Defense/Special Teams

High-Cost Option: New York Jets ($3,400)

Picking on the Browns is nothing new this season, and there's nothing wrong with going back to the well with the New York Jets D/ST this week. The Browns have given up 7 picks, 3 fumbles, 21 sacks, and 61 quarterback hits so far this year. They're allowing the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing D/ST units and make for a great play to target once again.

Mid-Cost Option: Kansas City Chiefs ($2,800)

We've seen poor play from Andrew Luck most of the season due to indecisiveness and holding onto the ball too long behind a horrid offensive line. That's led to the Indianapolis Colts giving up the most sacks (25) and third-most quarterback hits (50). Luck also has four picks and three fumbles on the season, and this Kansas City D/ST is more than talented enough to take advantage.

Low-Cost Option: Cleveland Browns ($2,500)

If you're unsure which Jekyll/Mr. Hyde version of Ryan Fitzpatrick will show up this week, the Cleveland D/ST could be in play for you. Fitzpatrick has thrown 11 picks on the season, and the Jets' offensive line ranks top-10 in most QB hits allowed (44). Plus, Nick Mangold is listed as doubtful. That combination of turnovers and pressure is enough to make the Browns worthy of rostering if punting the position.

Other Options: Denver Broncos ($3,700), Philadelphia Eagles ($3,200)
