Week 5 DFS Fanduel Tournament Plays

DraftHustle’s Top Fanduel Tournament Game Plays of the Week!

QB

Teddy Bridgewater - ($6,400) vs Jets

Teddy Bridgewater filled in decently for Tua Tagovailoa on Thursday night, and now he gets a full week of practice before he faces his former team, the New York Jets. He has plenty of weapons to throw to, and they will be used plenty in this matchup. Teddy has by far the biggest Price to Projection +/- (+15) due to his price, and he has a great chance to hit 3x value. Stack him with Tyreek Hill and/or Jaylen Waddle and flourish in week 5.

RB

Rhamondre Stevenson – NE ($6,000) vs Lions

Rhamondre Stevenson has taken over the pass catching role recently and it has given him a solid fantasy floor. He has averaged 13 carries and 5 targets the last 2 games, and that trend will likely continue with New England starting their 3rd string QB. The Patriots face the Detroit Lions who give up a league high 8 rushing TDs. This is mainly a matchup play, but Stevenson’s cheap price allows him to fit alongside high-priced players.

WR

Deebo Samuel – SF ($7,300) vs Panthers

Deebo Samuel has a very low price compared to his production thanks to the 49ers having been on primetime the past 2 weeks, and we will take advantage in week 5. Deebo is coming off his best game of the year against Rams, and he faces the Carolina Panthers who aren’t as talented as the Rams. Deebo’s game breaking ability makes him a very good GPP play this week.

TE

T.J. Hockenson – DET ($7,000) vs Patriots

T.J. Hockenson exploded last week putting up a massive 12/8/179/2 line in week 4. The Lions will most likely be without D’Andre Swift and Amon-Ra St. Brown again, opening up plenty of usage for Hockenson against the Patriots. I expect most players to avoid Hockenson due to his price and the matchup on paper, making him a good contrarian play with elite upside.

D/ST

New Orleans Saints – ($3,800) vs Seattle Seahawks

The New Orleans Saints have the talent to be an elite defense but haven’t been able to put in together on the field yet. They have a good chance to turn it around in week 5 against the overachieving Seattle Seahawks. They have recorded at least 3 sacks in the last 3 weeks, so the floor is there. At $3,800, it won’t take much for them to hit at least 2x value.
