8 NFL FanDuel Studs to Target in Week 8
Julio Jones, WR, Atlanta Falcons
FanDuel Price: $9,200
Projected Points: 17.0
Jones currently leads all wide receivers with 15.3 FanDuel points per game. He has gone over 100 receiving yards four times this season, and he even topped 20 FanDuel points in Week 7 without a touchdown.
As we covered earlier, the Falcons have the highest implied total of any team this week for their matchup with the Packers, who have allowed the fourth-most FanDuel points per game to the top wide receiver on opposing teams this year. They have given up eight touchdowns to opposing receivers in six games, and Green Bay has already allowed two opposing wide receivers to top 180 receiving yards.
Green Bay will be without Damarious Randall, which will likely lead to Jones seeing a lot of coverage from Ladarius Gunter, who Pro Football Focus grades as the 63rd-best cornerback in the league this season.
