DraftKings Daily Fantasy Football: Top Punt Plays for Week 10
James Jones, WR, Oakland Raiders ($3,800)
After a couple of mediocre stat lines, James Jones has seen a dip in his pricing this week, which allows you to take full advantage. With the way fantasy points are scored on DraftKings (full PPR), Jones typically has a decent floor each week - he’s only had two games this season in which posted less than double-digit points.
When we look at “punt” plays, we want to establish who has the best potential to breakout, and what that player’s ceiling may be. Well, Jones put up a crazy 28.2 points on 9 catches, 112 yards and a touchdown back in Week 2, which illustrates that he does present upside.
He’s got a juicy matchup this week at home against Denver, in which the Raiders will probably have to throw the ball a lot to keep up with the Broncos’ potent offense. It’s more likely that cornerback Aqib Talib will be matched up against deep threat Andre Holmes, which could mean more targets for Jones.
Not to mention, Jones has the highest Reception Net Expected Points (NEP) total of all Raiders wideouts, and has easily seen the most targets on the year.
