Justin Herrera uses the RotoViz tools to bring you the top plays and some under-the-radar options for the FanDuel main slate.
This weekly article is a deep dive into some guys with exploitable matchups, something to prove, or who are just great deals on FanDuel. The goal is always to help you win money on a week-to-week basis. Barring that, at least you can have some fun playing DFS, in which case this article can help you get started on the road to profitability. Each week I’ll use the RotoViz tools to suggest top plays and sleeper picks for each position on FanDuel.
Quarterbacks
MUST-HAVE: BROCK PURDY – $8,400
Brock Purdy will have a shot this week to play in a shootout against the reinvigorated Arizona Cardinals. The 49ers are going to be without some key defenders on Sunday and that should reflect on the score. Purdy has been balling out and playing like an MVP with his vaunted offense. In fantasy, he’s scored 20 points in five of the last six games. The Cardinals have allowed the second-most fantasy PPG to QBs this year with 23. There’s a good chance Purdy can get you at least that, making him a must-have on FanDuel.
SLEEPER: MATTHEW STAFFORD – $7,200
Matthew Stafford has been the fire behind the Rams’ most recent playoff push and the week they get a Commanders team that might be cashing in the chips this week. There’s a lot to like about this matchup, but most important is the fact that Washington has given up top-10 performances to the last four QBs, including Tommy DeVito. Stafford is also coming into this game with three straight top-10 performances. You’ve got to love the value, especially considering the price differential between him and Purdy. Stafford is the best QB sleeper on FanDuel for Week 15.
