7 NFL FanDuel Bargains for Week 8
Michael Thomas is averaging 9.5 targets per game over the last three weeks, and that kind of volume is rare for a player at his salary. Which other low-cost options could put up nice numbers this week?

Mike Gillislee, RB, Buffalo Bills

FanDuel Price: $5,900

While Lesean McCoy ended up getting the green light last week, he re-aggravated his hamstring injury and hasn't been practicing this week. That would leave Mike Gillislee as the top dog in the Buffalo Bills' backfield, assuming McCoy sits.

The Bills have been the third-most run-heavy team in the NFL, and McCoy was averaging 21.3 opportunities per game before his injury-shortened Week 7 outing.

The New England Patriots make for a tough matchup for Gillislee this week, but his price tag is low enough that you can afford to look past the matchup and focus on his 20-touch upside, making him a great bargain.
