Drew Brees, QB, New Orleans Saints

FanDuel Price: $8,500
Projected Points: 21.8

Drew Brees is back, baby!

Following the worst two-week stretch of his career, Brees rebounded in Week 15 with his second-best FanDuel performance of the season. It was his fourth game this year with four touchdown passes, something no other quarterback has done more than twice this season.

In Week 16, the New Orleans Saints will be playing at home, where Brees is averaging 25.17 FanDuel points per game this season. The Saints have the third-highest implied total (27.75 points) of any team this week, and they will be up against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who are allowing the 13th-most FanDuel points per game to opposing quarterbacks this season.

Tampa Bay held Brees to 7.58 FanDuel points just two weeks ago in the second game of his awful two-week skid, but that game was on the road, where Brees is averaging almost seven FanDuel points per game less than he is in the Superdome.
