NFL Week 3: Examining FanDuel Cafe Value

Week in and week out we are diving into the best value plays at various positions. Each week always plays out differently, especially when deciding what areas to spend down on, and where to spend up. While many articles point out the top values, we hope to guide you in lineup construction as well. Pricing on FanDuel generally ties into fantasy point outcome, where on DraftKings, matchups and ownership are baked into the algorithm a little more. Injuries, seasonal changes, and matchups all create value, and here at DFC we break that down for you. Our content is focused on the Main Slates, but you can find me answering questions in the comments, or on Twitter at @JGuilbault11. Premium access grants full list of value plays.

The Lions-Falcons game sits as the second highest total game on the weekend, as Detroit sit as home underdogs. Detroit took a run heavy approach into New York on Monday, but this is a pass-first offense, expected to be trying to keep up with one of the more talented offenses in the league. Getting Stafford below $8,000 is a nice bargain from a team that threw 65% of the time last year. Atlanta's weighted stats with last year bring a defense that has allowed 246 passing yards, and 1.6 touchdowns per game. Stafford has brought a 14 FD point floor in the last eight games, and a 23 point ceiling. The Lions passing game is cheap this week, and the Stafford-Ebron pairing is one of my favorites.
