KICKER
For some reason FanDuel still includes the kicker spot while many other daily fantasy sites have dropped it. I will make it simple for you, play a kicker from an offense you like with a salary that works with the rest of your team.
DEFENSE
Denver Broncos ($4900) – The Oakland Raiders went into last weekend with a dream matchup versus the Chicago Bears and did nothing with it. Yes Derek Carr is developing into a nice young QB and Amari Cooper is the real deal. However, this is a Denver defense that is playing physical and allowing the least amount of passing yards per game in the NFL. Latavius Murray is a solid RB, but Oakland is going to be relying on him heavily to produce as I think the Bronco corners will shut Oakland’s wide outs down.
Others I Like – Falcons ($4500), Packers ($4800)
