Week 3 NFL FanDuel Salary Movers
Wide Receiver
A.J. Green, Cincinnati Bengals
Week 2 Salary: $8,200
Week 3 Salary: $7,500
A.J. Green opened the year priced at $8,400. Now, due to erratic play from Andy Dalton, he's priced as a fringe top-10 receiver on FanDuel.
With Tyler Eifert not expected to play and the Cincinnati Bengals listed as 9-point underdogs, Green could see as many targets as he can handle against a weak Green Bay Packers secondary. He is close to a must-play at this salary.
Emmanuel Sanders, Denver Broncos
Week 2 Salary: $6,400
Week 3 Salary: $6,900
Only Alshon Jeffery saw a larger price bump than Emmanuel Sanders among wide receivers (unless you count Rashard Higgins, who will cost $5,100 after not having a price on FanDuel last week). However, as just the 18th-most expensive wide out, Sanders still might be underpriced.
Through two weeks, only Dez Bryant has seen more red zone targets than Sanders, who is tied for the league-lead in red zone scores. Sanders also boasts a 24.1% target market share and should continue to be heavily targeted in Week 3.
A matchup against the Buffalo Bills is far from ideal, but the Trevor Siemian/Sanders connection might be hot enough to overcome it. He's far from a must, but is certainly in play. Don't freak out over the $500 rise in salary.
