WIDE RECEIVER

Will Fuller ($6900) Texans vs. Colts – One thing I love to do is target a player like Fuller, coming off a lovely 1 catch performance, the next week in a good match up. Fuller start out the season playing really well and was playing fairly consistent. A road game in Minnesota is one of the toughest match ups that you can have right now, so I am willing to throw that game out as an anomaly. The Texans offense has been very inconsistent as has been QB Brock Osweiler, however you have to love the match up against the Colts this weekend. The Colts are ranked 28th against the pass and I don’t think Fuller will have a hard time getting open in this one. I like him for a near 100 yard day with a long touchdown.

Brandin Cooks ($7500) Saints vs. Panthers – Cooks got off to a scorching hot start scoring 2 TD’s in week one with 143 yards. Since then he has 112 total yards in the three games following open day and has fallen off the radar in the DFS world. Heading back home this week is exactly what Cooks needs as Brees has been much better over the course of his career. Matter of fact, Cooks scored 6 of his 9 TD’s at home last season and average nearly 15 yards per catch as well. I think conventional thinking is that the Panthers still have a solid defense and that just hasn’t been the truth this season. I love Brees and Cooks and I think they hook up for a long touchdown in this game.

Jeremy Maclin ($6900) Chiefs @ Raiders – The Chiefs have quietly aired it out 42 times per game through their first 4 games. Maclin has received 37 targets, nearly 10 per game and has hauled in 20 catches. He has only scored once, but I love his chances to get in the end zone this week. Again, the Raiders are 2nd worst in the NFL against the pass and if this game ends up shooting out, Maclin is nearly a lock to be heavily involved.

Others I Like – Cameron Meredith ($5400), T.Y. Hilton ($7900), Kelvin Benjamin ($7800)
