3 FanDuel Defenses to Target in Week 5

Pittsburgh Steelers

FanDuel Price: $4,900
Projections: 20.58 points allowed, 2.32 sacks, 2.16 turnovers, 0.34 touchdowns

The Pittsburgh D/ST has yet to score double-digit FanDuel points this season, but they started to turn the corner last week in a home rout of the Kansas City Chiefs when they notched four sacks and two turnovers.

A rarely used strategy in DFS is rostering D/STs whose offenses have high projected team totals. If their offense scores as Vegas expects, the defense will have plenty of opportunities for sacks and turnovers as the opposing team has to pass more to keep up.

Pittsburgh has the second-highest team total this week at 27.5 points, and they have the pleasure of facing New York Jets quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, who has thrown just one touchdown with nine interceptions in his last two games.

From now on, the Jets' offense is a priority FanDuel target until Fitzpatrick snaps out of his funk.
