6 DraftKings Bargains for Week 12

Tyrod Taylor, QB, Buffalo Bills

DraftKings Price: $5,800

Thankfully, the Buffalo Bills have made the right decision to start Tyrod Taylor this week over Mr. five-interception Nathan Peterman. They could still be in position to get a wild card spot in the playoffs and are long past the point of tanking for a top-three pick in the draft. There should've been no "evaluating" going on -- just start TyGod!

It doesn't hurt that this matchup is ideal. The Chiefs lost their chance at a solid defensive season when Eric Berry tore his Achilles in Week 1. Sure, they have had bright spots here and there, but for every amazing play by Marcus Peters, there's an equally awful one by Phillip Gaines. Kansas City has given up the sixth-most passing yards this season and have also given up the seventh-most rushing yards to opposing quarterbacks.

Tyrod should be in good position to take advantage and has been a very consistent fantasy option of late. Since the Buffalo Bills' bye in Week 6, Taylor has hit three-times value or higher in every game except Week 10 against the New Orleans Saints. That includes this past week against the Los Angeles Chargers, despite coming into the game in the third quarter.
