Fantasy football week 7 is here already and it is almost Halloween. Let’s quit wasting time with small talk and get right to the fantasy picks of the week.
FanDuel 10/25/15 NFL 1pm Main Event Best Lineup
I think the Stafford – Megatron combo is still good this week. History tends to point to them playing better at home and in multiple game sets. Both are happening this week. Also, look for TB to continue to run the ball hard as well, leaving Martin a great pick again this week. Also, if you can get Larry Fitzgerald in your lineup or Brown for that matter, against the lowly Ravens pass defense you should benefit. I also like Benjamin to find the end zone this week for the Browns.
Update: With Gates questionable with a knee issue, you might want to think about Barnidge for the Browns at TE. Keep an eye on Gates!
| Position | Name | Team | Salary | Projections |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| QB | Matt Stafford | Lions | 7400 | Finally, they are moving the ball! They are at home again this week and I like the chemistry with Megatron to continue. |
| RB | Todd Gurley | Rams | 7400 | I think Gurley will be a great home play against average competition. Which is what we have this week. |
| RB | Doug Martin | Bucs. | 7200 | The Bucs are POUNDING the ball on the ground and Martin is having a year like they thought he would when I drafted him #2! |
| WR | Calvin Johnson | Lions | 8400 | Combo with Stafford to try to win some tournament money this week. |
| WR | Larry Fitzgerald | Cards. | 7800 | A great value here going against a terrible Ravens pass defense. |
| WR | Travis Benjamin | Browns | 6600 | He is getting better and better… I was wrong about him. |
| Kicker | Nick Novack | Texans | 4600 | Meh… affordable and they can move the ball some. |
| TE | Antonio Gates | Charg. | 5800 | I am surprised he is valued this low in this pass happy offense… |
| Defense | KC | Chiefs | 4600 | Going up against a 3rd string QB or a hobbly Big Ben. |
| Total | 59800 | |||
I really like this lineup for 50/50 contests, but with the QB / WR combo it could be great if Calvin can get 2 TD and 125 yards or so.
Let us bring home some top finishes this week!
Hey Johnny I enjoy reading your fantasy advice. What do you think of Marquis Williams vs. UVA as an option ? Thanks !
Hi there,
I like Marquise Williams, but for my FanDuel Lineup I already have E.Hood at RB for UNC. I do not like to overload an average team like UNC. They are not Baylor, but still could have a good game. Overall, he is a good play, but he is kinda pricey at $9300. They should score 30 – 40 points against UVA, who has a terrible defense. You could do much worse than Marquise. Good luck.
