4 NFL FanDuel Studs to Target in Week 16

Drew Brees, QB, New Orleans Saints

FanDuel Price: $8,400
Projected Points: 24.7

Drew Brees is coming off of his worst stretch of the season, averaging under 200 yards over his past four games with one interception in each of those contests. But even with his recent struggles, he still hasn't thrown more than one interception in any game this season, which elevates his floor. This is especially notable ahead of his Week 16 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, who have intercepted just one pass over their past five games.

Brees threw four touchdown passes in the first of those four games, marking the last of his four-game stretch with at least three touchdown passes in each game. That shows off his sky-high ceiling, and with the New Orleans Saints sporting the highest implied total of any team in Week 16, Brees is certainly in a great spot to bounce back with some big numbers. Our models agree, projecting him to lead all quarterbacks with 2.9 touchdowns on Sunday.

Don't let Brees' recent struggles turn you away from rostering a quarterback who has already topped 27.0 FanDuel points in six games this season. Lock him in.
