FanDuel Salary Changes: Week 6
There were major shifts in some players' FanDuel salaries this week. Should you include those players in your lineups?

Jarvis Landry, WR, Miami Dolphins

FanDuel Price: $6,900
Salary Change: Down $600

The Miami Dolphins' offensive line has experienced major issues this season, culminating in a six-sack disaster last week against the Tennessee Titans. Ryan Tannehill had zero time to throw, the offense couldn’t move the ball, and Jarvis Landry caught just three passes on three targets as a result. With that showing, Landry’s FanDuel salary has now dropped $600 to $6,900.

But this week against the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Dolphins’ offense should get back on track. Rookie lineman Laremy Tunsil will return to the lineup after a freak shower accident last Sunday morning and against a Pittsburgh defense that has just eight sacks in five games, Tannehill should be given more time in the pocket.

Despite Landry's lack of involvement a week ago, he is still averaging 9.6 targets per game and boasts an elite 30.7 percent share of the Dolphins’ passing game targets. Pittsburgh allows 43.2 pass attempts per game, mostly due to opposing teams playing catch-up with their explosive offense. Tannehill has reached 43 pass attempts just once this season, so there will be opportunity for a season-high in that department on Sunday.

More attempts for Tannehill equals more opportunities for Landry, making him a solid option in all formats in Week 6.
