7 FanDuel Bargains for Week 9
Exploring seven low-priced value options to help you build your FanDuel lineup this week.

Brandon LaFell ($5,200)

Brandon LaFell hasn't exactly set the world on fire since returning from injury in Week 7, but his time is coming.

He's seen 15 targets already (and they've been consistent through the small sample with 8 in his first game and 7 in his second), and his numbers have been bad largely due to a terrible 40% catch rate. Through a small two-game sample, we can likely write off the catch rate issues as variance and can probably expect it to be closer to the 62% he posted last year moving forward.

There are also going to be a ton of points to go around in the New England offense this week. Vegas projects them for a huge 33.5-point total, 5 points higher than anyone else is projected. LaFell is probably the receiver in this price range most likely to find the end zone this week, and his target numbers give him a fairly high floor as well.
