8 NFL FanDuel Studs to Target in Week 16
Mike Evans, WR, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
FanDuel Price: $8,900
Projected Points: 16.8
The opportunity for a big game has been there all season for Mike Evans as he leads the NFL with 154 targets.
Unfortunately, he has not been able to turn that into consistent weekly production lately. This week, he will be aided by a plus-matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Evans will likely primarily line up across from Ken Crawley, who Pro Football Focus ranks 106th of 120 eligible cornerbacks this season.
Evans did have a slow day against the Saints just two weeks ago, catching 4 passes for 42 yards, but that was the only time in their past six game that New Orleans held the opposing team's wide receivers out of the end zone.
This game is tied for the highest over/under of the week (52.5 points), and Tampa Bay is a 3-point underdog. That bodes well for Evans, who is averaging 15.96 FanDuel points per game as an underdog this season.
