7 FanDuel Value Plays for Wild Card Weekend
Breaking down seven value plays on FanDuel to boost your fantasy playoff rosters.

James Jones ($5,700)

James Jones is a really solid value on his own this week, and he also makes for a great stack with my favorite quarterback play of the week in Aaron Rodgers.

Jones leads the Packers with 8.2 targets per game since Week 12, and he's averaging 11 targets per game over his last three games. He's been incredibly efficient this season, with a 0.94 Reception NEP per target that ranks fourth among the 54 receivers to see at least 75 targets. 

As I mentioned when talking about Rodgers, Washington's schedule-adjusted 0.16 Defensive Passing NEP per play is the worst among the teams playing this week. They're also giving up the fifth most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers on the season. At $5,700, Jones is an absolute steal, and my favorite wide receiver value of the week.
