3 Daily Fantasy Football Players to Avoid in Week 2
Ryan Tannehill has a tough matchup at New England. What other players should we avoid in Week 2?

Dez Bryant ($7,700 on FanDuel)

Last Thanksgiving, Josh Norman held Dez Bryant to 1 catch for 6 yards in the five plays where Bryant was targeted when he was in coverage. This weekend, the battle is renewed, this time with Norman playing for Washington.

When Bryant isn't locked up with Norman, he'll still have to deal with Bashaud Breeland, so it figures to be a tough day at the office for the Dallas Cowboys' star receiver.

The Cowboys are 2.5-point road underdogs with an implied total of 21.5 points. Oh yeah, and Dallas has a rookie quarterback who doesn't want to force Dez the ball.

Our DFS Projections have Bryant predicted to score 12.2 FanDuel points with a 1.58 FanDuel Value, the second-worst value among receivers priced at $7,700 or higher.

Bryant has been priced at $7,500 or higher on FanDuel seven times since the 2015 season, and he has averaged 7.54 points in those games.

Depsite his immense talent, Bryant has been a player to avoid without a healthy Tony Romo
