Brock Purdy- QB- 49ers

Fantasy owners might want to consider picking up Brock Purdy for a dollar this week. After Jimmy Garoppolo left the game with a foot injury in the first quarter two weeks ago, the former Iowa State quarterback has been on-fire after wins against the Dolphins and Buccaneers. Purdy threw for 25 completions, 210 yards and two touchdowns in week 13, and last week he recorded 16 completions for 185 yards and two scores. He also ran for one touchdown in the second quarter. The 49ers are loaded with talent on offense, so Purdy doesn't have to do much except get players the ball. Purdy and the 49ers face the Seahawks with a chance to clinch the NFC West. Get Purdy for a buck, who is only rostered in 10 percent of the leagues.

 

Jahan Dotson- WR- Commanders

Rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson is worth picking up for a buck this week. Last game against the Giants, he had five receptions for 54 yards and a touchdown. He also recorded the most targets he'd seen this season. The Commanders face the Giants again in week 15, whose defense gave up 42 against the Eagles last game. Get Dotson this week and play him in week 15 if you need a wide receiver. He is also a great keeper and dynasty prospect if you need potential players on your roster heading into next season.

 

 

 

Pierce Strong Jr.- RB- Patriots

Last Monday after Rhamondre Stevenson left the game with an ankle injury, Pierce Strong split time with Kevin Harris. Strong recorded five carries for 70 yards and one touchdown. New England faces the Raiders on Sunday, whose defense has given up the 7th most fantasy points to running backs this season. Monitor Stevenson and Damien Harris's injury status before Sunday, but Strong might be a good start if you need a running back for the first round of the playoffs. Kevin Harris is also a possible option for a dollar.

 

 

 

TY Hilton- WR- Cowboys

A player who might be worth picking up for a dollar is former Colts' wide receiver TY Hilton who signed with the Cowboys Monday. Hilton could be what the Cowboys are looking for, which is a deep ball threat on offense to open the middle of the field. Not sure what Hilton's impact will be in the next couple weeks, but he may be worth picking up and stashing on your bench in case you need a wide out late in the playoffs. The Cowboys play the Jaguars this week, whose defense has given up the 9th most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Who knows, maybe Hilton plays this week and catches a long touchdown. You can get him for a buck.

 

 

 

Tyler Conklin- TE- Jets

If you need a tight end for your first-round matchup, Tyler Conklin may be worth spending a dollar on in week 15. He hasn't produced much in the last few weeks. Last week against the Bills, he only had five receptions for 28 yards. But this week, the Jets face the Lions, whose defense has given up the 4th most fantasy points to tight ends this season. If you are desperate for a tight end and need a sleeper with a quality matchup, Conklin is your guy for a dollar.

 

 

 

Daniel Jones- QB- Giants

Giants quarterback Daniel Jones may be available in your league for a dollar this week. The Giants face the Commanders, whose defense has given up the 11th most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. Jones faced the Commanders two weeks ago and recorded 25 completions for 200 yards and a touchdown. Last week against the Eagles, he had 18 completions for 169 yards and one score. Jones has been a consistent fantasy quarterback this season, with only two games under 15 points. If you need a reliable 20-point quarterback, Jones might be available in your league for a buck.
