8 NFL FanDuel Value Plays for the Wild Card Round
Lamar Miller is underpriced with the Texans boasting this weekend's highest implied total. Which other value options are worth a look on this weekend's two DFS slates?

Sunday Wide Receiver: Taylor Gabriel, Chicago Bears

Price: $5,000

On the other side of that Eagles game, the Chicago Bears' 23.5-point implied total is the slate's highest.

Taylor Gabriel averaged a reasonable 5.8 targets per game this season, and his volume is more appealing than that might make it look on the surface thanks to his hefty 11.5-yard average depth of target (aDOT).

He accounted for only 18% of the Bears' targets in games he played this season, but Gabriel saw 23% of their air yards.

The Eagles rank a middling 17th against the pass, per our metrics, so while deep targets lend themselves to volatile fantasy production, Gabriel finds himself in a good spot for a boom week.

Looking at only the wideouts priced below $6,500, Gabriel is our top point-per-dollar value at the position.
