Daily fantasy presents a new challenge every week, with football fans looking to put together the best lineup possible from a menu that offers literally every player taking the field on Sunday.

Last week was another hit-or-miss week for our value plays — Adrian Peterson fell apart after his hot start, but Evan Engram finished as a top-5 tight end on the day, and Allen Hurns as a top-15 receiver.

This week, we’re back at it, trying to identify the best, affordable players for your DraftKings lineup. Everyone wants to load their teams with studs sure to light up the box score, but it’s finding the undervalued players that allows you to max out your budget on the likes of A.J. Green and Tom Brady this week.

Below we’ve picked some of our best value plays for daily fantasy this week. Consider them when trying to find a few extra dollars to upgrade elsewhere in your lineup.
