7 NFL FanDuel Bargains for Week 11
Ted Ginn Jr., WR, New Orleans Saints
Price: $5,600
On the other side of that New Orleans/Washington shootout, the Saints boast a huge 29.25-point implied total -- the second-highest mark of the week.
They have been increasingly run-heavy recently, but also have had margins of victory of 20 and 37 points over the past two weeks. While New Orleans is a sizable favorite (7.5 points), there's a huge difference in game flow in a 7-point win and a 20-point one. As our own JJ Zachariason has outlined, the Saints' play-calling has been very different when games are close compared to blowouts.

Ted Ginn Jr. is never going to be a high-volume guy, but he did have at least four targets in four straight games before last week's thrashing of the Buffalo Bills (averaging five per game in that stretch). With his high efficiency and the Saints' likelihood of scoring a ton of points, he's a good way to get high upside and exposure to one of the week's most well-positioned offenses without breaking the bank.
