DFS Punt Plays

Here are Scott Engel’s favorite value and punt plays at each position for the NFL DFS Week 14 main slate. As a weekly nod to punting, we also salute some of the greatest punters of all time by featuring their photos. This week’s featured punter is Pat McAfee.

NFL DFS Week 14 QBValues and Punts

Jacoby Brissett vs. TB ($6,100): The matchup against Tampa Bay is obviously a friendly one. He is not Nick Foles, so there is less concern of a bad outing. You have to at least consider Brissett as a cash game play and use Zach Pascal with him.

Tom Brady vs. KC ($6,100): He can turn it back on at any time, and will have to do so to keep up with Patrick Mahomes.  

Ryan Tannehill vs. OAK ($5,800): The Titans are winning with Tannehill, and you can win with him too. The Raiders have allowed the fourth-most Fantasy Points Per Game to quarterbacks this season and using A.J. Brown with Tannehill is a good move.

Drew Lock vs. HOU ($5,100): The Texans do have a vulnerable pass defense, and Lock throws a pretty good deep ball. He certainly will not be widely owned.

NFL DFS Week 14 RBValues and Punts

Melvin Gordon vs. JAC ($6,400):  A prime value considering he has recaptured much of his better form and the Jaguars have allowed the second-most FFPG to RBs over the past month.

Benny Snell vs. ARI ($6,100): Great matchup, he could score more than once this week. Steelers will dominate.

James White vs. KC ($5,500): He is really the No. 2 WR on the Patriots. He is gonna be busy this week.

Darwin Thompson vs. NE ($4,000): He is an upside type who can deliver despite the perceived challenging matchup. You have to take the shot in GPPs. Even if many others are on him, he’ll give you a lot of lineup flexibility with the statistical promise.

Bilal Powell vs. MIA ($3,500): He can be unpredictable when asked to handle a larger load, but if Le’Veon Bell is out he should be the Jets’ lead RB and cannot be passed on at the price tag.

DeAndre Washington vs. TEN ($3,000): Could be the featured ball carrier for the Raiders if Josh Jacobs is out, comes at the minimum salary.

NFL DFS Week 14 WRValues and Punts

Jarvis Landry vs. CIN ($6,500): Has 16 catches in his last two games and has all of his five TDs in the last five games.

Courtland Sutton vs. HOU ($6,400): Nice price for a rising star who has admirably overcome QB changes and now may be more of a deep threat with Lock at QB.

James Washington vs. ARI ($6,000): Cardinals always are a team to attack with WR plays, and Washington has emerged as a big-play man in recent weeks.

Zach Pascal vs, TB ($5,500): Great value duo with him and Brissett. The Colts stack is an intriguing one this week.

Jamison Crowder vs. MIA ($5,300): Has quieted down recently, but Jets need to get him involved again to get the offense moving.

Allen Lazard vs. WAS ($4,200): Aaron Rodgers may have found a new downfield weapon that he likes.

Auden Tate vs. CLE ($4,000): Relevant again with Andy Dalton back at QB and Tyler Boyd will draw a lot of defensive attention.

NFL DFS Week 14 TE Values and Punts

Kyle Rudolph vs. DET ($4,400): He has become a consistent TD threat and Kirk Cousins may have a big week.

Ryan Griffin vs. MIA ($4,100): If the Jets offense wakes up this week, which should happen, he will be a top TD target for Sam Darnold.

Mike Gesicki vs. NYJ ($4,000): With Jamal Adams out for the Jets, the matchup looks even better. We still have not seen the breakout game yet, but you can take he chance that it comes this week.

Ian Thomas vs. ATL ($2,500): He is an athletic and heady young guy who just needs more playing time to show what he can do, and he’ll get that chance this week with Greg Olsen out.

NFL DFS Week 14 Valuesand Punt Defenses

Colts vs. TB ($2,400): An underrated unit facing the league’s most turnover-prone QB.

Bengals vs. CLE ($2,100): They have allowed 17 or less points in each of the past three games and Baker Mayfield can certainly turn the ball over.

NFL DFS Week 12 QBValues and Punts

Jameis Winston vs.ATL ($6,200): Yes, he threwfour interceptions last week, but he has also delivered a franchise record fiveconsecutive 300-yard outings. The matchup is obviously a fine one and he is a goodplay in both cash games and GPPs.

Baker Mayfield vs.MIA ($5,900): He may be themost popular play of the week and should be good for three TD passes, as theDolphins have allowed the most in the AFC.

Carson Wentz vs.SEA ($5,600): I do not expecthim to be widely used, but look for him to come through big as the Eagles tryto stay in the NFC playoff race.

Mitch Trubisky vs.NYG ($5,100): Take the shot ifyou roll out multiple lineups. The Giants have allowed the fourth-most FFPG inthe NFC to QBs over the past month.

NFL DFS Week 12 RBValues and Punts

Derrick Henry vs.JAC ($6,900): Last time theJaguars visited Tennessee, Henry had the best outing of his career. Jacksonvillehas allowed the fifth-most rushing yards to RB over the past month.

