FanDuel Week 7 GPP Breakdown
Below, I'll focus on players I believe to be strong tournament plays based on multi-touchdown upside and low projected ownership. I won't blurb chalk plays (Carson Palmer, Philip Rivers, Devonta Freeman, Todd Gurley, Larry Fitzgerald, DeAndre Hopkins, John Brown, Martavis Bryant, Stefon Diggs*, Antonio Gates*, Stephen Gostkowski, and the Rams) -- they're all justifiable GPP options -- particularly Freeman and Gurley -- but you won't take home big money by stuffing your entire lineup with chalk. Use chalk plays selectively, a few at a time, filling out the rest of your lineup with a few players likely to be low-owned who have that multi-touchdown upside, allowing you to differentiate from the field and shoot up the leaderboard. As usual, I draw heavily from my Ownership Outlook column, and all the players I highlight below are players I believe you should have more exposure to than the field will. Since who you fade can be just as important as who you play in a GPP, I've also added a "Fades" section at the end where I briefly highlight any highly-owned players that I believe you should have less exposure to than the field, or no exposure to at all.

Passing Game
After playing only 15 percent of the snaps in Week 1, Michael Floyd ($4,900) has gone on to command 20 percent of the Cardinals’ red zone targets since Week 2; just as many as John Brown. Floyd has seen seven or more targets in two of his last three games, and has seen throws 20-plus yards downfield on 38 percent of his routes. Against a Ravens’ defense ranked 31st in WR aFPA, deep threat Floyd could pay off his near minimum-salary in one play. The Ravens have allowed the fourth-most 20-yard passing plays in the league. Floyd was in two percent of lineups on Thursday.
