3 FanDuel Defenses to Target in Week 7
The Vikings defense is on a roll and faces turnover-prone Sam Darnold and the Jets. What other defenses are worth a look in DFS for Week 7?

Buffalo Bills

FanDuel Price: $3,400
numberFire Projection: 6.7 FanDuel points

We all know how bad the Bills offense has been this season. The defense, though, has been fairly impressive.

Averaging 8.3 FanDuel points per game, the Bills are the ninth-best fantasy scoring defense this season. In three of the last four games played they have scored at least 12 FanDuel points, averaging 12.3 FanDuel points per game since Week 3. Last week against the Houston Texans they racked up seven sacks and three turnovers (two interceptions, one fumble).

Their defensive line has been creating swarms of pressure as they have racked up top-five marks in QB hits (40) and sacks (19). Quarterbacks have struggled to gain yards with pockets consistently collapsing. The Bills have allowed the sixth-fewest passing yards per game (219.0) and the third-lowest passing yards per attempt (6.7).

Facing a Colts offense that has committed the third-most turnovers in the league (eight interceptions, five fumbles), the Bills are worth a flier in Week 7 as they carry the fourth-lowest salary this week.
