MVP Candidates
Josh Allen ($17,500) leads the MVP candidates, and it’s no surprise. In the 2022 regular season, he was one of just three players to average over 25 FanDuel points per game. Despite facing a tough Jets pass defense, Allen’s dual-threat capabilities, including his rushing prowess, make him a compelling choice.
On the other hand, Aaron Rodgers ($16,000) is a popular MVP pick. However, his performance in 2022 was less stellar, and his playing style leans towards a slower pace. Consider him as a flex play if you want to pivot away from the masses.
If you’re seeking alternatives, wide receivers Stefon Diggs ($14,500) and Garrett Wilson ($13,500) are intriguing options. Diggs is the top target in the Bills’ passing attack, but he faces a challenging Jets defense. Meanwhile, Wilson, coming off a strong rookie campaign, could shine as Rodgers’ favorite target.
For those willing to take a contrarian approach, Gabriel Davis ($11,500) offers potential in the multiplier slot. Despite a lower target share, his air yards and end zone target share suggest a high ceiling. Keep an eye on him.
Flex Breakdown
In the flex spots, consider running backs Dalvin Cook ($12,000) and Breece Hall ($12,500). While either of them could emerge as top scorers with multiple touchdowns, their upside might be impacted if they split opportunities.
James Cook ($11,000) carries appeal but faces competition from Damien Harris ($9,500) and Josh Allen near the goal line. Expect Cook’s workload to resemble that of Dalvin Cook and Hall. Harris, on the other hand, is a touchdown-dependent option.
Among the Jets’ pass-catchers, Allen Lazard ($10,000) is expected to be Rodgers’ second option, making him a worthy consideration. However, the situation becomes murkier with Mecole Hardman ($7,000), Randall Cobb ($7,500), and tight end Tyler Conklin ($8,000) vying for targets.
Buffalo was tough on tight ends in 2022, potentially affecting Conklin’s appeal. Dalton Kincaid ($7,000) and Dawson Knox ($8,500) could be better choices. Kincaid, a first-round pick, is a breakout candidate.
Don’t forget about Deonte Harty ($5,500), who could be Allen’s primary slot option, making him a low-cost, high-reward pick.
Weather Considerations
Keep an eye on the weather, as rain is expected before and during parts of the game. In low-scoring scenarios, kickers Tyler Bass ($9,000) and Greg Zuerlein ($8,000) can provide value to your lineup.
In conclusion, the Bills vs. Jets Monday Night Football matchup offers numerous options for your FanDuel single-game contest lineup. Consider the weather, player strengths, and matchups when making your selections. Good luck, and may your fantasy football dreams come true!
