8 NFL FanDuel Studs to Target in Week 12
Melvin Gordon, RB, San Diego Chargers
FanDuel Price: $8,200
Projected Points: 18.0
As we just touched on, Melvin Gordon currently leads the NFL with 41.61% of his team's opportunities. He also leads all players with 84.48% of his team's red zone carries.
With all of those touches, he is averaging 18 FanDuel points per game, which is good enough for third-most among all running backs this year.
He is also tied for the third-most touchdowns this year among all running backs. He has a great chance to add to that total in Week 12 against the Houston Texans, who have given up at least one touchdown to an opposing running back in seven of 10 games this year.
Houston has also given up over 100 combined yards to eight of the 13 opposing running backs who saw double-digit touches against them, and Gordon has touched the ball at least 14 times in each game.
