Fantasy Football (1 Week): $1,075 In Prize $

We are going to take another shot at Fan Duel this week. There are only 8 teams so I am going to list mix of players that I would start and think will exceed their salaries. Here is the link to join the JetNation league, with $1,075 in prize money this week. Remember to enter by Saturday afternoon if you want to join.

• Andrew Luck $9,700  He is the most expensive player but he always excels at home and should have a huge game minus a zero running game.
• Ben Roethlisberger $8,500-  The matchup is perfect and with Bell looking shaky, I can see 60 passes to keep them in it.
• Jeremy Hill $7,400-  He will get 20 plus touches while the Colts struggle with physical backs.
• Justin Forsett $7,000-  The Steelers continue to struggle on defense,  I may be in the minority but I see a shoot out.
• Joique Bell $6,600-  He has a pretty low salary against a bad defense but I am not 100% on the train as I cannot tell how the touches will be assigned.
• Jonathan Stewart $6,500-  In the last 5 weeks the Arizona run defense has fallen off the map and he is playing the best football of his career.  The Panthers have also move to a Seahawks like offense.
• Dan Herron $5,400- He looks to be the RB1 and has a nice price but I would temper expectations.
• Theo Riddick $4,800- I think they will throw more than normal and he is entrenched as the 3rd down RB.
• Stepfan Taylor $4,700- This is the cheapest RB who should get at least 10 touches.
• Antonio Brown $9,200-  The best WR in the NFL is as easy as it gets against a bottom pass defense.
• Torrey Smith $7,100-  We continue our theme of listing a ton of offensive players in this game.
• Golden Tate $6,800-  He has not been great lately but I have a hunch that Lions will open up the pass game.
• Terrence Williams $5,300- A cheap option who seems like he scores a TD every game plus Lions are much weaker against the pass.
• Marcus Wheaton $4,900-  The best bargain in the under 5,000 range.
• Justin Tucker $4,800-  Just love everyone in this game.
• Mike Nugent $4,700-  I see this one as pretty high scoring game as well.
• Carolina defense $5,500-  This is the easiest pick of the week.
