Green Bay Packers vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Over/Under: N/A

Packers Implied Team Total: N/A

Buccaneers Implied Team Total: N/A

This week's Green Bay Packers (5-6) / Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4-7) matchup is a bit of a question mark insofar as the over/under and implied point totals have yet to be released. This is due to the questionable status of Bucs' quarterback Jameis Winston, but regardless of whether the third-year man plays, this represents a highly exploitable matchup in daily formats as two bottom-10 NFL defenses (in total yardage allowed) do battle.

Brett Hundley, QB, Green Bay Packers

FanDuel Price: $6,400

Brett Hundley is coming off the best game of his professional career after dropping 245 yards and 3 touchdowns on the Pittsburgh Steelers' third-ranked pass defense on Sunday Night Football. It was the first time all season he looked confident and calm in the pocket, and the Packers were a much better team for it.


This week, Hundley draws an incredibly favorable matchup against a Bucs defense that has been getting shredded, allowing 284.6 passing yards per game (most in the league) and 18.7 FanDuel points per contest to opposing quarterbacks (tied for sixth-most). Hundley is hitting his stride at the right time and can be started for QB24 cost this week. The potential rewards (and incredible savings) are worth the minimal investment.

Davante Adams, WR, Green Bay Packers

FanDuel Price: $6,500

Another sensational value in Week 13 is Davante Adams. Over the course of Hundley's five starts, Adams has emerged as the premier option in the Packers' passing game, racking up 42 targets, 27 receptions, 363 yards, and 2 touchdowns. The connection has blossomed over the last three games, as Adams has secured 18 catches for 298 yards and 2 touchdowns in those contests. Shockingly, Jordy Nelson has been all but phased out of the offense, and Adams has been the primary beneficiary.

This week, Adams faces a Bucs defense that is allowing the most FanDuel points per game (36.0) to opposing wideouts and just permitted a 12-253-2 stat line to Julio Jones last weekend. Shockingly, Adams can be started for WR25 cost this week. Exploit this considerable value because the price tag is nowhere in line with the upside.

Others to Consider

If Jameis Winston ($7,300) plays, he's in consideration against a struggling Packers pass defense. The same can be said for Mike Evans ($7,500), as the Pack has surrendered 31.3 FanDuel points per game (third-most) to opposing wideouts this season.

Jamaal Williams ($5,700) is coming off the finest performance of his young career, racking up 135 total yards and a score against the Steelers. If Ty Montgomery ($5,600) and Aaron Jones ($5,600) remain sidelined for another week, Williams could have another big day. Although the Bucs are better against the run than the pass, Williams has snared 8 receptions over the last two weeks, giving him a sufficiently usable floor at a considerable discount.

For the time being, Jordy Nelson ($6,400) isn't a startable option. The veteran has only accumulated 103 scoreless yards in Hundley's five starts. Unless Aaron Rodgers is back in the lineup before season's end, Nelson is probably best left on the sidelines in daily formats.
