NFL FanDuel Pricing Reaction: 8 Underpriced Players for Week 1
FanDuel's prices for Week 1 are out. A month away from the start of the season, which players appear to be the best value plays?

Eli Manning, QB, New York Giants

FanDuel Price: $7,200

Eli Manning enters Week 1 as just the 19th-most expensive quarterback, despite finishing 2015 10th in FanDuel points and being drafted as the 10th quarterback heading into the 2016 season.

Manning saw his price fluctuate from $7,200 to $8,300 last season -- with an average price of $7,700 -- so it's certainly a surprise to see him at just $7,200.

Drew Brees and Derek Carr appear to be early candidates to be the chalk at the position. Vegas pegs the matchup between the Oakland Raiders and New Orleans Saints to be a shootout, giving it an over/under of 50 points, the highest of the opening weekend.

However, Manning and the Giants matchup with the Dallas Cowboys currently has an over/under of 49.5 points, making Manning an attractive option.
