Ted Ginn Jr., WR, New Orleans Saints

DraftKings Price: $4,300

Projected Points: 9.79

Projected Value (points per $1,000): 2.28

Ted Ginn Jr. is affordable for a second straight week. He was targeted seven times and hauled in three of those attempts for only 44 yards in the Divisional Round. Despite being popular last week in GPPs, Ginn could be the classic recency-bias fade, where DFS players are hesitant to go back to his after being burned.

But there are a lot of reasons to like Ginn in this spot.

Ginn was not only the second-best pass-game option for the Saints (behind Michael Thomas), he had a whopping 119 air yards in the win over the Philadelphia Eagles, the third-most among all receivers on last week's slate, per our Brandon Gdula.

Speaking of air yards, Ginn had an early target in the opening quarter where he clearly had a beat on his corner and could have taken it to the house had it not been underthrown. Fortunately, Ginn’s price has stagnated, which may not be the case had he reeled in that touchdown.

Ginn has at least six targets in five of his six games played this season, including the playoffs. He's a smashing value at this price.
