Golden Tate, WR, Detroit Lions

FanDuel Price: $7,400
Projected Points: 13.9

With Stafford in line for a big day, there will clearly be a lot of FanDuel points available for his receivers. The top option there has recently been Marvin Jones, who led the team with a 96.82% snap percentage and 12.0 targets over his past three games. But this week, Jones is expected to be shadowed by Jason McCourty, who Pro Football Focus grades as the second-best cornerback in the league.

That leaves Tate to line up in the slot primarily against Briean Boddy-Calhoun, who has a very respectable 13th-ranked grade of his own, but this provides a better matchup than McCourty. Just last week, the Browns gave up 5 receptions for 98 yards and a touchdown to the Adam Thielen, who primarily lines up in the slot.

While Jones has stolen the spotlight, Tate has been performing quite well himself, with an average of 7.0 receptions for 98.3 yards over his past three games.

With the Lions having the second-highest implied total (28.00) this week, there are plenty of points to be had between Stafford and Tate, making them an excellent stacking option.
