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

Seattle Seahawks ($5300) – I don’t always like to pay up all the way for a team defense as I can generally find cheaper ones that are in good spots. However, this week gives us two near no-brainers as the Seahawks will take on the pathetic Rams while the Panthers face the Blaine Gabbert led Niners. The Seahawks are already a great defense and will have no problem stacking the box against Case Keenum and forcing him to throw interceptions. Fire them up as the clear #1 option.
