Jameis Winston, QB, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Price: $7,400

Jameis Winston was a mixed bag as he came off the bench in his return from suspension in Week 4. He was an efficient 16-of-20 and scored a touchdown, but he also threw two picks. That has largely been the story of his career so far, from both a real-world and fantasy football standpoint.

His first three NFL seasons saw Winston average at least 16.0 FanDuel points per game in each year, including 16.4 last season. That's not a huge mark, but it does put him firmly in play when he's got the right matchup, especially when his price tag gets this low.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a strong 27.0-point implied total this week in a matchup that projects to be a shootout, with a 57.5-point over/under, against the Atlanta Falcons.

Atlanta ranks only 27th in numberFire's Adjusted Defensive Passing Net Expected Points (NEP) per play metric while allowing top-five fantasy numbers to quarterbacks, and we project Winston as the top point-per-dollar value among quarterbacks this week.
