Fanduel NFL Week 3: K's to Target

PO = Projected Ownership % based on Thu-Mon, 16 games.
Only the highest PO players are listed.

Chalk
Giorgio Tavecchio - $4800, 12.89% PO

• Week 1's leading kicker is scheduled to have the highest OVER/UNDER for this week. He's also the highest and only double digit PO kicker this week. This pick not working out can change the outcome of a lineup DRAMATICALLY. He's leading the NFL with 14 FPPG this year.

Pivot
Matt Bryant - $4900, 7.84% PO

• Well if you can't take the highest projected OVER/UNDER kicker this week, why not go for the 2nd highest? Bryant's projected ownership is also a full 5 pts smaller. He has 13 FPPG this year, pretty safe pick thanks to one of the best offenses in the league.

GPP
Cody Parkey - $4800

• He hit a 54 yd game winner last week and nailed 4 of 4 FGA totaling 15 pts. I said to play anyone against the Jets and that includes Ks.

Fade
Chris Boswell - $4800, 3.16% PO

• Last week's leader in pts for K's had 16 pts and was in the perfect lineup. You going to go for the repeat? Think again. Boswell had no FGs attempted in Week 1 and scored 3 pts off of XPAs. There is no consistency with him and you would be taking a gamble every week. If a cash game is your style, you must stay away from him.

Contrarian
Jake Elliott - $4600, 3.23% PO

• He's a newly signed K that not many people know about and he's playing his home opener against a bad NYG team. He hit 2 of 3 FG last week so he is still unproven to put full trust in. This game could be a blowout based on how bad the G-Men are so scoring opportunities may give the young kicker a chance to help his resume'.

Sleeper
Greg Zuerlien - $4700, 3.37% PO
He's averaging 13 FPPG thanks to a 17 pt Week 1 performance. He followed it up with a 9 pt showing which was average around the league. Tennessee is a balanced team that is not only scoring TDs but giving their K a chance to earn his paycheck.

Bargain ($4500)
Ryan Succop - $4500, 1.25% PO

• Saving possibly the best for last. Succop has 13.5 FPPG this year. I don't know why his price isn't moving nor his OP. Grab him.
