FanDuel NFL 2021: Best lineup for Week 12
Tight End: Dan Arnold, Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Atlanta Falcons-$5,100
The process to put Arnold here in Week 11 was sound, so I’m leaning on it again this week. He’s still in the top-tier of tight ends in many metrics since being traded to the Jaguars, and Week 12 presents a good spot.
The Falcons are in the top half of the league in fantasy points allowed to tight ends, but they are also near the bottom in targets allowed to the position (6.5 per game). According to numberFire, they are 25th in the league in adjusted fantasy points per target allowed to tight ends (1.55), and Arnold may get the squeaky wheel treatment on Sunday. Over his five games prior to Week 11, he had at least seven targets and 60 or more yards four times.
Using two Jaguars in this week’s lineup might seem foolish. But I see the potential for a high-scoring game in #DUVAL on Sunday, and cashing in big requires going a little contrarian at times.
