BEST VALUE per position for week 1 2015

~ QB ~

$7,500 Sam Bradford ~ You did see him throw 10/10 and three touchdowns and only play a few drives during a preseason game, correct? Oh, yeah, he's also playing in a game with a very high expected over/under score. Did I mention he plays for a coach who likes a fast paced offense that leads to more scoring opportunities? Oh and to top it off, he is priced on fanduel WAY BELOW his value. This guy has a ton of upside here and I like the odds of him having little downside.

~ RB ~

$6,900 Doug Martin ~ Yes, that guy. You know, the one you fell in love with during his rookie season who hasn't shown us his true form in years. Hear me out .... You have seen his stats from the preseason, right? Did you watch his games? He's on a contract year, maybe he is extra motivated. Plus, the Titans had one of the worst defenses vs the run in the whole NFL last year. Bring it. Maybe Winston being on the team has allowed new holes to open up in the running game. Who knows ..... maybe the hype won't last into the actual regular season. But right now, he's impressing me, and at the low cost on fanduel, I'll be rolling the dice on him in a few matchups.

~ WR ~

$5,500 Davante Adams ~ Everyone knows Jody Nelson was Aaron Rodgers favorite WR..... Welp, he's out for the season. Chicago's entire defense sucks (thats being nice, you did see the last preseason game where they let both #1 and #2 Cincinnati QB's throw endless TD's, right?) Oh, and again, another guy who is playing in a game expected to be a blow out with a large over/under score. Adams is much better priced value option than Cobb is at this junction.

~ TE ~

To be honest, I do NOT like to look for value plays at tight end that much. These guys can be boom or bust and often times will either catch one pass for a touchdown or else end up blocking the whole game. I prefer a reliable TE who gets used often in the passing game. For week 1, after watching all the preseason games, I like the usage that both Greg Olsen and Martellus Bennett have shown and am using them in most all of my lineups.
