Antonio Brown, WR, Pittsburgh Steelers

FanDuel Price: $9,100
Projected Points: 17.1

Yes, this is the third Steelers player mentioned already, but remember, they are projected to score the most points of any team in the wild card round. That puts multiple players from their team in play, and stacking would be a good way to maximize upside.

Brown had less than 10 FanDuel points in just three of his 15 games this season, and eclipsed the 20-point mark six times.

He led the team in both target (27.85%) and red-zone (14.56%) opportunities, and will have a significant advantage over any of Miami's cornerbacks if Byron Maxwell is unable to play. That will be a situation worth monitoring, as Maxwell is Miami's only cornerback graded inside the top-50 players at the position, according to Pro Football Focus.

Brown has been excellent at Heinz Field this season, with at least 100 receiving yards or a touchdown in six of his seven home games, and he is primed to continue that this weekend.
