Top 5 Daily Fantasy Week 12 Buildings Blocks

Daily Fantasy is still legal, right? I hope so, because here are five guys who will surely win you the $1 million. Okay, you may not win $1 million or even $100,000. Let’s shoot for winning our money back!! A key to having a successful daily fantasy line-up is having a good mix of studs, sleepers, and risks. The following five players are great pieces for your daily fantasy football team.

5. Thomas Rawls, Running Back, Seattle Seahawks, FanDuel $6,300 and DraftKings $4,500.

With Marshawn Lynch officially out for the next month or so, Thomas Rawls will be guaranteed the starting job in Seattle. In his time as a starter for Pete Carroll and the Seahawks, Rawls was one of best backs in the league. Will we see similar numbers out of the new lead back? Possibly, but he is a cheap and somewhat risky play for Week 12. One thing is guaranteed, though. Thomas Rawls will see a full work load out of the back field, which bodes well for his owners!

4. Larry Fitzgerald, Wide Receiver, Arizona Cardinals, FanDuel $7,400 and DraftKings $7,400.

Are we sure this is 32-year-old Larry Fitzgerald? He has seven touchdowns! A vast majority of the football world thought Fitzy would hang it up after the 2014 season. To be honest, if I was running routes for the Cardinals, I might have seven touchdowns. Why is that? My quarterback would be Carson Palmer. Palmer has been one of his not the best quarterback in the NFL. Start Larry Fitzgerald with high expectations in Week 12.

3. Travis Kelce, Tight End, Kansas City Chiefs, FanDuel $5,800 and DraftKings $4,700.

Can we officially make Travis Kelce’s nickname Zeus? The dude is an animal. For some reason, he has had a few down weeks because Alex Smith won’t throw the ball his way. Kelce’s price is surprisingly low, which makes him a tremendous play in Week 12. Do not let the price fool you. Zeus is a top three tight end this weekend.

2. Drew Brees, Quarterback, New Orleans Saints, FanDuel $8,200 and DraftKings $7,300.

This might be the biggest risk on my list. Drew Brees has been up and down this season, but his up is 300 yards and five touchdown passes. New Orleans is playing a hot Houston Texans’ defense but do not fret. Brandon Cooks and Mark Ingram are playing fairly well as of late and will give some protection to their quarterback. With a reasonable price for one of the best quarterbacks in the league, Drew Brees is a low risk play for his Week 12 game.

1.DeAndre Hopkins, Wide Receiver, Houston Texans, FanDuel $ 9,400 and DraftKings $9,100.

This dude is the BEST wide receiver in the National Football League. Let me explain. Antonio Brown, A.J. Green, and Calvin Johnson all have great signal callers. Can you name DeAndre Hopkins quarterback? Can I get a T.J. Yates name drop? Even with the revolving door at quarterback, Hopkins has continually put up monster numbers. If you select him for your daily fantasy line-up, Hopkins will eat up a large chunk of your salary. The Texans’ receiver is 100% worth his price. Start him and expect big, big numbers this Sunday.
