FanDuel Salary Changes: Week 8
Davante Adams, WR, Green Bay Packers
FanDuel Price: $6,600
Salary Change: Up $1,500
Davante Adams’ salary is up a whopping $1,500 after his Week 7 performance against the Chicago Bears. Can you find the outlier in his 2016 game logs?
| Week | Opponent | Targets | Receptions | Yards | Touchdowns |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | JAX | 7 | 3 | 50 | 1 |
| 2 | MIN | 7 | 3 | 26 | 0 |
| 3 | DET | 2 | 2 | 23 | 1 |
| 5 | NYG | 8 | 5 | 85 | 1 |
| 6 | DAL | 3 | 2 | 34 | 0 |
| 7 | CHI | 16 | 13 | 132 | 2 |
Adams could have turned the corner in Week 7, sure, but the odds are that his huge game was a result of facing a practice squad cornerback for a majority of the game. Adams’ ownership will be inflated this week on FanDuel, but players in this spot have historically underperformed expectations. In the past three seasons, wide receivers with a $1,500-plus salary increase playing in a game with a Vegas total of 50 or higher have reached cash game value (two times their salary in points) just 15 percent of the time.
Let others chase last week’s production.
