3 Daily Fantasy Football Players to Avoid in Week 6

Jarvis Landry, WR, Miami Dolphins

FanDuel Price: $6,500

DraftKings Price: $6,600

DeVante Parker is trending towards not playing this week, which only solidifies Jarvis Landry's stranglehold on the Miami Dolphins' targets. This season, Landry has seen a whopping 32% of the targets, and his 10.8 targets per game ranks third in the league. We love our volume in fantasy football, and Landry most definitely has that.

But the reason why he makes this list is that despite the guaranteed high floor is that he completely lacks any upside in this dysfunctional Dolphins offense. Jay Cutler has proven to be a complete disaster, throwing for just 176.5 yards per game and 3 touchdowns over four games. And despite all the targets, according to airyards.com, Landry has only seen 254 air yards, which ranks well behind both Parker (421) and even Kenny Stills (308). This is perhaps no surprise when considering Landry's extremely low 5.9 yard average depth of target (aDOT). Add it all together, and this is why Landry has failed to reach 50 yards in three of four games, and only has 1 touchdown.

The unlikelihood of a score takes Landry off the table on FanDuel, but even on DraftKings where he benefits from full-PPR scoring, it's hard to get excited when he's priced as the WR13. He'll probably still reach low double-digit points on DraftKings based on his high volume of receptions alone, but you can find more upside than that in this price range. The Dolphins have just a 17.0 implied team total against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 6.