Joe Mixon vs. PIT ($5,900): He has scored in three of his past four gamesand Mixon has went over 100 scrimmage yards in each of his past two outings.

Miles Sanders vs.SEA ($5,000): He has thenecessary upside for GPPs, and is the ideal candidate to add a spark to thePhiladelphia offense this week.

Bo Scarbrough vs. WAS ($4,200): A very alluring salary saver. Scarbrough ran hard and determined last week and should find the end zone at least once.

NFL DFS Week 12 WR Values and Punts

Jarvis Landry vs.MIA ($6,300): Lock him in, asthis “Revenge Game” script has all the elements for success. Miami has allowedthe most TD catches in the AFC to WRs, and Landry has scored in three consecutivegames.

Jamison Crowdervs. OAK ($6,200): He is amust-start in cash games right now, and will also serve you well in GPPs. TheRaiders are always a friendly matchup for WRs.

Tyrell Williamsvs. NYJ ($5,900): The Jets allowthe most Fantasy Points Per Game to WRs in the AFC and their CB situation isvery shaky.

DeVante Parker vs.CLE ($5,200): He has a qualityfloor now for cash games, and he certainly will not hurt you in a GPP.

Taylor Gabriel vs.NYG ($4,200): He his onlyoccasionally useful, but this is one of those occasions against the Giantssecondary.

Johnny Holton vs. CIN ($3,300): James Washington cannot be trusted in an expanded role, and Holton has some big play promise, too.

NFL DFS Week 12 TEValues and Punts

Ryan Griffin vs.OAK ($4,200): Do the PeterGriffin laugh when he scores against the team that has allowed the most FFPG toTEs in the AFC over the past month and full season.

Dallas Goedert vs.SEA ($3,700): A consistent TDthreat against a defense that has always let up points to TEs.

Vance McDonald vs.CIN ($3,500): The Steelerspassing game is depleted and he should be a prime TD option for Mason Rudolph.

NFL DFS Week 12 DefenseValues and Punts

Jacksonville vs.TEN ($2,800): The Jags had ninesacks last time they faced the Titans.

Carolina vs. NO ($2,200): It is a gutsy move to use the Panthers, but this is a divisional game and could be lower-scoring than expected. Carolina is tied for the NFL lead in sacks and is also tied for third in interceptions.

Here are Scott Engel’s favorite value and punt plays at each position for NFL DFS Week 11. As a weekly nod to punting, we also salute some of the greatest punters of all time by featuring their photos. This week’s featured punter is Andy Lee.

NFL DFS Week11 QB Values and Punts

Tom Brady($6,400 On DraftKings): The recent addition of Mohamed Sanu further bolsters the NewEngland passing game. The Patriots may also get into scoring position enoughfor the GOAT to get in one of his QB sneaks. Yup, I called him “The Greatest”and I am not a New England fan, either.

KylerMurray ($6,100): This a contrarian play, but Murray will have very low ownership,and he is not afraid of the 49ers, as he started to puncture their reputationin Week 9 before Seattle took them down. He scored 23.04 points vs. the Ninersin the first meeting and is a gusty contrarian play and a dual threat.

KyleAllen ($5,300): The popular QB play of the week, he is a must in cash games andyou should build around him in some GPP lineups. He threw for over 300 yards inadverse conditions at Lambeau Field last week and now draws the Falcons.

NFL DFSWeek 11 RB Values and Punts

TevinColeman ($6,100): He has cooled off recently but is set for a rebound week againstArizona’s 24^th-ranked run defense. The Niners need to get Colemanrolling again to put the Seattle loss behind them.

Devin Singletary($6,000):Ride the emotion and the matchup here. Singletary makes his first appearance asan NFL player in front of his hometown supporters in Miami.

BrianHill ($4,800): He has scored in each of his past two games and should assume ahealthy workload. The Panthers allow the fourth-most Fantasy Points Per game toRBs. He’s the obvious salary saver of the week.

MilesSanders ($4,100): This goes against every indicator that suggests New Englanddominance this week. But I am a big fan of this dynamic rookie and he may havea breakout game against a formidable opponent, impressing everyone.

RaheemMostert ($3.400): He should be good to go despite a minor knee issue, and Mostertcan score from anywhere on the field when asked to play a larger role. He mayshine in place of Matt Breida this week. If for any reason he is not available orlimited, pivot to Jeff Wilson Jr. for $100 less.

NFL DFS Week 11 WR Values and Punts

MichaelGallup ($6,500): Gallup has started to show signs of re-emergence recently, and Ilike him to drop more than one big gainer on the Lions secondary while alsofinding the end zone.

D,J,Moore ($5,900): This one is just too easy against the Atlanta secondary. Moore isthe DFS WR lock of the week. WR partner Curtis Samuel is right behind Moore asa must-play at $5,300.

JamisonCrowder ($5,700): The Revenge Game theory can work when the player involved isperforming well. Crowder will impose his emotional will on the Redskins.

TerryMcLaurin ($5,600): This is the week he starts clicking with former college teammateDwayne Haskins against the AFC team that allows the most FFPG to WRs.

