Fantasy Football, Week 13: High value plays for DraftKings
By Dylan Broady
D.J. Moore, Carolina Panthers, $5,600
Stats: 565 receiving yards, 2 touchdowns
DJ Moore has amassed at least 90 receiving yards in three out of the last five games. With fellow wide receiver Devin Funchess dealing with a back injury, Moore has topped at least 90 receiving yards the past two weeks. Going forward against a Buccaneers defense that is 27th-ranked against the pass this is an easy high-value play on DraftKings.
Moore comes at a juicy price as well and that just makes us smile even more. Weeks 11 and 12 combined Moore has amassed 248 receiving yards and a touchdown on 15 receptions. This rookie is for real and needs to be played every week going forward. Cam Newton has built quite the rapport with the young wideout targeting him 48 times this season and 17 times the past two weeks.
The Tampa Bay defense has allowed 391 total yards, 274 passing yards, 116 rushing yards and 30 points per game this season to opposing offenses. This is the perfect matchup for the young rookie to top 90 yards for a third straight week. We think he will and we think this Panthers team is hungry for a much needed win after losing three straight games.
Moore comes at a great price on DraftKings and is the very definition of a high-value play. You can utilize him and his big-play ability, while being able to fill out your roster with the bigger studs. This wide out has all the potential to be a bigger stud so take advantage of his price while you still can.
Prediction: 100 receiving yards, 2 touchdowns
