Fantasy football: FanDuel NFL 2020 best lineup for Week 16
By Nick Villano
FLEX Option: JK Dobbins $6,300
JK Dobbins is still not getting the respect he deserves in daily fantasy. He’s scored a touchdown in four-straight contests. In each, he’s scored between 13 and 18 points. He’s right in the sweet spot where he’s getting everything out of this offense that he can.
This week, he’s taking on a New York Giants offense that’s allowed a touchdown to a running back in five of the last six games. That sixth game was against the Bengals. Everything is pointing towards Dobbins getting another touchdown this week.
This should be a pretty easy matchup for the Ravens. The Giants have lost two straight after winning four in a row. Those two haven’t been particularly close. This could lead to a lot of rushing from the Ravens offense.
Dobbins was always going to take the lead role for the Ravens this season. Mark Ingram and Gus Edwards held on longer than most expected, but Dobbins is the man with the most talent at this point in his career. He’s the man in the Ravens’ backfield, and the team should give him more and more carries as they get closer to the playoffs. The Ravens still need the Dolphins to lose a game to get into the playoffs and they need to beat the Giants and Bengals. Obviously, the Ravens have to hope for some help, but they need to take care of business themselves first. It starts with a dominant Dobbins.
