Julio Jones, WR, Atlanta Falcons

FanDuel Price: $8,300
Projected Points: 16.2

Julio Jones will be up against the Kansas City Chiefs, who are allowing more FanDuel points per game to opposing wide receivers than any other team. Did you happen to catch how they did last week?

They gave up 162 yards and a touchdown on seven catches to Emmanuel Sanders on Sunday night. Yeah, that's the same Sanders who had previously only managed more than 90 receiving yards once all season, had not caught more than five passes in a game since Week 5 and had not scored a touchdown since Week 4.

Now, enter Jones, who leads all wide receivers this season with 1,140 receiving yards, and ranks third with 13.1 FanDuel points per game.

He moves around the formation frequently, but primarily lines up on the left side. That will put him up against Sanders' victim, Phillip Gaines, who has lined up on that side 83% of the time this season. Of the 120 cornerbacks Pro Football Focus has graded this season, Gaines ranks 118th.

It's tough to ask for a better matchup than a top-three wide receiver going against a bottom-three cornerback, and it's not something you should pass up.
