4 DraftKings Studs to Target in Week 16

Julio Jones, WR, Atlanta Falcons

DraftKings Price: $8,700
Projected Point: 25.3

On a very difficult slate, where putting together a lineup that we can feel comfortable with, it is imperative we find ways to raise our scoring ceiling to separate our lineup from the pack. One way to do so is by stacking your quarterback with one of his primary passing targets. Enter: Julio Jones, alongside Matt Ryan.

Julio has had an incredible season by many standards, truly missing only the touchdown volume. He has a massive 1.91 fantasy point per target rate and is averaging 20.1 DraftKings points per game on the season. He's picked it up a little bit over the last three games, scoring 3.03 points per target and averaging 0.43 points per snap. He's averaging 108.0 yards receiving per game, a full 15 yards ahead of the second place Mike Evans (on the main slate). Julio has a 28.7% target share and a 35.3% receiving yards share.

There is potential for Julio to explode against a team that just lost their starting quarterback and could possibly be checking out in the final two weeks of the season. The probability might not be as high as some of the running backs, but if Julio does finish as the highest-scoring player on the slat,e and you have him paired with Ryan, the likelihood of you having a hefty return on your investment is pretty good.
