Russell Wilson and Lockett are finally getting their timing down and in week 11 they connected for two touchdowns. This week we will see the connection result in more yards to the duo.
Brandin Cooks – $12,000 (vs HOU)
Willie Snead is still banged up and Cooks has taken over as the deep threat on this team. Cooks has scored 14 or more points in 5 of his last 6 games and over 20 points in 3 of those games. Cooks has a great chance to double or triple his price when the Saints get in another shootout.
Gary Barnidge – $9,000 (vs BAL)
Gary Barnkowski is a name everyone knows, but how good has he been this year? Since week 3 Barnidge has only had one game of less than 18 points. Barnidge is an elite value play to at least double your value with potential to do more.
Players To Avoid
Matt Ryan – $12,900 (vs MIN)
The Falcons offense is in a free-fall, with the exception of Julio Jones, and this offensive line is not getting the job done. With a challenging game against an aggressive Vikings defense coming up, I see another rough game in Matt Ryan’s future.
Lamar Miller – $11,400 (@ NYJ)
The Jets have allowed the forth fewest rushing yards and only two rushing touchdowns. Even with the expanded workload of Miller he will have a rough time against this defense.
AJ Green – $14,000 (vs STL)
Scoring only 11.9 points in week 11 and has only three games over 15 points this season. This has not been the season for Green everyone thought it would be and his price only dropped $600.
Travis Kelce – $8,700 (vs BUF)
I would love to be able to say Kelce’s talent is enough to have him overcome what he is dealing with in KC, but it’s not. Having Alex Smith as your quarterback is enough to slow anyone down. In Kelce’s last three games he has only had one game of 10+ points.
Stacks of the Week
Jameis Winston ($10,800) + Mike Evans ($14,000) = $24,800 (@ IND)
If you are riding Jameis then you are riding his WR1. Look for a fireworks show put up against the Colts this week!
Josh McCown ($10,000) + Travis Benjamin ($10,500) + Gary Barnidge ($9,000) = $29,500 (vs BAL)
The last match-up between these two teams led Josh McCown to throw for more than 450 yards and two touchdowns. Weak 12 provides a much weaker Baltimore Ravens team that just lost their starting running back and franchise quarter back for the year. If there was ever a game to play your Browns this is it!
