Top 10 Bargain Players For FanDuel In Week 12

Sniffing out the best bargains is vital to placing in the money on FanDuel. You have to pay attention to injuries, favorable matchups and bounce-back candidates to find good production at a low price. Here are 10 players who should outperform their price tag on FanDuel in Week 12.

The Cleveland Browns' offense should get a nice boost with the return of Josh Gordon this week, increasing Cundiff's opportunities to score. He's definitely not the best option at kicker this week, but his price tag is as low as FanDuel goes.

9. QB Josh McCown - $7,500

McCown proved that he is capable of big points last season with the Chicago Bears. He hasn't quite repeated that success this season with the Tampa Bay Bucs, but he's continually building better chemistry with his offense. This week he faces his old Bears squad that ranks No. 25 in passing yards allowed and dead last in points allowed.

8. QB Eli Manning - $7,200

Manning is the first of three New York Giants players on this list. The Giants have faced tough Seattle Seahawks' and San Francisco 49ers' defenses in their last two contests, which has helped drive some of the players' prices down. This week the G-Men are at home facing a mediocre Cowboys defense that Manning put up 23 fantasy points against in Week 7.

7. TE Coby Fleener - $5,400

Andrew Luck's old college buddy had a career-high 144 receiving yards on seven grabs last Sunday. More intriguing to Fleener's value is that the Colts' other productive tight end, Dwayne Allen, left the game in the fourth quarter with a low ankle sprain. He is considered day-to-day for now. If Allen is forced to sit out against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Fleener will be a huge bargain.

6. TE Larry Donnell - $5,500

The second Giant on this list will be in a rematch with the team he had season highs in receptions (7) and receiving yards (90) against back in Week 7. The Cowboys are one of the most fantasy-friendly defenses in the league to opposing tight ends, giving Donnell a nice high ceiling.

5. WR Kenny Stills - $5,900

With Brandin Cooks now on the IR, Stills will likely see an expanded role and increased targets for the remainder of the season. Marques Colston costs just a hundred bucks more and will probably get more looks in the New Orleans Saints' offense as well. Stills' big-play ability gives him more upside, which is why he gets the nod over Colston here.

4. WR Torrey Smith - $6,500

Smith has shaken off the early-season rust to put up at least 14.3 fantasy points (by FanDuel's scoring) in four of his last five games. There was a goose egg in the middle of those five games, but against a very soft Saints secondary, that is not likely to happen again.

3. RB Trent Richardson - $5,700

Richardson isn't the best running back out there, but Ahmad Bradshaw's fractured fibula has made him the lead runner on one of the league's most potent offenses. On tap for Richardson is a Jaguars' defense that ranks No. 24 in fantasy points allowed to running backs.

2. RB Rashad Jennings - $6,600

Jennings got 22 touches last week in his return from an MCL sprain. He turned that into just 8.6 fantasy points thanks to a tough 49ers' run defense, but he should be more productive against a more friendly Dallas defense. Jennings says he feels good, so expect a heavy workload for him on Sunday night.

Bargain of the week has to go to Mason, who racked up 113 yards against the Denver Broncos' second-ranked run defense last Sunday. The rookie's price tag is ridiculously low. This week he gets a San Diego Chargers defense that is middle of the pack in fantasy points allowed to opposing runners.
