Wide Receiver

Martavis Bryant

Week 15 Salary: $6,000
Week 16 Salary: $7,300

With Antonio Brown going down last week with a calf injury, it was obvious that his two successors would get a bump in salary. The only question was how much. JuJu Smith-Schuster's salary jumped $300, but it Martavis Bryant saw his jump an astounding $1,300 heading into Monday night's game against the Houston Texans.

Houston has compiled a 1-6 record since Deshaun Watson went down. Their offense has scored more than 16 points just once during that stretch, and the defense hasn't fared any better, especially against the pass. The Texans have given up the second-most FanDuel points to quarterbacks and fourth-most to wide receivers this season. There is always talk about Ben Roethlisberger's struggles on the road, but it would take a Herculean effort on his part to not have a good game. The Pittsburgh Steelers need to win this game to ensure that they are still on track for a first-round bye, too.

Only Bryant's Week 2, 17.9 FanDuel point outing would have given him two times value at this newly inflated price. With that said, his target share should shoot up this week, and his deep play ability -- especially against a weak defense such as this -- gives him tournament-winning upside.

Other Big Movers

Keelan Cole, Jacksonville Jaguars: $4,500 > $5,300 (With Marqise Lee out, Cole should continue to rock.)

Jaydon Mickens, Jacksonville Jaguars: $4,500 > $5,200 (Ditto.)

Robby Anderson, New York Jets: $7,800 > $7,200 (No McCown has taken away all of Anderson's value.)

Stefon Diggs, Minnesota Vikings: $6,800 > $7,400 (Great matchup here against the Packers, and he should have fairly low ownership in tournaments.)
