Fanduel NFL Week 4: WRs to Target Review

Ownership % is from linestarapp.com for the "$150K Thu NFL Rush ($25K to 1st, Thu-Mon)"
PO = Projected Ownership
AO = Actual Ownership
Only the highest PO players are listed.

Chalk (should score high points, will have high AO%)
AJ Green - $8000 - 19.65% PO/24.4% AO - 14.8 pts

• Green put up 4 pts less than he has averaged in his career against the Browns so this was disappointing for his standards. He was the highest owned WR this week so his point total shouldn't have hurt your line ups much.
  Larry Fitzgerald - $6700 - 12.9% PO/17.2% AO - 11.2 pts
• I guaranteed a TD from Fitz but I didn't get much else from him. Take away the TD and Fitz would've had his worst fantasy performances of the year.

Pivot (a riskier chalk play that should have a significantly lower AO%)
Odell Beckham JR - $9100 - 1.53% PO/7.8 % AO - 12.5 pts

• OBJ put up a very good line without a TD this week and it's a shame he couldn't reel one in to the house. If so he would be sitting at a minimum of a 19 pt game.
  Keenan Allen - $7300 - 10.05% PO/ 10% AO - 16.3 pts
• Another WR who put up a great line without a TD, Allen did monster damage to the Eagles secondary.

GPP (should be a lower AO% that has a chance of scoring 2.5X-4X their salary in points)
DeAndre Hopkins - $7300 - 8.07% PO/8% AO - 21.7 pts

• Hopkins flourished with DeShaun Watson having the game of his career this week. His opposite WR, Will Fuller, pulled in two TDs also. Whether Fuller helped/hurt Hopkins and vice-versa is speculative but either way you cannot hate on these numbers.

Fade (typically a good match up and/or projected to have a good game; avoid at all costs)
Willie Snead - $6000 - 0 pts

• I honestly don't even know if Snead played in this game. If he did, bad move on taking him.

Contrarian (typically a bad match up and/or projected to have a bad game; has upside to do the opposite)
Julio Jones - $8400 - 16.35% PO/9.2% AO - 5 pts

• Julio got injured in the first quarter and never came back to the game. Quite a shame for Atlanta.
  Golden Tate - $7100 - 4.26% PO/4.2 % AO - 4.6 pts
• No extra chip on Tate's shoulders this week as he was essentially a non-factor in the Lion's offense amassing only 5 targets for 3 catches.

Sleeper (low AO% player that should get 2X-3X point value based on salary)
Rishard Matthews - $6000 - 6% AO - 6.4 pts

• Matthews underachieved in this game only reeling in 3 of his 7 targets. The injury to QB Marcus Mariota didn't help either.
  Marquise Lee - $6200 - 1.7% AO - 2.8 pts
• Only 3 targets on this day and he had a horrible day on offense that the stats won't showcase. He's still going to have opportunities and squandered what he had last week.

Bargain (< $6000)
Cooper Kupp - $5600 - 4.26% PO/1 % AO - 14.5 pts

• 60 yards and a TD. Kupp lived up to his value and definitely still has a report with QB Jared Goff.
  Devin Funchess - $5400 - 2.58% PO/1.4 % AO - 22.5 pts
• The stud of this game and an explosive showing! Funchess has now raised his value to $6600 as a WR and will no longer be bargain bin worthy. Hopefully you grabbed him while he was low owned.
