Still, he is priced at $8,800 on FanDuel, which is the second-most expensive wide receiver on the weekend slate. This play is a bit risky based on his production thus far, but Julio has performed well in games with a high over/under.
In eight games where the total was a whopping 54 points or higher, Jones averaged 20.31 half-PPR points. The total in this weekend's game versus the New England Patriots is 56 points, which is by far the highest of all games this weekend.
Don't be afraid to pay up for Julio.
