4 NFL FanDuel Studs to Target in Week 17

Julio Jones, WR, Atlanta Falcons

FanDuel Price: $8,400
Projected Points: $15.9

Julio Jones gave DFS players a scare last week when he was visibly pained by a thumb injury prior to Sunday's game versus the New Orleans Saints. But those who stuck with him were rewarded -- he caught seven of 11 targets for 149 yards and 18.4 FanDuel points.

That certainly helps to dispel some of the concern about him missing practice on Wednesday with the thumb and also an ankle injury. Add in the fact that the Atlanta Falcons can lock up a playoff spot with a win in Week 17, and it's hard to imagine Jones not giving it everything he's got in the final week of the regular season.

And, like Bell and Brady, Jones lines up opposite a division rival in Week 17. Atlanta faces the Carolina Panthers, who allowed Jones to catch six of 12 targets for 118 yards back in Week 9.

As long as Jones is cleared to play this week, you can build your FanDuel lineups around him with confidence.
