NFL FanDuel: Week 1 DEF Targets – (Early Only)
Baltimore Ravens – $5,000 – (Cash)
Generally, I like to spend up on my defense as about as much as I like to on my QB, but the Ravens could almost be too cheap here. The Dolphins are a mess, trading away all of their young talent, and the only thing they have on their side is the hope that Ryan Fitzpatrick can somehow be “Fitzmagic” once again with almost no help around him.
The Ravens defense was among the best in points allowed last season, and the only knock on them from a DFS perspective would be their lack of turnovers forced. Forcing fumbles and interceptions is obviously unpredictable, but the addition of former Seahawks elite safety Earl Thomas could help them in that department this season.
Miami just traded their top young offensive lineman in Laremy Tunsil and a solid young wide receiver in Kenny Stills for draft picks, so this team is going to struggle on offense. It’s really hard for me to look elsewhere for cash games with this matchup, as the Dolphins have a shot at being historically awful this season.
