DFS BEAST OF THE WEEK 1 2016

By Jeremy Munter
Jeremy Munter YOU SANUZE. YOU LUZE
The obvious play at WR this week in all Daily Fantasy Football leagues is Julio Jones. Going up against a soft Bucs Defense, in Atlanta, there is no doubt you will get a BEAST performance from arguably the best Wide Receiver in the game.
While Julio is the obvious play, the play you need to have at WR this week is.


MOHAMED SANU - ATL vs. TB
(WR. $5,800 FANDUEL)
Julio Jones is nursing a bad ankle. Julio will play, he will also likely be 100%. With that being the case if the Bucs want any chance to win this game, they must roll the coverage over to shutdown Julio as much as they can. When the Bucs shift the focus onto Julio Jones, it is Mohamed Sanu time. Matt Ryan has a lot of trust in his new toy Mohamed Sanu, and we can easily see 10+ Targets against the Bucs. Matt Ryan does not have much else to work with in the passing game besides the quick hits to the Running Backs.

When Sanu gets 10+ Targets, you can expect an easy 7+ Receptions. 80+ Yards. With the definite potential TD in what will be a high scoring day for the Falcons in their home opener.

If you do not play Mohamed Sanu on your FanDuel lineup this week. You Sanuze, You Luze.


MATTHEW STAFFORD - DET @ IND
(QB. $7,400 FANDUEL)
The Lions are running a Shotgun No Huddle Offense. Stafford has more weapons than most QBs in the league, and he has the arm strength that barely any QB can compete with. Playing in a Dome this Sunday, against another team that goes a lot of no huddle. We can expect a good fashion Shootout. With the Lions not having much of a running game, we can expect Stafford to throw the ball 50+ Times with ease.

When Stafford throws the ball 50+ Times, you can expect a guaranteed 300+ Yards. 2+ TDs. In my mind, there is not a safer QB in Fantasy Football this week and he will be #1 on my list. The Lions are going to put up a lot of points this year. Stafford will show the world why in Week 1.