MohamedSanu ($5,100): Had a very good game in Week 9 and has solved the Patriots WR2problem. Gotta love the draw against Philly.

RandallCobb ($4,300): Enjoyed his best game as a Cowboy last week and could ride themomentum against the Detroit pass defense.

Deebo Samuel($4,000):Will have to play a premier role in the 49ers passing game against theCardinals. Will be widely owned but you should still use him in GPPs and getcreative around him with other top guys you can afford because of his value.

AndyIsabella ($3,500): He burned the Niners for an 88-yard TD in Week 9. He caught a55-yarder last week.

NFL DFSWeek 11 Tight End Values and Punts

T.J.Hockenson ($3,600): Dallas is third-worst in FFPG allowed to TEs.

Ryan Griffin($2,900):He provided two quality performances before disappearing last week, and it’sworth a flier to see if bounces back.

NFL DFSWeek 11 Defensive Values and Punts

Denver ($2,400): I am expecting a low-scoring game with Minnesota and the Kirk Cousins dud that pops up here and there.

Arizona ($1,500): The 49ers offense could be less potent without Kittle and Sanders. Arizona is one behind San Francisco for the most forced fumbles with 13. The Cards are worth a try in a divisional game, which could always feature some stretches of struggle

NFL DFS Week 9 Quarterback Values and Punts

Derek Carr ($5,500 on DraftKings): The Raiders QB haspicked up his play recently and faces the Lions, who have the league’s worstpass defense. Oakland may prefer to run first, but Matthew Stafford will alsobe flinging the ball around the yard and Carr will have to keep pace.

Ryan Fitzpatrick ($4,800): Miami is actually startingto look more competitive and could come away with its first win of the seasonat home against the Jets. If the Dolphins are going to actually claim avictory, Fitzpatrick will carry them to it. The Jets’ 24^th-rankedpass defense will be further weakened as RCB Trumaine Johnson is out with an ankleinjury.

NFL DFS Week 9 Running Back Values and Punts

Devin Singletary ($4,700):  Among NFC teams, Washington allows the secondmost Fantasy Points Per Game to RBs. The Bills need a jolt offensively fromsomeone other than John Brown, and the exciting and versatile rookie is the guyto start providing it this week.

Mark Walton ($4,500): The path to a featured role wascleared for him this week when Kenyan Drake was dealt to Arizona. Walton hasshown he can be effective as both a runner and receiver and could be set forhis biggest workload yet in NFL DFS Week 9. He may actually register his firstcareer NFL TD against the Jets.

Ronald Jones ($4,100): If I was to go with Jaylen Samuelsas my third pick, that would be too obvious. The Seahawks and Buccaneers willengage in the highest scoring game of the week and Jones could see some openrunning lanes as Seattle has to mainly concentrate on stopping the passinggame. Jones has the speed to rip off a sizable run and can also finish off ascoring drive with a TD run.  I have agut feeling (and my gut is very prominent) that Jones is on the verge of aquality DFS outing.

NFL DFS Week 9 Wide Receiver Values and Punts

Danny Amendola ($4,700): He caught eight passes ineach of the past two games for a total of 200 yards during that span. Amendolais seizing a role as Stafford’s high percentage and yardage after the catch receiver.

Zach Pascal ($4,100): With T.Y. Hilton out, he isexpected to step forward as the top WR for Jacoby Brissett. Teammate ParrisCampbell is also a very appealing GPP play at $3,000 and has more upside.

David Moore ($3,100): With Seattle’s signing of Josh Gordon, Moore will soon lose playing time and may be stripped of his role as the secondary downfield target behind DK Metcalf. Moore may want to make a statement in a high-scoring affair with the Buccaneers and their 31^st ranked pass defense.

NFL DFS Week 9 Tight End Values and Punts

Noah Fant ($3,000): He was targeted a career-higheight times in Week 8 and could see a rise in production as the second mostprominent pass-catcher in the Denver offense. Brandon Allen may look for him asa safe target in his first NFL start vs. Cleveland.

Jacob Hollister ($2,900): Tampa Bay is second-worstin the league at defending the TE position, and Hollister has been targetedeight times in two games since coming off the practice squad. Russell Wilsonwill throw to him with some confidence and Hollister is capable of providingthat surprising TE outing that no one sees coming. Those seem to happenrandomly and frequently. Here’s an actual prediction that Hollister could bethe productive punt that no one else but you will own.

NFL DFS Week 9 Defenses – Values and Punts

Pittsburgh ($2,400): This unit is very underpriced.The Steelers have eight interceptions in their past three games and at leastfour sacks in four of their last six. The Colts passing game is depleted, andwhile Jacoby Brissett has been protected well this year, there could becoverage sacks absorbed and a lower scoring output against a unit that hasallowed 31 points in its past two games.

Washington ($1,800): The Redskins have not allowed 20 points in their past three games and have 10 sacks during that span. They intercepted two passes in Weeks 4 and 6. Buffalo is bottom 10 in points scored, averaging 19.1 points per game.
